Same here!

I am another long time lurker who is waiting patiently and scraping up $$$ for the day when this game and WITPAE are available for purchase. Thanks to all for their continued hard work.

<t> Longest I have let it run was ~20 minutes b4 ctrl-alt-del. I had to restart 7 times, each time looping on a different day, before the trading deadline hit and then everything went back to normal.<br/>
<br/>
I made a copy of my PSA file after the second 'loop', if anyone is interested.<br ...

<t> I have recently been having some endless loop problems. Currently at the bottom right of my game a box is popping up "York thinking..." and then it flashes quickly to "York evaluating GM/Managerial tendencies...", and then back to "York thinking..." and so on. If I manually ask windows to shut ...

I get this same error quite often while running the free agent draft.&nbsp; I am also running 1.70c. &nbsp;

<t> I have not played UV in years, since I got WITP. I recently loaded UV back up on both my machines and updated to 2.5.<br/>
<br/>
Has UV always run this slow? WITP flys on my C2D at home, and moves pretty well on my old 3.2c p4 at work. UV on the other hand just crawls. Every click of a button ...

If you have not found a game, I could be convinced to give you one...

<t> Most people probably are not all that thrilled about a WWI strategic game.<br/>
<br/>
I for one, have been infinitely fascinated with WWI ever since I bought and played the Avalon Hill game "The Guns of August" ~25 years ago. Had to play solo as nobody else was interested in the conflict, and ...

<t> Not sure what he means. There is not really anywhere else to post if you are looking for a pacwar email opponent.<br/>
<br/>
Your first pacwar email game will most likely be quite a shock. <br/>
<br/>
Been a while since I have been active but I just started an email game and have found that ...

<t>I noticed something like this after the first Matrix improvements to the game. <br/>
<br/>
I kept re-running a new historical start and noticed that each time I ran the turn that the number of ships sunk at Pearl Harbor would drop with each rerunning. Eventually the pearl harbor attack would ...

<t>This has gone on for some time. The Allied player has to take the VCR combat results with some skepticism. <br/>
<br/>
Not sure what the problem is with them, but it seems like the VCR is really running a new combat phase to show you results, not just a replay. And if the random number file (is ...

I think the battleships need more damage in the Tora Tora Tora scenario.

Currently the U.S. player can have them all back in action in the early summer of 1942.

I have to thank all that have contributed to all the pacwar versions Matrix has released.

You have all helped to fill countless hours of mine with some of the most fun gaming I have ever had.

Thanks again...

<t>I don't think the british air groups are too strong. <br/>
<br/>
I think that the japanese are stretched to thin to oppose the british. There are just not enough jap air groups to go around. Also, no japanese aircraft in 3.1 can not stand up for very long against f4fs, huricanes, or the p40s of ...

<t>Outlast his historical opponent?<br/>
<br/>
This was possible in Version 2.3. In version 3.1 I don't think it is possible against a competent Allied Player. Changes were needed, as it was too easy as the japanese player to just roll through china, burma, and india. However, the changes made have ...

<t>I have the few DE's and other escorts all at Nagoya. Also have about 8 DD. Moving about 40 more DDs there now to see if they help stem the tide, but it is really too late in this game. Lost another 30 merchants last turn. <br/>
<br/>
I have noticed in my other 3.1 game against nomad that my subs ...

<t>I am playing as the japanese in a 3.0 PBEM game. It is August of 1943 and I have lost 625 AKAs and only have ~500 left. 99% of my merchant losses have been to submarines. In one bad week in january 42, I lost 44 AKAs and 7 tankers. The only way I have been able to slow the loss rate to less than ...

I noticed this too. In a PBEM 3.0 game I am playing now it took till February for all of the ships from the Pearl Harbor strike to show up. Carriers first, and then the escorts, with the battlecruisers showing up last.

I'll play. email with particulars at wf123larry@aol.com
