I'm the Mamlukes. What nations are you and Bosse?
I'm England again. Bosse is Castile.

Apparently no one got the turn file and the G.M has been informed several times.

England and Castile, eh? Looks like the three of us can support one another quite effectively by pursuing a heavily naval strategy in the long run.

Are you sure you're in the same game as us. The Venetian e-mail is different than the one you used for our MD?

Sorry, my bad, Bosse is Arles.

Even better for naval matters. Arles can help defend Venice on land. Arles does start with a coastal province - do they have a port to start? If we target Sicily and France early on, we can cut Iberia and North Africa off from the rest of the world.

EDIT - Looks like Arles can take an independent port in the first turn to the west. I can help defend Crete too since it's pretty far from Venice.

I'm planning to not make the same mistake as I did in our game and not expand, so I want to take a European province first turn..probably Flanders. If Arles and England take France early on then we can meet up with you guys in Europe..hopefully.

My first confrontation with the G.M. He just sent a mail telling me to get my details from the last turnfile; which I haven't got because this is the first turn πŸ˜•. He then completly failed it acknowledge my (and everyone elses) problem with the nation number. Not impressed.

Don't make the opposite mistake of expanding too quickly. You'll spread yourself too thin and make yourself an inviting target for jealous neighbors.

True, very true. I need to be careful in this game, much more careful.

There is no Harbor next to Arles at the beginning of the game; Languedoc has a Town but no Harbor.

EDIT: My mistake; in our game there is no Harbor there but looking at the recruitment center lists it does say there is a Harbor present, though it can build only Medium Galleys and Merchantmen. The one in game mmw must have gotten destroyed in fighting; there's a 25% of that happening when the Harbor changes hands.

Knight, I've just been contacted by someone who claims to be in control of Venice in this game. Are you sure you're Venice in mne?

At least you won't get involved in any immediate trench fighting.
