@cpa, got you.
However, as Will has announced, you all will be able to choose the base you want without being restrainted to the continent you are in right now. However, once you have chosen a base, the continent/region it is in would be the one you base in in the following round. In other words, you don't need to post here for continent changes at the start of next round. However, if you want to change continent after you have started the next round, you would need to post here / contact a staff member.
