Squirmer, I like the large map too. You can set up if you want to, if not, I'll do it. Just let me know what other rules you want to play by.

Actually, I am looking forward to solving my hardware problems before the weekend. Experience tells me that I cannont guarantee anything, though. Should I have forfeited my position, so be it...

Good Luck to everyone!

Scharfschütze, if you are in contact with your opponent about the problem and it looks like you are, there is no problem. We all have h/w problems once in a while. Hope you get it fixed.

LEts do it like this: If I get going before this weekend, I would really like to nail those remaining cossacks and KVs, if my streak of bad luck with used motherboards continues, I will surrender to the commies. Hope this is agreeable!

I have surrendered my game against Dodger. I have had my fill of Finns in the winter with T-34 and hords of heavy AA.

I for one, am all for the rules addendum of limiting these assets to a platoon!

Please line me up with my round 2 opponent. Thanks!

I'll contact you today Overlord.

Correction to CPTs post: I only had 2 75mm guns capable of move/fire.

Rest was 20mm or 40mm unable to move and fire during same turn.

Good game anyways.

I am hoping to get round 1 with Kanonenfutter underway soon. It will have been past 3 days since I have heard from him after about 9:30 A.M. UTC (Universal Coordinated Time) on 3/12. Has anyone heard from him?

Red,

I just saw your player list and it did not include me? I have already played my first round, against Ironfist. I registered to be GE/US. I am waiting for game files from Shiner and expect to start round two shortly as the US (haven't had a go as GE yet).

Next useless suggestion from the UK - if time is pressing to complete round 1 by 21st march, can we not play rounds 1-3 simultaneously inishing byu end may (ie when round 3 was due to end) this way things like time zones have less of an impact - after all you are only looking for players who have 2 out of 3 points - also reduces the "Man United weakened team" scenario where someone alreadyy through can be "persuaded" to advance their opponents quest for that elusive 2nd point - playing the games simultaneously will mean all have no idea of how the firs t 3 sets of games will end.

This is really a desperate plea as due mainly to time zones & no weekend play for myself I will be luckh to finish any of my 3 games in the alloted time!

Rob some of us are already playing concurrent round 2 games. As long as it's OK with red and everyone informs him of the results I don't see a problem with playing rounds 1-3 simultaneously.

I have my round 2 game but how about me and you start round 3? Seeing as we are both in the UK ...

This would be SO vs SO in 1943.

Bright idea that was - play rounds 2 and 3 simultaneously.

Well... if anyone wants to hook up, up still available for both 2nd and 3rd game. :)

Again: I'll play Germany (as Sandman got to pick sides for round 1). '42 for round 2 and '43 for round 3.

Kanonenfutter and I have started round 1. Has anyone ever had a problem with the VCR playback feature locking up their computer? I have played dozens of PBeM games, and never had this problem before. Any ideas?

Why is it that I can play numerous opponents out there and never win a game (VikingNo2, I feel my luck might change this time), yet still enjoy the experience and ask to keep playing time and time again?

Yet, when the WC comes around (My first WC Experince) I feel that I am being gamed, and get such a sour taste from the ordeal that if it was regular play I would not be inclined to ever play that person again.

Are you supposed to not play for fun during the WC?

Wasn't two balanced forces going Head to Head the goal of the competition?

I have selected my forces with a mechanized mix of 4 platoons of Mobile Infantry or Engineers, and 4 platoons of Tanks (That gives me three manuever elements for 3 objectives, with one left over to exploit success, or reinforce failures). I get my standard 10% of Arty, and 4 aircraft. I get about a companies worth of recon and mix in a platoon of straight heavy infantry for my rear hexes. I might have enough points for some AAA and the platoon or two of AT guns, and a platoon of infiltrators if available.

Am I wrong for not trying to find the little quirks of what are the best killers for my nationality, like hords of bazooka's, or mobile move and fire heavy AA, or nothing but machine guns and the heaviest AT, and use them to my best advantage? Am I supposed to work the time frame, visibility, map characteristics and tweak deployment lines so that things come out in my favor?

Maybe my opponents did not do anything like this, and I am just the unluckiest, and worst player of this game, and coincidences have worked together with the aligments of the planets to work out against me. But I have enjoyed many a defeat that has not left me disgruntled.

Thanks for the vent, and pass the cheese and crackers to go with my...

I am yet to be setup with a round three opponent. So if you are looking for a round three skirmish I am ready to go. However, I hope to play my first choice this time (ie the Germans) as I have been the US in both round 1 and 2.

I want to play with my KATZ! :)
