RE: Perfecting Turn 1

Post by Lifer »

Undercovergeek - I understand and I know that the JFBs massage the turn and make sure that everything is set.  I am not complaining about the tactic.  More tongue in cheek to keep this thread at the top of Page 1 (see posts 3,4, 5, 6 and 7).  I figured a bump was not as powerful as trying to stimulate a discussion of Turn 1 redos at your expense ;)

@Dobey - Most HRs try to simulate a What If or address some game issue.  Surprise East of the Dateline/No Surprise to the West.  No 4E Naval Attacks below 10k.  If you want a Historical Dec. 7th, play the Dec. 8th beginning.  If you want some variance, use HRs on Dec. 7.  I don't think anyone attempts to use HRs to disadvantage one side to give the other a chance.  I do not have a GC going at the moment.  If I did, I would try to trade good settings for me for good settings for you.  If you want PDU on, I want Surprise off.  You want historical first turn, I want PDUs off.  That sort of thing.  Having said that, I prefer the scenarios.  I'm having a blast with Guadalcanal.  Limited scope, few units, (very) limited logistics.  I lose some (d0mbo made me weep most recently) and win some.

And with this post, it bumps back to the top (Sorry Undercovergeek)

Do we need to recap what we know we know about the thread.  Or should we let the thread peter out and start the slide down the page?

Ah I disagree. Disregard has proven its effectiveness over nearly a decade.
No way a simple delete can compete to that; no matter how much emphasis has been put behind it... [:D]

If people would quit posting, this would not be getting back to the top.  [;)]

How is that relevant to the risk of this thread falling off the first page? Elaborate?

Speaking of milk, a restaurant in New York is making cheese from his wife's breast milk.  The owner/chef beat out one of the iron chefs on TV.  I guess with that win he can do pretty what he wants however disgusting.

On another irrelevant note, it amazes me how these threads take on a life of their own.

I'm picturing dead silence followed by some sort of incoherent reply. Great kodak moment.
