Long time casual player who has AI experience. Am looking for another non hard core player to try Reluctant Admiral scenario. Am willing to japan and house rules are of course negotiable. Normally can do a turn a day, sometimes more on weekends and I'm in EST

Have an open slot for an allied or Japanese player if that's the side you enjoy. I am trying to learn the Japanese side. Here are the house rules I would like:

Game options

Advanced weather on,
Allied DC on,
PDU on,
Historical first turn -off,
December 7th surprise -on,
Reliable torpedoes -off,
Realistic R&D -off
No units withdrawals -on.
Fixed Reinforcements- on
Set All facilities to expand - on
Auto upgrade ships and air groups - on
Accept air and ground replacements -on


Yea, the 4E restriction seems like a popular house rule so something must be there.

The one I like for PP (even with the garrison stuff) is
Player must pay PP to move restricted units across borders. exceptions:
- US-Canada and Manchuria-Korea borders can be ignored
- Thai troops can move to Burma and Malaya
- Restricted Chinese troops that historically operated in Burma/ India can cross borders without paying PP

I'm pretty basic on turn 1.
- Allies only issuing new orders in China. (As it is the only ongoing conflict)
- Japan not allowed to hunt the allied carriers on the first two turns.
- No attacking both Manila and PH on turn one.
- Japanese 1st turn invasions will not feature any warp landings and will only be on Malaya or Borneo or Philippines areas. All bases there are fair game.

I would be interested in playing the Allies, I am an experienced Allied player, never played the Japanese.

I have not played for quite a while, and all my previous experience has been as the Japanese. I would suggest a few changes to your house rules, whatever side you play, and whoever your opponent is:

Realistic R&D -on. Quite playable, I know.
No units withdrawals -off.
Fixed Reinforcements -off. Gives a bit of uncertainty and fog of war.

Also, I recommend BtS Lite over RA. The latest version is much more polished, and looks to be quite balanced.

If you are interested, Between the Storms and BTS-Lite have been more recently updated. RA is much more balanced now then the older version that Dan and I are playing. Let me help if you need.
