Since we had the extra time and I started playing another game with Muspelheim I decided to try a different nation as Ubar. Hope that is ok!

Fine. All you two-eyes look the same.

Let's hope this time Ulm is not surrounded by slippery sea folk.

I think it's hard for nations like Ulm or really most nations w/o amphibious nationals to reliably get underwater in 1st year.  It starts being possible for a lot of nations with construction 3 + couple other techs, otherwise you have to hope for ichtyids, merfolk, or atlantians/shambler provinces.  I think these are more common in Dom 6 based on testing?  Still no guarantee though.

Other issue is that even if you can get UW, most nations can't build forts the normal way there and can't draw resources.  Sailing nations probably want a coastal province but most don't, even fully amphibious nations.

What are these "seas" you speak of? Are they akin to the vast mushroom forests of the Great Cave?

Done.

Good luck (again) everybody!

It makes no difference what men think of war, said the judge.  War endures.  As well ask men what they think of stone.  War was always here.  Before man was, war waited for him.  The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner.  That is the way it was and will be.  That way and not some other way.

If they made nothing but WWII games, I'd be perfectly content.  Hypothetical matchups from alternate history 1980s, asymmetrical US-bashes-some-3rd world guerillas, or minor wars between Upper Bumblescum and outer Kaboomistan hold no appeal for me.

I guess it's sort of nice that the word "tactical" seems to refer to some kind of seriousness during your moments of mental clarity.

I am unable to get the game to load.
When I select Groggies the return from the Network menu I get a box with "Exit" in it and cannot enter a password or progress from there.

NEVER MIND! Problem solved! It was not a user error. Nope. Definitely not a user error.
Probably.
Well, MAYBE......OK it WAS a user error. Waaah! I confess. I made a booboo.

I heard back from Ajidica, sadly he didn't get my message in time.  He said he's interested in joining the next game!  Which I assume will be Middle Age, since this one is Early Age.
