Front Sheet 31/10

This information can be found in the main body of your email with every turn
we send.... :slight_smile: I'd advise players to read it from time to time as it has a
lot of useful information.

Hello Everyone

** UK Face-to-Face game. Okay I have 18 that are up for it, 2 dithering. So
if you are interested then do please get in touch. Ideally we need around
22 players.

*** Your XML and PDF will now be zipped up as one file and attached rather
than as two attachments. This should sort out most of the problems
associated with the AOL and similar servers - if not get back to us as we
need to know. Don't forget to use the LATEST version of AM - 2003e.2 - the
XMLs don't work with earlier versions. Note if you don't have access to an
unzipping program they are freely available via:

www.Winzip.com

*** Okay the uploaded the Middle Earth mapping program, called Palantir is
working well. It's available on our website, via the Library and Links
page.

Hope that helps clear up any misunderstandings.

The following new games are filling up.
1650 2wk [Game 7]: 8 nations available.[19/10/03]
1650 Gunboat 2wk [Game 8]: 9 duo of nations available [31/10/03]
I am thinking of adding the extra rule to this one that if a nation is
eliminated and the other nation dropped I'll offer that alive nation to
anyone in the team to pick up. They won't get the dead nation's information.

2950 2wk [Game 233]: 16 nation available. (29/9/03)
1000 2wk [Game 41]: 9 nations available - 2 DS 8 N 6 F taken [11/8/03] One
more Neutral let - then the rest Aligned nations.

Grudge Games we need opposition for:
1000: Scott Baltes 12 player - with regions and other snazzy rules
2950: Chris M (10)
1650: Jesus Alonso (12 - some players doubled up)

Setting up in a game:
When I get all 25 nations into the game I will allocate you your choice of
nation from the list of nations that you have sent me - please send multiple
nation choices as this helps to get everyone their 1st or 2nd choices - if
too many choose only 1 nation the system falls apart. All nations are
potentially available until I set up the game.

Descriptions of the type of game follow - please check this when contacting
me with regards playing in that game. When joining with allies please tell
me so that I can help out. You cannot join 1650/2950 games as Neutral with
an aligned or Neutral ally.

Up to 2 nation game: You can play one or two Aligned nations, or one Neutral
nation.
2 nation game: You must play two nations.

Note please ask for variant games we can try to get you opposition for them
if you are interested - mostly Grudge teams though - if I get 10 players for
any single type of game then I will put it up for general availability below
and push it, always check the rules for variant games;

I have drop-outs available - don't forget you get a free turn for taking
these up...
E [Early] = 0-10 turn, M [Midgame]= 11-20, L [Late game] = 21+ [A= Aligned
if a Neutral, N= not aligned if a Neutral, P = Postal and Email game, G=
Grudge, 1w = 1week game, 3w = 3week game]
Bofa: None
1000: Neutral (e)
2950: None
1650: Eothraim (e)
Gunboat: None

(Please note past turns for all these nations are available) Ask for
specifics on what is available.

Thanks
Clint
