I don't have a problem with the rollback just a question. Once we rollback again do I need to send in my origional Helheim turn setting it to ai?

My understanding is that you shouldn't, as you've already sent the turn in, and it's the most recent turn llamaserver has on file for Helheim turn 15. So it should just default to that file and carry out the actions in it, which is "go AI controlled".

I think.

Am I correct in understanding that once we do the rollback, the only nation which needs a new turn file is Mictlan (which should be the old turn 15 file before the first rollback)?

I know this Thanksgiving holiday isn't celebrated anywhere except the USA, but we view it as a time to say thanks for family and friends, and the things we have,whether they be great or small.

I just wanted to wish all of you a Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family



(OK, now that is over, let the fighting continue)

Two things:

1) At peoples' request, I've extended the turn timer to 48 hours.

2) What are peoples' views on subs honoring or not honoring preexisting NAPs from the original players? Is this bad form, or is it legit?

Not knowing all the diplomatic things that went on I would say that the norm is something along these lines.

When a sub takes over either he usually asks for any existing nations that have a diplomatic status (War, Nap, Mutual defense pact etc) to restate thier agreements.

IF, he doesn't then I would think that the person who has any of those agreements, would surely let the new player know.

I personally don't think if no one has said anything to each other that you can hold them to an agreement that they didn't know about. That could be construed as 'waiting to see what happens so you could keep options open' or something similar to that I guess.


Not my game, but we had that same situation happen more than once and that was the concensus in some other games. I guess if you would ask 10 people you would get about 4 different answers.

NOW, if he knew about them in no uncetain terms, that is a different ballgame and all should be held accountable. Is this a game where Naps are honered, or one that you make them at your own risk. Since it is a Noob game, I would think that most would say they should be honored.....agian, this is ONLY an opinion as it isn't my game. I just was reading forums as I was bored.
