HotseatPlaying Time

[S.P.Q.R. Praetorian]

Is there sometime I can hook up with about 2-3 other players, and start either in the Baltic region, or do France, HRE, and England. I havent played hotseat yet although I have tryed the system and would like to play with others.

[Meister Sibrand]

cool ill play in either. If we do baltic id love to be lithuania and if we do france, HRE, And England can i maybe be Scotland? Ill dominate an AI controlled England. Warning tho, I use cheats usually so if i suck sorry

[S.P.Q.R. Praetorian]

Heh. I occsionaly cheat too, although usually its just the toggle_fow.

Bah. I found out you dont play with someone else at the same time, it is a downloaded shared one which sucks, but Ill do it anyway I guess.

I want either HRE, or England.

The current issue is alliances. Who is going to be whos ally? I want to be ally with whoever plays england, and france allied with scotland. If you look at history it will make sense why I say this.

[Meister Sibrand]

im a process_cq Man. im very impatient

[Nightbringer]

I would be into this, what version and addons are you talking about? I would play HRE or poland in the baltic one

[S.P.Q.R. Praetorian]

I have Echads 2.0 addon, and SS 5.1. And if you want HRE then I will take France?

So what do you guys say. I dont care which one is done first.

Balt or West Europe?


And what about things like alliances?

[anthony210]

Ill play England if it hasnt been claimed yet, if it has then whatever faction hasnt been claimed yet ill play it.

[Nightbringer]

i dont have echads thing but i assume i would need it, what does it do, and is there a reason i wouldent want it?

[S.P.Q.R. Praetorian]

Ill play England if it hasnt been claimed yet, if it has then whatever faction hasnt been claimed yet ill play it.

Okay, you have england because I claimed France, so the hotseat will begin soon.

i dont have echads thing but i assume i would need it, what does it do, and is there a reason i wouldent want it?

It includes a couple of fixes like a 5.1 bug patch, renames Milan to Genoa, and the double roads are no longer a problem. And yes, I suppose you will need it.


So, how many turns per person? 1-4?

And the toggle_fow, and process_cq cheats can be used although neither will do much good.

So there is, France(me), anthony210(england), Nightbringer(HRE), and sibrand is scotland althoug he can change factions before we start and so can everyone else, but I am sticking.

And if you guys are still up to the challenge we can do the baltic next.

[Nightbringer]

sounds awesome, i wanna start asap

what do you mean 1-4 turns per person?

[anthony210]

Yep ready to go whenever, lets start asap.

I also dont understand what you mean by 1-4 turns a person. Dont you just take 1 turn then upload the save?

[S.P.Q.R. Praetorian]

Yep ready to go whenever, lets start asap.

I also dont understand what you mean by 1-4 turns a person. Dont you just take 1 turn then upload the save?

Uh, just one turn them.

Ill get it goin but Ive never played hotseat before so, I upload, then whoever plays next plays their turn and uploads again?

[Meister Sibrand]

sweet so excited! I will be the highlanders and attempt to form the UK

[S.P.Q.R. Praetorian]

sweet so excited! I will be the highlanders and attempt to form the UK

Okay, then Ill get started before tonight.

[Meister Sibrand]

cant do add money either can we im gonna get destroyed

[Nightbringer]

no cheatzin now, i dont know any cheats (cept toggle_fow) and it would ruin the fun for me even if i did.

[S.P.Q.R. Praetorian]

It would depend, I use it when playing VH/H about one or two times, because the enemy is tougher. Sorry for taking a while to start it, but I have been very busy in real life.

[Nightbringer]

what difficulty, h/h? and no cheats!

[S.P.Q.R. Praetorian]

SS is pretty hard, lets do M/H. And the toggle_fow cheat is allowable, and if someone wants to use up all money with process_cq go ahead. I find that cheat as a detrement because it eats up all money.

I never played hotseat before, do I upload and another take a turn, then it is uploaded again, etc?

[anthony210]

Im pretty sure you play your first turn, then upload and say whos next. They take their turn, upload and then the next person goes etc. Until it comes back to you then you take your turn again and the whole thing starts over.
