    The time for this game has been set, it will not be changed to appeal to individual members. If you cannot attend, do not sign up.

    This week's game will be a bit different, we're going to be using share countries.

    It's this Friday at 9:00pm EST
    Alternate times zones listed here

    Sign up will end at 6:00pm EST on Friday

    I can host up to 15 people plus myself
    Anyone is welcome to join

    Darkest Hour 1.02 **NOTICE** Steam copies of the game will NOT work. We will not compromise for you, you must obtain a second copy elsewhere.
    Kaiserreich Mod for Darkest Hour 1.2 Final

    I'll be hosting a Skype call starting at 8:45pm EST
    Add austinhoffmaster on Skype and message me there to let me know you want to join (if I am not already one of your contacts).

    The game will begin at the designated time, if you're not in the lobby, you won't be allowed to join, no exceptions.
    Look for the game hosted by Chives with the description, "NKVD forums".
    The password will be: moopus


    Since it's going to be a share countries game, only four countries will be playable:
    German Empire
    Russia
    Commune of France
    Union of Britain

    Also note that I MIGHT be streaming this game night.
    I won't be recording it.

    If you're interested in joining, make your voice heard below.
    It'll be first come, first serve.

    If you're stupid and don't pick one of these four countries, I won't humor you and let you pick one after you choose Austria.
    I'll be playing as the Union of Britain.

    Exactly how it sounds, multiple people play as the same country.

    How does more than one player play a single country, though? Do they divide up responsibilities? Or territories? What does each individual player do?

    They just have to decide who's in charge of what, however they feel it is best done.

    Wouldn't that mean you're playing as one person?

    Yes. I just wanted to state that it would be both of us playing as one person.

    It has worked before, I remember when we first did, can't remember who suggested it though, there were various offices they would roleplay there respective ministers, army was designated as only controlling the army, same with navy, airforce and economy,

    When we did it originally we had 6 offices:

    Head of state:in charge of events and research and grand strategist
    Head of government: diplomacy and espionage
    Head of the Army: controls the land units
    Head of air force: controls air units and coordinates with land and sea forces
    Head of naval forces: controls the naval units
    Chief of development: controls research, and production, but takes orders directly from head of state

    This is the ultimate form of teamwork for this game aswell as roleplay in a sense, will be fun to watch.

    Its a shame the Steam version will not work. Id've liked to have joined. Why doesn't the Steam version work exactly, perhaps there's a way around the problem?

    Once again, slydessertfox got his times messed up lol. We will in fact not to be playing as one person because we will be home by that point. So, keep him as German Empire he says and sign me up for Russia. By the way, a good thing to do would probably be a separate skype call for each country.

    Each country can decide how to divide their responsibilities which ever way they see fit.

    Ask @Karakoran about it.

    Obviously, I can't manage four different Skype calls and the policy of other people hosting their own calls stands, each group is more than welcome to host their own call.

    Steam doesn't allow mods, and Kaiserreich is a mod, the way around the problem is to buy another copy.
