yeah that kind of name-calling is totally uncalled for. You would do better to treat players with respect, especially since you are admin (co-admin, acting-admin whatever).

Whenever you use language like you did in your post, you can expect to start an argument. It's just the way things go on internet forums. If you don't want drama then don't start things up.

Also, you should know that posting PM's without permission is against the forum rules.

OK, whether you like, don't like, agree, disagree, or just don't care, this is over.

Science pro,I appreciate you showing me a link to the rules and will be sure to read it this evening. VFB has already posted on here and I find that sufficient.

As I said, I am not going to change my mind about this situation, but there always are two sides to the story.

Lets get on with the game as we have taken enough time for this.
I am trying to be a friend to YSK and look after this game until next Monday, and even tho I have no interest in playing...I am subbing.

I'm sure earcaraxe and I will work this out in our own way in the future.

Soooooooo, unless you guys want to wait until Monday when YSK gets back...lets just stop this here and continue on.

Hi all, I was just reviewing the rules, and I realise I've broken one - I've colonised one water province. I'm really sorry about this, I just didn't realise. I'm not sure what I can do about it, but it has no PD so hopefully it will get an event?

set taxes in the underwater province to 0 so you won't gain gold form it. don't produce any units from it and don't site search it. if you happened to have found a level 0 gem producing site than build 1 commander in that province along with a lab and put all the gems you get from that site alone on your commander each turn. say it's a Kelp Forest that provides 1 Nature gem, each turn you put a single Nature gem on that commander, so you won't be able to use an advantage gained illegally.

Stick the Tax up to 200 and raise some unrest. Or set Tax to 0. What do others think?

*edit* Do you have a castle adjacent to the water province? Then you get a little bonus resource in the castle.

[GrudgeBringer]

I think in the long term (and less micro-management) if you set the taxes to Max (200 I think) it will give you no benifits in a short period of time and the effects you get now will be negligible.

The big thing is if you get gems from the province, you will just have to be on your honor about that. One vanilla province is not a big thing, 3 or 4 would be.

[Euarchus]

I've stuck taxes up to 200, built a commander and will give him 7 water gems (I think I've had the province 6 or 7 turns), will keep giving them as time goes on. The province is next to a fort, but I don't really use resources, I don't think they've ever been a limiting factor on my build queues. Hopefully this will sort the problem out promptly.

[GrudgeBringer]

I think that will satisfy everyone, and thank you for pointing out the mistake and coming up with a soulution.

If anyone has a better plan, please speak up now..

So one has to own a neighboring province for his castle to be able to suck production from it?

Yup, thats why on turn 1 you can't recruit much but as you conquer the indies adjacent more can be recruited.

Test it with EA Abysia
