I don't recall ever asking for an updated map. Only four people have made their actions. I'm still waiting for several others. The only people who is allowed to make maps are myself, or someone else I appoint. Because of this, I will not allow you to join the game that I am running. Your actions will never be factored in, and your country will never appear on this map.
Oh, yes. Learn to use GIMP. You'll be able to use transparencies, blur, and quite a lot of other stuff. Once you learn how to use all that, you're work won't look quite like junk.
Actions:
Move the fleet by land 2 to Island 1
Unload all sailors not involved in running the ships, and attack Island 1.
Research:
Research petroleum products.
My strategy for the upcoming battle is as follows:
All nonessential sailors will be converted into impromptu marines. The marines will then be unloaded by platoon. Sailors not ordered to land will provide covering fire, using both hand held weaponry and their ship's cannons, as the marines land. From there, marines will then advance, establishing safe-zones as they proceed, until enemy soldiers are encountered. The marines will then offer the choice of surrender. If this is refused, the soldiers will then group up into fire teams, and attack the enemy using guerrilla tactics and suppressive fire.
