Rollcall and Other Misc. Statistics

I've penciled you in for the Ottoman Empire with (Maybe).

[The Rock Doctor]

Excellent...

[Kaiser Kirk]

Minor Powers Unfilled:
Italy
Netherlands
Austria-Hungary

Countries not mentioned are probably extremely tiny (navy-wise).

I was thinking that at this juncture - with Rumania expanded into Hungary, and Austria stripped of much of her area- including the Illyrian coast in need of defense, and very limited naval access, she probably wouldn't even be a minor naval power.  Spain is more likely but isn't listed as even a minor. Both would be in a similar category as Brazil and Argentina were.  IMHO.

[Logi]

Hmmm, that's a good point.

The reason I didn't list Spain is I presumed the Spanish-American & Spanish-Japanese Wars effectively wiped out it's fleet.  I'll remove Austria-Hungary from the Minor list.

[Kaiser Kirk]

Well, the historic Dutch fleets were pretty pathetic, while, the temporary destruction of the Spanish fleet would seem more like a reassessment and potential rebuilding period. The only question would be if they had sufficient reason to have one.

Revenge? 

Prickly Spanish honor and all.

Here at training on State owned computers, there's a State filter on the internet so I can't see the map, and I can't see the overseas assets (if any) remaining to Spain.

Navies are expensive, though some nations do field them for pride.   Persia is the one I wish was developed enought to be be viable, as it's in a good location for a minor power- but the best it could do is probably on par with Finland. Though I love the Finnish Vainamoinians- all those dinky overarmed CDS.

As to the deadlines, I've made my comments as a kibbitzer. Be interesting to see what you all manage to get going, best of luck.

[Logi]

What image/video containers formats / providers , if any, are allowed through the State filter?

Spain owns no overseas assets, at least that I know of.

Lots of social media and other sites are banned. I think most downloads are banned. All I get here is a big white box that vanishes if I click on it. I remember some of the changes- like to the Austrian Empire, but not all, esp Spain as I wasn't looking at that :)

REVENGE!!!!!!

(of course all I can think about when I hear Spanish Honor is Bonzo Madrid from Ender's Game, who wanted revenge no matter what.)

It seems to me that most topics are closed. Is there anything else that you guys can think of that needs to be done before we start posting the rules and setting deadlines for startup reports?

Could we get a sample spreadsheet for the start-up reports?  Or more importantly, for the half-year reports?

I think that as long as everything gets posted in one place, the formatting does not relay matter for startup reports. I will post mine a bit later today. Will need to get to work on a spreadsheet.

[Logi]

If no one has made a spreadsheet by the coming weekend, I'll make one. But otherwise, as Snip said, the formatting doesn't really matter.
