OK I am right now creating a new batch of blitz games.

Ive expanded it to be 1000x1000 and 50 province maps.
Ive expanded it to accept up to 4 players per game.
And Ive put the "start" button back so if you want to play a 2 or 3 or 4 player game then you can. Be sure to use EXIT instead of START unless you are sure that you are ready to start the game.

BLITZ refers to the speed that such a game can be played. The "Q" quick switch is on so whenever all the players have turned in a turn, it will process. So you can play turns every couple of minutes if you all want to. Also it has a 24 hour switch to keep the game from getting stale because of one player.

Thanks Gandalf!

I try it out and uploaded an pretender on port 8237 first mid era game.

Do it start automatical when 4 players upload pretenders or have we start it manually?

At 4 players it will start automatically.

The blitz games seemed to go over better than the demo games. Next round I might try something abit different.
