I found it quite humorous that at about 530 Eastern on Monday five or six of the eight players were hanging out online in the Shrapnel forums and a bunch of us had just recently submitted our turns. We are sitting about hoping that Ulm happens to login and submit so that we can do another set of turns!

You think most of us are excited about being in a multiplayer game?

That's great to see! Newbie games really are among the most fun.

I've mentioned this a bunch of times recently so I may be repeating myself but just a reminder that if you are the last person to send in your turn (check the llamaserver to determine this), wait a few minutes for the game to host and then immediately complete your next turn (since turns only take a few minutes to complete). This really helps keep the game moving early on (especially when you consider that people are in different time zones) and that gets everyone into the game.

It is nice to have an enthusiastic bunch and have the game move along quickly. I'm already seeing dark candles on the horizon.

Please, help...

I don't know how , but... the menu of the commanders in the current province (in the left side of the screen) isn't there...

I can't give orders to my commanders. T.T
How can I solve this?


Thank you very much, and I'm sorry because of my noob question. ^^U

Uh-oh, looks like I kept you all waiting in vain for a while. It seems that I went to bed only moments before the hosting, and by the time I read the above, I was out for the very long day and all I could do was stare in frustration at the turn file in my inbox. Rest assured that the trip home in rush hour traffic was spent in contemplation of my worthy adversaries waking up and exclaiming in disbelief, "wtf STILL no turn??" ;)
