I've got the hots for boardgaming right now, so I'm wondering if there is interest among Languishites to start up a game of Virgin Queen via Cyberboard/ACTS, like we had in Ye Olde Dayes. Sign up in this thread if you are interested. If there are enough people we could begin this weekend or early next week.

Languish is truly dying. :(

Alas, I am more in a "classic" wargamy mood nowadays

Didn't notice this thread until now.  I'm game, of course.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

I could give it a whirl again if you need a sixth to start the game.  If you end up finding 3 others without me it won't hurt my felines.

Berkut

Always ready for another Languish VQ game.

Solmyr
Habbaku
Maximus
sbr
Berkut
Tamas

I'm setting up the game in ACTS, will randomly deal out the countries. Get the updated VQ Cyberboard files here:

Country distribution as follows:

Ottomans: Habbaku
Spain: Solmyr
England: Berkut
France: Maximus
HRE: Tamas
Protestants: sbr

Feel free to switch at this point if you like. I've just played Spain in a tabletop game, so I'll gladly swap if someone wants it.

I've added Habs and Berk on ACTS, but didn't find the rest of you, so Max, Tamas, and sbr give me your contact info there.

Hey Solmyr, where did the updated gamebox and scenario come from? Anything really new in it?

We should setup a shared DB folder for move files.

The update was made by me, fixing a few errors and organizing counters a bit better (unlimited markers are now actually unlimited, etc). Mainly the stuff mentioned in 1.3 update here (https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/804663/cyberboard-gamebox-now-available), which apparently was never posted anywhere.

Solmyr

Recreated the game now, Max and sbr still need to register on ACTS/give me their info.

Also created a shared DB folder, you should be getting an email about it: https://www.dropbox.com/home/VQLanguish

Hmmm, I have the 1.3 gamebox. Not sure where I got it though. Not sure how different it is from your work, either...

Probably much of the same, but as I said, I also reorganized counters for better sorting and usability.
