If you join, you will be required to make an account on our private forums.

Mod:
We will be using a mod, but it's very easy to install. Just copy your Victoria 2 HoD folder to your deskptop or anywhere, and extract the mod files into the extra Vicky 2 folder, then launch Vicky from that folder's .exe for the sessions. If you have any questions, post here or PM me.

Sign-up:
Please post on this thread if you want to join.

Expectations: PLEASE READ
If you want to join, you have to be prepared to make an embassy(doesn't have to be fancy) for your country on our forums, be able to make every session and not be late(it's fine if you miss 1-2 sessions, but if you know you're gunna be busy and potentially missing a lot of sessions, please don't sign up).

You're also expected to participate in forum diplomacy, ESPECIALLY if you pick a Primary Country/GP. We will be very picky about who gets a GP. If you're a Primary country/GP, you have responsibilities. We will have a private forum for diplomacy that is used inbetween sessions(not during). Mini-AARs are not required but encouraged.

Nation Preferences
To pick a nation, list your top 4 preferences in order, and you will get one of them(if someone has picked something, you can still pick it, the GMs will decide who gets it based on who we think would be better and would be more active diplomatically)

Example:
1. Austria
2. Sweden
3. Brazil
4. UK

Primary nations/GPs(min required for MP, 8):
UK
France
Russia
Prussia
Austria
OE
Sardinia-Piedmont/Two Sicilies
USA

Secondary powers(you can't pick any nation outside the Primary/GP country list or this list):
Spain
Sweden
Japan
Netherlands
Belgium
Portugal
Brazil
Mexico

Rules:
The rules will be decided on and posted later.

Roster:
Please sign up asap if you want to join, when we have enough people, I will post the official roster, then you may post your embassies and we'll move this to the private forum.

Teamspeak:
Be sure to also download TS for the sessions and be there right before the session, you don't need a mic, we use it for rehosts, if someone crashes etc.

Hi there. I posted in the Vic2 forums yesterday, but I thought I'd try here. If you still have room, I would like to join your Friday sessions. It looks like I can make every session, and I'm a dedicated Vic2 player, having played nearly 2000 hours, mostly using PDM.

If you have room, here's my list:

1. Belgium
2. Columbia
3. Chile
4. Argentina (if it's an option)

Just so you know, of the countries you listed, only Switzerland and Denmark are not already taken, and as we have a Sweden, Denmark may not be an amazing pick.

Feel free to list some others, and we'll see what Lotos says about things.

HHFD50, refer to THIS LINK to see maps of our game so far. I'm not sure if you could do much with Denmark or Switzerland. I believe Denmark has had most of its colonies taken and is sphered by the NGF. I think the Swiss are sphered by the UK - but not exactly sure.

If you'd rather, you could play a South American nation - Brazil is a player and is sphered by France. All the rest are AI-controlled right now and are sphered by the USA, except for Argentina, which is sphered by the NGF. The USCA is about to come under Mexican rule, so I don't think they're a good option.

We started already(it's around 1848 now), but I guess you could join. You can pick from Switzerland or Chile/Argentina/Peru, I'd recommend Chile. Post an embassy. Switzerland doesn't even have a sea port.

Yeah, you would definitely have more fun playing as say an asian country, or a latin american one. The gameplay is of course somewhat different (especially with an asian country), but you would definitely have more fun because you would be less crowded by human players than say if you played Switzerland and would have more room to maneuver; nations like Panjab and the Chinese Empire would probably be good to go with, since you will have alot of options in Asia. In South America, Chile or Argentina would be fun to try and give Brazil a competition for South American dominance.

I though China was a bit buggy? Anyway, a human China would do wonderful things for the game. Otherwise, yeah, Chile, or Korea maybe, might be a bit fun.

I'm sure there are some edits that would make you competitive.

fyi, I'm only allowing Switzerland, Chile, Argentina, Peru, Bolivia.

We don't allow China in MP, and other countries may interupt with other peoples' plans and diplomacy that has already happened(Russia/Japan about Korea, etc). Especially since we've already started. Switzerland and other SA nations won't effect anyone much.

Hey, philly_boy here from the Paradox Forums. I was invited to join the game but I only just saw the invitation. I would very much like to join in the game if that is ok now that it has started. I would like to play Austria, but seeing as the game has already started, this is my preferred order of countries based on what is available:

1. Posted Image Greece
2. :BIDAN: Denmark
3. :BIARG: Argentina
4. :BIROM:/:BIMOL: Romania or Moldavia (I know it starts out as a puppet of the Ottomans, but I think it would make for interesting roleplay)

I wanna give this group a third try when i'm allowed to. First game fizzled because people bought EU4, 2nd game was a waste of time because of arguing over russia/france westbanking prussia. This one I am ready to pay my dues as some small obscure nation. Eidur or Claudius hit me up on steam.

Pick would be GM's Suggestion.

Europe is waaay to crowded already, IMO. This guys should get asian/american countries to balance things up.

Punjab sounds reasonable. I'd say Persia too, but seems it's going to get eaten soon :D
