I have played three games to completion, two allied one japanese. The shortest game took 17 months with 3 or more turns per day and more on weekends. the longest was 2 yrs 4 months. I usually play 4 or 5 games at a time, and try to do 12-21 turns per week. But, I always have a few opponents who are one turn or less daily. I like the continuity of several turns back and forth. Its as close as I can get to playing the AI without suffering the bad play. One of my games went into 46, the others ended in December 44 and January 45.

I am into Jun 43 w/iley and a very competative game, I am the allies and after a major flub in the beginning he has about all of china and all the way to karachi, I didn't pay attention up there until it was too late and he did an end around on me, however the price for him is that I have advanced through all the island chains including the marianas, I put out a diversionary force to Kendari to draw his carriers away from Ulithi and now I am gonna strike him down! we are at the 18 month mark about a turn a day since I think we both have lives. But I see this going all the way to the end, a very smart jap player this one is

I'm envious. That would be my ideal. Maybe when I retire!

I've played up to late 1942 early 1943 at least twice, perhaps three times as Allies against Japan AI. First time on easy, and I quit when it felt like Japan was just sitting there.

Second time one notch up in difficulty same effect. Last time I played the longest, on Hard difficulty and most of the factors set to favor Japan. Still Japan did not manage to take Manila and I had a gigantic stack in Batavia wearing down their attackers.

I'm giving it one more try on Very Hard, and doing everything I can to give the AI a fighting chance, see if I can get up to 1943-44 weapons before I smash the poor feckless AI.

Also played a couple different games of WPO up to early 1943 . . .

One PBEM game to 1/25/43 and it is moving quite fast. We started 12/11/2008, thats 414 turns in 140 days for just under 3 turns per day and I have been on vacation for two weeks so no turns for 15 days now, which puts it at 3.3 turns per day average.
