Baltic SS 6.0 Hotseat

[thelord]

Hey, Im thinking of starting a small hotseat with factions based in the baltic, with 5 players so its nice and quick I'm thinking with the following factions:

- Novgorod - thelord
- Lithuania - Needs a replacement!
- Denmark -spartan-johnny
- Norway - TriforceV
- Poland - Kaizer Merlox

With the usual rules :
- VH/VH difficulty
- Manage all cities
- Console Disabled

I want it to be a fast running game so I will only accept players who I know to be active and have experience with hotseats. Post here and choose your faction and pm me your password. Once I have all of your details I can host it up.

I choose Novgorod.

[-Aquila-]

Ill take Denmark, but I will be away over the half-term week till that thursay pm. Am I still good to play?

[thelord]

Sure. I can cover as we will be quite far away from each other.

[-Aquila-]

ok kl good to know

[TriforceV]

Never played the nors yet.
think ill give them a shot, Norway

[thelord]

Excellent. send your passes in please SJ and Triforce. Two more players to go.

[demostene]

Poland? I left a BC hotseat, so maybe I can join...

[thelord]

Just need one more as Lithuania then.

[Kaizer Merlox]

too bad that theirs no Teutonic Knights. ; ; (I would be them in a heart beat, If i could be HRE i'd join, even though thats not exactly in the baltic, but it's somewhat in them! (bordering Poland/Denmark) XD

I donno if i can handle Lithuania, they are scary! XD

[thelord]

hmm, I think Norway is.

[Kaizer Merlox]

Now come to think of this, This is almost exactly like the Teutonic Hotseat. =p lol

(I'm taking that as a noooo for HRE?) /cry

[thelord]

Fraid not. That would give you a huge advantage with loads of AI to expand into.

[Kaizer Merlox]

Hmmm, how about if i promise not to expand into hungary / Italy / Frace? still no? >.>

[thelord]

lol. No. Lithuania is the only choice I'm afraid. It creates a nice semi circle between the 5 factions that way. Also I chose Lithuania because it prevents the catholic players ganging up on one player.

[TriforceV]

Hmmm, how about if i promise not to expand into hungary / Italy / Frace? still no? >.>

Hey Lithuania might be fun,
They start off with a crappy fort, but can go anywhere from there.
North, South, East & West..
It's got a pretty decent army too at the start for expanding, but probably most enjoyable is their uniqueness as PAGANS!!
YAY! crazy units

[Kaizer Merlox]

Sign me up as the pagans then. Promise to not team up on me, I'm little! =3

[thelord]

hehe, excellent. Will host the game as soon as you send me your pass Kaizer.

[thelord]

Ok we are ready to go! Good luck everyone. I tried to make the turn order from west to east but it wouldnt work so instead it is :

Novgorod
Denmark
Poland
Norway
Lithuania

So Denmark is now up.

Lets hope we can make this really fast moving.

[thelord]

SJ asked me to cover so here we are.

[demostene]

Norway up.
