I think 4 is better, there were two more looking for a game, (Bombur and Ironduke55). Maybe PM them ?

We can give 2 a shot otherwise. It will move faster.

Remember to send me a PM if you find any bugs, or things that you need info about, that seem to be undocumented... If I can´t answer them, I am sure bombur can.

As it will run as 2vs2 you have a partner to ask whenever there are any questions. And dont think that players that have already played this sceanrio always know what is best to do

So who is participating? In case we are more players than sides we might start another game/ another scenario too.

ANTONIOr: any side you prefer? As you started this thread you should be the first to choose.

If you need a additional player let me know I am playing GD1938 at the moment. But could handle a second game. Do I need to upgrade to 2.00L and will that impact my current game.

As you have asked for participating in a new game earlier than me, it is up to you to join here and I will step back in case there is no slot left. Maybe we will find enough players for another game or anyone interested in a game of WaW or ETO.

The is room up to 8 players, no one needs to give up. If we play with 5 players, I suggest one of them will take Japan, one takes Italy+Germany, one USSR, one Japan+China. I will send you the last version (with Fw190A bug fixed)

Please no one pull out it would interesting to see how the game is played with more players. The Diplomatic aspect would a lot more challenging. The only problem would be the turn rate, but I guess with less to do in the game that might speed up.

In case you play kamikaze style please look for other allies than me

Irondule had already told he wants to join in subforum War Room, somewhen end of October. Anyway, having more than four players will make it more interesting, I agree with you in that. Otherwise it is a 2vs2, but five or more players means we will see more diplomatic negotiations and hopefully more changes in sides/coalitions.

As Bombur listed only four sides and did not mention France and Britain, I think this will be the fifth side, right? Looks like a good mix and as we are just five players we might choose sides now if it is ok for all.

Antonio, would you like to start posting your preferences?

seriously no preference ,since I m the less experienced player here ,and need to be driven a little from a very very patient ally

btw I m studying in the forum ,and the improvments and the discussions about this or that use of units haha

Asuming we will have a 5-player-game and are complete now someone has to start to list preferences.

Here they are (highest preference first):
France/ Britain
USA
Germany/ Italy
SU

But this would be a real challenge! Ok, so what about Denmark? We might give you Belgium and Netherlands too to make it easier. So you have Germany trapped inbetween your nations. Isnt that a fair chance?

Cannt tell what nation is best to play when you are new in this scenario.

USA is out of any conflict for a long time and can concentrate on diplomatics and upgrading tech levels. Might be a choice as you can look to build up your forces first and later start sending them anywhere and prepare for war.

Sovjets might have an easy start as long as they get an agreement with Axis about the Balkan and the Baltic states. This would enable both sides to take the small nations by diplomacy or war that is not really challenging but enables the player to get his units experienced.

Britain is involved in war with Axis quite early. Although England and Scotland might be save as having lots of forces for defence, the colonies are in danger of being overrun. And France is hard to hold against the combined attacks of Germany and Italy.

Axis is not easy to play, of course due to its position in the middle of Europe with enemies at all sides. It has to be aggressive and take as much as possible to get stronger and be able to survive, especially later as USA gets involved.

Japan is small, has to fight China, which might be not that difficult, but has to fear the powerful USA. Maybe Japan is most challenging.

This is only my view. Maybe there are different opinions here, so dont listen only to what I say

But things might be totally different in case we see some interesting coalitions. Imagine Axis and Western Allies being at peace and Axis can concentrate its full power against Sovjets. Not a comfortable situation for the player of SU. Japan and USA being allied and at war with Western Allies would make it unable for Britain to defend its colonies and get British forces supplied by the Asian supply centers. China and SU being allied might drive Japan out from the continent and leave it being reduced to a small island that is vulnerable at any place against air and naval attacks, and having few space to build any factories.

thank s for the analysis ,so no country ,obviously ,is far from danger and challenge ,,,very good I would add ..

well let s listen at jeffrey s and bombur s preferences

I ll take the country left free

the usa player will move as soon as usa wake up ,but since the first turn as china

SU could forgive less mistakes than usa ,even if there is china that must resist to japan

germany italy lesser mistakes ,for they need to start aggressively due to a lack of resources compared to the others ,possible and for sure ,,enemies

japan has to face continental and oceanic ,literally ,problems

france britain all around the world ,with france that has to hold on as much as possible to limit its side damages and germany advantages



conclusion : checking the forum to find hints and tips
