Are You A Japanese Hero Looking For A War?

[ColCathcart]

Hi,
if it is not a secret can you say what turned out to be unpassable obstacle in negotiations with Zecke (HRs, other issue)?
Also what is your expected pace of a game (how many turns a week)?

[tocaff]

Without interruptions from RL a turn a day would be great.

I'd rather not make what happened public. If you want you can PM me.

I'd be willing to try a game but couldn't manage a turn per day - would you consider a turn per week ?

I'd be happy to increase the turn cycle to compensate

A turn per week?!?!? No disrespect, but that would be a game that would never get done. Even if you went to 2 day turns you'd still need 3 turns per week to just cover 6 days. It would take almost 5 years to complete a game. 1 turn per week and you're talking over 10 years and between turns you'd forget what you were doing. Sorry, but that just wouldn't work.

[Sendai]

Fair enough although a turn per day with each turn being 1 day still equates to a game length of almost 4 years.

[tocaff]

That is considered a good time frame. My game v Steve has gone on for over 4 years now so it is most important to find a good opponent who will stay the course.

Ok - good luck with your game then.

Just out of interest - how much time each day do you need for each turn ?

[tocaff]

It depends on the amount of activity at that point in time and also how many units you have at your disposal. For instance early war for the Allies, after the the first couple of weeks, tends to go quickly. Later in the war when you're on the offensive and have many active units turns will take longer. I've had 10 minute turns and others have taken hours.

Forget the WITP as I'll be migrating to AE for a game when my war with Steve ends.
