Stele -> I finally got it (6/7/2014 7:36:10 PM)

For the past few years (ya, I let it go that long), I've wanted to get this game, but work and school have prevented it. I know that my life would disappear into a black hole if I did, but now that school is over I can say I'm an owner of WITP-AE. I remember playing a lot of Uncommon Valor and that I wanted this one. I've followed the forums now and then with envy.

I'm hoping its still not too late and that this game's following is still strong.

I know that certain people in my life anticipated this major move in my life; but I believe I am prepared for all major consequences.

Welcome aboard. Your life is now over.




AW1Steve -> RE: I finally got it (6/7/2014 7:54:43 PM)

Welcome kid! Well done! Now don't get cocky! [:D]

Any questions, ask away. Everybody is here to help! And kibitz! [:D]




geofflambert -> RE: I finally got it (6/7/2014 8:32:05 PM)

I'm not. I'm here to misdirect and confuse. Steve doesn't include gorns in "everybody".




DOCUP -> RE: I finally got it (6/7/2014 9:33:45 PM)

Congrats.  Kiss your life goodbye.  Sounds like you want a PBEM.  Game is still going strong.




CaptDave -> RE: I finally got it (6/7/2014 10:14:25 PM)

And rest assured that this game will never die!




btd64 -> RE: I finally got it (6/7/2014 11:45:20 PM)

Long live WITPAE. Good bye personel time. Tell your wife or girlfriend that you need a little alone time.[:D][:D][:D]. This is a GREAT GAME. Lots of support and good people here. Except the GORN.[:D][:D][:D] GP

My grass is 18 inches high and the dog is lost somewhere out in the yard, but I've got a amphibious landing on Wake Is. going on, can't stop now!! Enjoy




dr.hal -> RE: I finally got it (6/8/2014 12:18:18 AM)

If you have a wife, try to get her to understand that she is no longer your top priority at least during waking hours....

Stele -> RE: I finally got it (6/8/2014 7:06:20 AM)

LOL. I'm loving these comments. Thanks for the warm welcome. Getting my feet wet with the Battle of Coral Sea to familiarize myself with mechanics. A lot like Uncommon Valor, but very fine tuned.




Yaab -> RE: I finally got it (6/8/2014 7:10:14 AM)

Stele, take time to read the manual ( and learn to Control+F its contents) and try to play the Coral Sea scenario before jumping into the grand campaign.




ny59giants -> RE: I finally got it (6/8/2014 11:04:44 AM)

Like others have said, welcome to your first 12 step meeting, "I'm addicted to AE." [:D]

Get the last official patch and then get the latest Beta. They will give you enhancements that make the game even better.

Good advice in general, _Stele. However, please note that the manual has never undergone a revision, whereas the game has undergone a great many. I would look to the printed manual as only a rough approximation of where things are today. Still, not a bad idea to read it.

Very important advice! And there are some PDF documents in the game folders that are new since the manual and which are also worth a read and occasional reference. Do also read through all of the Beta release notes. While necessarily terse, they contain important notes on changes. Expanded information is almost always on the forum already.

_Stele, soon you will be __Stele!

12-step meetings imply the desire to recover.




Yaab -> RE: I finally got it (6/8/2014 5:33:43 PM)

Recover who? Missing pilots? Sunken BBs at PH? Disabled squads?




btd64 -> RE: I finally got it (6/8/2014 7:30:08 PM)

I don't know about recovery. What, its not normal to lock yourself in a room with your computer for 12 hours a day?[sm=00000289.gif][sm=00000289.gif][sm=00000289.gif] GP




tigercub -> RE: I finally got it (6/9/2014 10:31:31 AM)

Enjoy it is a Head full ...with many a fire cracker sitting at the front door!

If you're married, contact a local florist to have roses delivered on birthdays, anniversaries, etc. This will help if you forget because you are planning the invasion of Truk.

Only twelve hours? Are you kidding me? [&:]

Gaspote -> RE: I finally got it (6/11/2014 5:20:02 PM)

Perhaps I should end my tutorial faster so you could try [:(]

Matrix Games. There has to be a continuous generation of customers. Have you been slacking off? We might have to move you to a resexeducation camp.




czert2 -> RE: I finally got it (6/12/2014 3:52:12 PM)

Well, i think i will rather die than to mate with gorn :).

I think mating with a Gorn would be fatal. [:D] And I don't think it would be swift or merciful.

You can always adopt in order to bring new players in. My youngest daughter {we adopted her at age 3 from China} used to sit on my lap and watch me play "Ding Ding" {The bell tones at the startup of the game}.

Of course now that she is older and has an older sister, the only thing she wants to do is watch "Frozen".....which gives me about two hours of uninterrupted play time. Thank You Disney!




Stele -> RE: I finally got it (6/15/2014 4:30:55 AM)

Ok. I recently came across this site after looking through the forum

https://sites.google.com/site/n01487477/

Took me awhile to figure out why I couldn't load troops when I discovered that I had to release them from "restricted." Are there other sites or videos I should be aware of?

I moved on to the Guadalcanal scenario, which is essentially what the game Uncommon Valor covered.
