An awake Norse, guess it's time to wake Rome up. Now where was I...
You smug-faced crowds with kindling eye
Who cheer when solider lads march by
Sneak home and pray that you'll never know
The hell where youth and laughter go.

I'm sure we'll be great neighbours  ;)

Great adversaries at least. It was decided back in the map building phase that Rome and The Norse would be at best unfriendly-neutral with each other. This is to prevent a Roman-Norse alliance from locking the Wilno out of the Atlantic.

That's the fun part

I hope this works.

Hello everyone. I was invited to this forum by TacCovert4, who suggested it to me. I'm curious about the sim you all have, and I look forward to learning more about it.

If I can figure out how to navigate the forum, of course. /j

Hi there and welcome.  If you've got questions, let us know and we'll try to help.

Welcome !
Poke about,
ask questions, make comments.

Down the road we should be having 'design competitions' to update the various
NPC nation's navies, and everyone can join in.


If things prove of interest there are empty spots available.
Did they beat the drum slowly,
Did they play the fife lowly,
Did they sound the death march, as they lowered you down,
Did the band play the last post and chorus,
Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest

For sure! I'm interested in maybe taking up a spot, but even just doing some basic designs for the fun of it sounds interesting as well. I'm talking with TacCovert about the sim, and he's already promised to help introduce me to using springsharp.

For both Knight and Smokegrenadiers, I put together that little 'Springsharp guide'.

I do not think it would lead them terribly astray.
Other folks are welcome to look at it and tell me what I should have said :)

I have some things that need doing this next weekend but after that
I will plan on starting the Iberian update with placeholder ships and
then chipping away at it in the following week.
I may write up a brief primer as well.

If either Smokegrenadiers or Knight have any questions/comments, please let us know.

Are we tapping the brakes while Kirk gets Iberia and the North caught up?

Norse & Iberia Status :
Iberia is up to 1927.5
I need to do the fleet AA refits in 1928.0
Then the 1928.5 turn and it's good to go.

I believe I have time this weekend for all that,
and start moving things to the Encylopedias...that will be slower.

Rule Proposal Enclaves :
Still need to post the final phrasing.

Turn 1929 :
It is the first full weekend in November,
but I'd like to get the Iberians and Norse as close
to that 'start' line as I can before
moving to 1929.

Say November 10th?

Works for me as well.  I've gotten a bit behind in my RP side of things.....I intend to get that caught up over the weekend and into next week.
