Updates

Updates, there are always updates!

I have posted the latest version of the rules, these are the rules that we will be using for at least the next Turn. Most recently this includes adding to the text a number of descriptors of what is the default action by the GM to many circumstances; look for them, read them, it saves on repeatedly asking the same questions of the GM about what is going to happen next.

The most important recent change to the game are the Unit Listings and Facility Listings shared Google sheets. You are free, and indeed encouraged to, list and personalize your assets on your nation's pages on the main website, but the Unit Listing and Facility Listing shared Google sheets are now the official, final record of a nation's facilities, units, and where those units are moving to. It is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to keep these lists properly updated. Note that while the Unit Listings sheet has permissions limiting changes to me, Liam, and the current player, the Facility Listing sheets has no such restrictions, and indeed there is no good way of adding them. This means it will be on your honour to only edit your own entries, and to keep your entries properly updated; this game ends when we cannot be trusted to keep our honour.

Tom Harrison has had to leave the game for personal reasons; all the best Tom, wish you could have stayed. I have had to remove Terry Perdue, Ketil Horn and Michael Morgan from the game for inactivity. To everyone remaining, if you are going to quit the game, at least have the curtesy to tell the GM instead of just disappearing.

Welcome to our newest player, Valdimir Rodinov! He will be taking over China and can be reached at vladimirs.rodinovs@gmail.com Huh, ...3 of our players are now from Russia, of all the things that could have happened I never would have expected that.

Over the next week I will be working on updating the Settlement List and Budget spreadsheets, hopefully they will not require nearly the time consuming rebuild that I had to go through last turn. I have given Liam a skeleton idea of what I want the opening 2050 news articles to look like; he does not believe me but I think it is going to be great. Lluis, Laurnet, Sergey, I hope you are working on what I asked of you, I think it will really improve things.
