Status: offline 		My current PBEM opponent Rev Rico are looking to try two person Japanese team vs. one or two Allied players. We had a game going earlier but 3 sunk USN CVs and some lighting quick IJA offensives put an end to Allied resistance in February 1942. So we are looking to get a new game with Rev Rico in charge of the IJN and myself in charge of the IJA.

Our previous opponents voiced some distaste with RA 7.1 so we're willing to try any scenario this time around. Though I'd prefer to use the latest Beta patch as I think they fix some important bugs. Also PDU on please. We can talk more about rules but my current preference is for these rules:

1. Fighters on CAP or SWEEP have a max altitude 10,000' less than their ceiling.
2. No strategic bombing from or in China.
3. 4E Bombers cannot Naval Attack below 6,000'
4. Restricted LCUs crossing national borders must pay PPs
- Restricted Allied LCUs can walk to Akyab
- Thai units can enter Burma and Malaya
5. Restricted air units must be paid for individually and not en masse with an HQ.
6. No uber resizing of CV air units (50+)
7. No surface ship passage thru Malacca straits unless Singapore is owned
8. Night airfield or port bombing limited to a one squadron per target
9. No new Allied TFs turn 1

We will see if anyone else wants to team up with me.

We are fine with a 2 vs 1 or a 2 vs 2. Any other takers?

This bit sounds alarmingly competent.

I don't know much about RA...but liking DBB so far. Was dropped on my head as a baby so may break into a fake Japanese accent at times. Also begin eliminate unnecesary pronouns, articles and verb conjugations to save time.

Having a dedicated IJA and IJN player worked surprisingly well in our fist attempt in a 2 vs 2. And in no small part because Rev Rico is a naval expert and I am a land expert and as a result we each see the war through that lens. Internally the historical narrative between the IJA and IJN arises naturally out of our different perspectives on the war but we get along much better than the historical IJN and IJA. Probably helps that we aren't driven by the insane machismo culture that defined the Japanese military to the point of extreme disillusion that historically occurred.

We are definitely open to DBB as well. I sent a PM to sprior asking him to start an actual email thread to start laying out the framework of the game so we can get started.
