I will let Ronnie do the turn. These are the orders I send him:

Allied impulse 5 N/D 1939

France combined
CW combined
US pass

No port attacks

Naval air:
CW flies their Vildebeest into the North Sea 3-box

Naval movement:
France moves their sub in Calais to Bordeaux.

CW moves their 7 BBs in Plymouth into the 3-box of the North Sea
CW moves their Dutch cruisers (3 of them) to the 4-box of the North Sea.

Groundstrikes:
CW groundstrikes the hex SE of Bardia with ART. It is a failed attempt (rolls 5,7 and 5)

No rail movement


Land movement:
France moves their 1-3 division NE of Marseilles a hex west (NW of Marseilles) and the CAV in the French alps crosses the river westwards onto the plains two hexes SW of Lyons.

CW moves their 6-4 INF SE of Bardia into Bardia, they move their 3-3 Indian INF to Wavells hex in Egypt and they move the Dutch INF to Amsterdam.


No landcombat.


Air rebase
The fighters in the southeast of England rebase to be able to protect their Dutch brethren in Amsterdam. 2 FTR in Harwich and 1 FTR SW of Harwich (doesn´t matter which ones are where)



The advance into Bardia

That all depends what bar you go to and if you wear a surgical mask.

Can we play this using different versions?



Orm -> RE: GLOBAL WAR COUNTER-FACTUAL (W1/Wilhelm vs rkr1958/jp) (3/14/2020 6:01:21 AM)

No, you can't.



warspite1 -> RE: GLOBAL WAR COUNTER-FACTUAL (W1/Wilhelm vs rkr1958/jp) (3/14/2020 7:36:03 AM)

Well that's a problem as I've got games going with 7 different players.....I'll post something when I get back from Dad's Taxi Service.



warspite1 -> RE: GLOBAL WAR COUNTER-FACTUAL (W1/Wilhelm vs rkr1958/jp) (3/14/2020 9:58:01 AM)

To Jesper, and WILHELM - are you intending to change to the new patch?



jesperpehrson -> RE: GLOBAL WAR COUNTER-FACTUAL (W1/Wilhelm vs rkr1958/jp) (3/14/2020 12:11:46 PM)

I suppose so. I assume the patch solves some issues so what is the downside?
I am in a similar position as you with more than 1 game going but it is just a moment to patch the game no?

I am but if that's a problem I can play this game with the older version you're using. In fact, I just (re)sent the game file down-converted to 3.1.0.1.

Assuming it's ok with everyone, and until otherwise directed, I intend to play this game with version 3.1.0.1 and my other two games (Axis vs composer99 & Allied vs Jesper) with the latest publicly available version which currently stands at 3.1.0.2.

I've found it's pretty straight forward to run multiple versions of MWiF, as long as they're fairly close in version number (e.g., 3.0.0.0 to 3.1.0.2 is ok; but 2.0.0.0 to 3.1.0.2 wouldn't work). The only caveat is that for a given game all players need to run that game with the same version.

I get confused easily enough with computers so would prefer to have one version. All my opponents have responded they are happy to switch - just waiting for WILHELM to confirm. If he is agreeable I suggest we upgrade and run this game on the new patch if that is okay?

Perfectly fine with that. [:)]

Ok fine by me. We go on with the new 3.1.0.2 version.
Japan chooses a land move. We do nothing till the movement phase.
The Chinese and pretty busy with some kind of a Gordian knot.
Lets see how the my Japanese are with puzzles.
