Soon.

Geologic time is delineated mainly by asteroids and comets falling on your head. I hope to get this thing going before the next time. Doing a lot of stuff that could wait, but just want to get it out of the way. Setting up ship conversions e.g. I am going to wait some on most production stuff til later.

What's to say? We agreed to face off in this grudge match before Christmas. I am beginning to suspect that I'll be in either a nursing home or the graveyard before I ever see a turn. Scientist tell us that dinosaurs were not really slow. This one is slower than anyone in a old Harry Hasenhouser film. He moves with a Brontesaurian dash speed. While I intend to possibly use delaying tactics , I'll at least use them IN THE GAME , not to delay the game it's self. I expect that if Geoff could figure a way to delay by discussing the size or shape of the negotiating table he would. So instead of engaging in pseudo trash talk encompassing Italian movie stars , bad literature or photoshopped movie and TV stills, I'll go back to studying the maps , AAR's and game databases. The longer he delays , the better prepared I'll be. [:D]

Someone said it takes 100 hours for the Japanese first turn. I believe them.

Sadly I never got to play this. I was buying the collectors editions as and when they came out (have them all - First To Fight, Balkan Front, Wavell's War, War in the Desert, For Whom The Bell Tolls, Storm over Scandinavia, Second Front) and so was waiting for Total War as the next installment. Sadly that wait has proven to be in vain....[:(]

If I die before the game is over, or even starts, does that count as a draw , a stalemate , or a defeat? [&:][&:][:(][:(]

I'm having technical difficulties getting something to work the way I want. I can't really talk about it but if I can't make it work (and I probably can't, though I thought I had done something close to this before) I'll have to make adjustments to the plan. Have we already set a record of how many pages in an AAR without an actual beginning?

My partner and I kept a game running until September 1943, when he just disappeared. This is probably 5 years ago. Nothing since. Poof gone.

I joked with DivePac before his ultimate death that any escape via that means of our game would automatically render me the winner. [:(] It was meant as an impetus for him to *not* die, but didn't seem to have worked.
