GMT +2 here, too. Usually taking turns around 0600 UTC and again at 2000 UTC.
@cjcjameson There is a button to edit turn order, in the top-right corner, if i remember well.
Planning the turn order here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ORj8KCtlGmydlDm9nQn2YTjhtmW65YK1ip7Tx8Z21_o/edit?usp=sharing
Starting the game soon
Also:
- Yes secret societies (as long as weāre trying one new game mode, why not another)
- Disasters level 2, nothing crazy
Underway with bull moose teddy rooseveltā¦ sorry about that if you wanted the other oneā¦ maybe make a bug report to Mike? hehe I had a better start on the first save file, but all good no worries.
Good luck, have fun!
Hi everyone, I had to download this mod in order to load the game:

@cjcjameson, I understand you set disaster intensity to 2, but you probably left the mod enabled. Everyone will have to subscribe in order to play.
Also, no problem on the Roosevelts, either one is A-OK.
argh, sorry about the unnecessary mod. I swear that one is like a virusā¦ same thing happened in another PYDT game that another person hosted. They were in a 3rd game that had it, left it on by default when starting the game Iām in, so I had to install it. Now itās spreadingā¦ like wildfire! (and hurricanes and floods and volcanoes)
@cjcjameson Everything alright? This is the second time this week that youāve held the save for 24 hours. Is there anything holding you up?
Sorry, there was a COVID scare at my kidās daycare, so theyāre closed this week and last. So itās been a bit busy. Will try to keep up.
Soā¦ I knocked out Cree because my start position was crappy. Went after India to try to grow to rival Russia. But Russia was about to attack me, so I struck first.
Russia is crushing all of us in everything: military (swords and horses both), science, culture, and faith.
India: Hyderbad is going to go āfree cityā before I have a chance to give it back to youā¦ sorry. If I win it back, can I give it to you, make peace, and have you DOW Russia also? Are you going to get Varu?
Korea: I can give you open borders. Theyāll be comingā¦
America: youāre insulated; thanks for friending me. I think Russiaās got a head start on you in culture; not sure if your economy can eventually catch upā¦
Heh - looks like your anti-Russia coalition isnāt working out.
Even if the whole world DOWs me, no one has swordsmen/horseman in enough capacity yet (except America, I have no knowledge of you yet). How are you going to take my cities/pillage me with ancient era units?
Will we play to the end (when someone gets legitimate victory), or will this be a game where people concede early?
@cjcjameson I have the crapiest land i ever seen!
We still have a chance to band together against Russia! But we need to stick together! Who gets Hyderbad, and move on with our lives for the greater good!
Iāve got some of Russiaās horse/swords semi-stalemated, but itās tenuous. Need cooperation!
Crazy proposal: I give Lublin to Korea, Hyderabad to India, and we all throw in against Russia. Iāll accept an IOU.
America, have you met anyone besides me so far? Can you throw a few GPT my way for the benefit of the cause?
Dude, itās just a game. No need to freak out, give proposals and talk about the āgreater goodā.
The most important thing is to have fun, right? If weāre too frustrated about ābad landā or someone ācrushing all of usā, then we can justā¦quit. Thereās more games, and more potential victories to be found elsewhere.
(That being said, I will gladly fight a coalition if need be. I donāt have much multiplayer experience and Iād love to see how it works out.)
im enjoying the early war, keeps things interesting! the game always has issues with balance and starts and snowballing, just roll a new game and try again
