Re: Kull's Set up.... General question

There's a lot to remember! Taking notes definitely seems important.

Ahh, that makes sense! Thank you.

The Kull spreadsheet is from Turn 2. It presupposes you already ran Turn 1 and got historical results.

Re: All things Football (soccer) related


The World Cup is upon us.

I've tried to feel some enthusiasm about it, but so far I have failed. That so many matches will be played in the middle of the night will not help.

A specific question on Kull's spreadsheet...

Hey, guys, if I'm supposed to put a question underneath where Kull's spreadsheet is posted about, I'll start doing that. I don't want to mess up any protocol.

Allied setup.
Lines 1172-1177
Create a TF in Hong Kong.

There's a part that says "absolute". Can anyone tell me what that means? I have ...

Re: Kull's Set up.... General question

Thank you.

This post seems weirdly like a second post. Mayube I have something going wonky in my settings. I think I did click post twice because I had the spinning thinking icon on the screen.

Cheers!

Whoa, I'm not ready for Japan! I'm speaking about the Allies and yes, it seems like it will take a very long time to get through this first turn!

Kull's Set up.... General question

So, after owning this game for 17 years I have finally started playing. I am pretty sure I have said this before, but I'm really doing it now. :lol: :lol:

Re: How old are the average Wargamers here?

I'm 60. I started like many with chess. In the middle 70s or so, we were part of a book club and we got this book by John Toland The Rising Sun . I read it and I was about 13 years old. Two volumes. Then I read Winds of War and War and Remembrance by Herman Wouk.

I then bought the game "Flattop ...

Re: Windows 11 - Does anyone know....

I can always play it on Win 10, though, so all is not lost. It seems like it didn't install correctly. Do you think if I copied the installed game from my Win 10 computer that I could paste it in Win 11 file folder and play it?

No. I get this message, though, in French. I translated it into English with Google translate:

Well, has anyone been able to run it on Windows 11? Am I missing something like Net 4.5 or some other type file that if I had it, I could install and play?

I found a setting in Windows 10. Hopefully, others will try it out.

Kingdom Come Deliverance II was revealed today...

The first game was one of my most favorite games of all time, non-wargame. I am pretty excited for this one. I know a lot of people didn't like the combat or were turned off by some of the bugs, but I really enjoyed the first game.

The 2nd game is supposed to be out before the end of the year. I'm ...
