All right ladies and gents, the game is afoot. Your countries are now active, it currently fall and you've got countries to run.

You can change any aspect of your countries policy you want. It's nice to have legal systems and the like, and all that can be changed either openly or via PM to myself or one of the other coordinators.

You can declare war on people, hold trade agreements, talk diplomacy, start moving troops around, whatever. Any building projects you wish to undertake now will have a season or two build time.

Please declare all research subjects, either in your country thread or via PM.

If there's something you want to do and you aren't sure how to do it, PM myself or a coordinator and we'll set you on the right track.

All right, have fun!
