My Japanese opponent in one of my RA Games has had to stop due to work related excitement. Am looking for an experienced Japanese Opponent to play the latest version of RA. As one of the Mod Designers I am trying to see how well things work from BOTH sides of the fence.

If interested, please Post below.

Where do you live?

I have played against JonReb only to 1-11-1942, because I was in a motor vehicle accident. I spent many months in hospital and was unable to play game because in coma. I am now recovered and ready to play you. It would be a dream for me. But if I am not experienced enough I would be understanding. I am from Tokyo Japan thank you very much.

I was looking over the RA mod. Are all of the ground units the same as in the standard Da-Babes mod?

I note the statement that flak & ASW are more realistic... Does this mean that flak & ASW are more accurate\effective than the standard AE game or are they less accurate\effective?

OK. Tone let us get the ball rolling. Shoot me your email address through PM or email and we can talk.

Sorry John, I could have warned you about possibility of this, as Tone has gone walkabout (disappeared) on me twice now. I would have PM'd you if I had of read it, but unfortunately I was out of circulation at the time.

Cheers Des.

Well, it won't be that huge a change. My memory banks remind me that you did play as the Allies in a WitP game a few years back. I don't recall your opponent, but I do recall that you continued your very aggressive style of play. You reinforced Wake Island with a Marine CD unit (and other assets, I believe, including aircraft and the presence of combat vessels). I don't think that game went too deep, but you did have my attention because I was trying to get a grip on your style of play. :)

You are correct Sir. Despite your good ole Southern vintage, you have the memory of an elephant! I've played the Allies--precisely--twice. Both games only went about 6-8 weeks due to my style totally throwing off both opponents. It was FUN!

It proved to be a rather nasty surprise to my opponent!

John,

While sending you a PM I've got an info that the message is undelieverable because your box is full...
Maybe that's a reason why you can't hear from other players?
Did you get my message?

------------------------------
Hi John,

Are you still looking for an opponent for you RA game?

I am interested of playing a Japanese side. I've got a long played PBEM going against Ross (Crsutton) starting from '41 we are in 9.44 now, playing it almost 3 years now ;) 3 years ago I had another opponent from the forum (ctangus, Chuck Angus) and we too had had a 3 years long PBEM, before I kicked the Ally a** in 7.44... ;)
So I am definetely not a quitter... but before I engage fully, I'd like to hear your rules/needs and some info what should I expect from RA etc. :)

As my current game seems to be closing towards the bitter end ;), I am looking for a really slow paced game and something more of a challenge with more options for Japan...
Right now I am fully engaged with my esteemed opponent so I can't promise something more that 1 - 3 turns a week.
But we can speed up a little, when my current PBEM will be ended.

Looking for your comments.

Best,
Arkadiusz Romanek

I think you have a game Sir.

Would want to run an AAR? Have you downloaded RA?

Good luck John.

I was sorely tempted for the opportunity to play an such an esteemed player, but I'm already in a full blown campaign against my brother, and I think two PBEM games on my part only would lead to madness, and end up me not enjoying either because of the pressure!!


Look forward to reading the AAR,

Regards
Chris
