DKB

[valjean]

I figure I would chime in here to let the board know me.

I am a avid sim/PBeM player, at the strategic level a lot of it was/is BattleTech, with some AD&D Birthright and some other random games. I have also been Co-Admin for some games.

I admit that I am having a tough time understanding the rules you all have set up, but am working to educate myself quickly. Thank you to the players that have already offered, and are, helping and I am sure I will be asking a lot of questions.

That being said I would understand if the players feel I should be in a different state to start. The reason I sent inquires about DBK is that it is a large part of the present story and a very active part of this world. To leave it dormant could cause more harm than good, since its acting as a counter weight to other nations is now slipping.

As I stated to the Moderators, I am willing to assist the game where ever there is a need to be filled.

I look forward to seeing you all in the game and hope to get set up soon.

Welcome aboard Valjean  ;)

It's always difficult for a new player to understand & digest the rules.

After a few weeks, It 'll be better.

If I could help sometimes...

Welcome to the Sim, my advice would be initialy atleast take a smaller country (NUS maybee if I can convince Sam to take a larger one DKB I hope).

Ha, it all depends on personal taste really. I took Ireland at first and the 1 BP capacity was too hard to work with for me. Well, regardless, welcome aboard Valjean, I hope you enjoy your stay here.

I am an old hand at this and I STILL don't understand the rules! (thought I AM making progress...)  :P

I have probably the smallest active nation in the planet, and I actually like it. It's a good challenge trying to build a sufficiently large fleet without any cash. I actually think smaller nations are more fun than say France were if you want a battleship, you don't ask, you just build it.

Get it right its France where you dont think, You just build 4 of them.

Hello,

I loved the Birthright Realm. Could never get a game group together though. That is actually from whence I derived my Moniker. From the term 'HighBlooded'.

I would love to see an active Ottoman (they are right in the middle of the scene  :o -guaranteed action )or Ukraine (though I may do my best to dismantle the kingdom  ;) ). The ottomans are up to 1912 with miketrs help. The Ukraine is up to 1914 with Eugenius and My assistance(though it could be backtracked easy enough).

(though I AM making progress...)

Are you sure about that?  ;)    DF is N3s whipping boy. ;D

[Desertfox]

Progress in terms of understanding the rules.

Now progress in terms of changing my nickname has been and will continue to be nonexistant.  ;D

I haven't done too shabbily. I have shattered the navies of three nations and bloodied five more, and I have yet to be decisively defeat, despite having fought five nations at once during the last round. Heck, I think that barring French involvement, I can actually win this war against Italy.

Wellcome!
I fully agree with your assesment - the lack of players for global/regional powers like the UNK or DKB is bad for the game.

One problem solved.  ;) All hail Kaiser Sachmle!!

[P3D]

No I don't understand. The thread started whether we could give Valjean the DKB  even if it was reserved for Khymerion. Then what Sachmle is doing in Germanic livery?

[maddox]

A lot of PM's have gone over that last night.

Sachmle can have the DKB livery on following conditions.

1)  If Valjean doesn't object vehemently
2) Swamphen has first dibs if he ever returns.

[Sachmle]

Me and Valjean worked out a deal. He takes over NUS so he can get his feet wet w/ a reasonable, but smaller nation, and DKB gets some stability.

And the whole thing is Borys' fault, it was his idea.  :P

Congratulations for the promotion  ;)  ;)  ;)

Farewell Allianza  :'( :'( :'(
