Why don't I take Austria and you take Germany? Sounds like you have more experience than me so probably better if I'm the junior partner. I'll PM you with strategy ideas/thoughts.

[Altaris]

My first ORD file is posted.

[Mitra]

posted; please guys don't zip the file ord they are always little,it is only more complicated for the receivers

[poweraxe]

ord file posted in dropbox.

[powcarrot27]

mine is posted

[Altaris]

Okay, think I did everything right, I saw Germany take Schefflein Plan, Russia take Grand Duke plan, France take Plan XIII, and I took Koenig Plan. Does that sound right to everyone?

[Mitra]

yeap

[poweraxe]

Sounds right to me.

Event file posted.

[Altaris]

Since we've got the Warplan phase files processed (and backed up), I've removed the ones in the main directory. Let's do that (remove files once everyone has gotten them and processed) to keep things from getting too cluttered.

[poweraxe]

Agreed, the folder should be kept clean. I created the backup folder in the dropbox, for backup purposes anyone can zip the needed files to save and put them there.

[Mitra]

What happen? I saw my events phase in the backup, but I never saw your events ord files? Diplomacy should be the third phase

[Altaris]

Someone removed the Event files. I tried to restore them but could only do 1 file.

I'm pretty sure I still have them in my SaveGame directory, I'll repost when I get home from work.

We may need to work out a better system here so we don't have turns pending getting removed or placed in backup prematurely.

[Mitra]

Let decide like this: only Altaris must manage the files in the directory. Hope the others still have thier .bak files of events turn.

[Altaris]

I think everyone else got the Events files, as we've got 3 Diplomacy files.

[Mitra]

Yeap I suppose, but before have all the other files, the people must not move or cut the previous

[poweraxe]

I managed to restore all the event phase .ord files via the dropbox site (did not delete them btw) - will that do for now?

[Altaris]

I think so Poweraxe! Thanks!

Mitra, if you need anything else, let me know.

[poweraxe]

On the subject of deletion from the folder, its probably a good idea that only one of us manages the files (backups etc) and the others only post ord files. Then we can prevent a problem like this happening again.

[Mitra]

turn processed, my diplomacy is up, THanks guys. Is not very important who has been, I suppose was in bona fide but is better organize like POweraxe suggests: the directory is of ALtaris is better if he manage it

[powcarrot27]

So which stage are we at now? Should it be the 2nd military one?

[Altaris]

If you haven't processed the Diplomacy turn, you need to get the Diplomacy files. After you run the Diplomacy turn, you should be in the first Military Phase and when you generate orders it will state Military at the end, this is the ORD file that needs to go on Dropbox.

I'm open for suggestions on a better way to organize this on Dropbox if you guys have any.

[powcarrot27]

I've processed the diplomacy. I was just making sure I was on the right track.

[Altaris]

Which one of you is Darrel? I show that Darrel just deleted the military phase files. Please don't delete, just copy/paste into your folder.

If you are processing your turn, you need to get the Diplomacy files, process your phase, do your orders, then save and put your Military ORD file out on Dropbox. You shouldn't need to be getting the military files yet.

[powcarrot27]

I think 003 or something like that. It showed i deleted files? Thats odd because i used copy to geest the fies. One thing about combat is that i wasnt expecting the ai to do everything. But it makes sense though.

[Mitra]

syncro verification

Last military turn I had a battle at Tannenberg against the russian, the russians win; I fought and won in Bruxells agaisn the Belgian forces. Can you confimr you saw these battle too?

[poweraxe]

I saw those battles exactly as you described them; looks like the game is in synchronization.

[powcarrot27]

I saw them as described also

[Altaris]

Just waiting on Russia Military Orders

[Altaris]

Orders posted, sorry for delay, been busy.

Think we're just pending Russian military orders now.
