Ok have changed order to MeanLazyHateIron

I have restarted the game with the settings listed in my first post.

I am the brownish one in the middle.
Lazy is in the upper right.
Your team's Supremo(he always goes first) is the greenish one.
Your team's Sub Commander is the pinkish one.
Map loop is on.
I will complete my turn today sometime and put it in the dropbox for Lazy.
Decide who your Supreme Commander will be and leave word so that Lazyboy knows who to name it for.

Hey guys,
On closer examination, I concluded that the map was very unfair to whoever would be stuck as your Supremo.
I will regenerate until I come up with something better. I really wish for the map to be as even as possible so our decision may be reached by skill and not by initial positioning on the map.
I will start one asap and put a screenshot in folder. If any one has an objection to what I put in let me know.

I have made a new map and will complete my turn today sometime and send off to Lazy.
I would like to start a new standard procedure for team games.
As one side starts to win and the game becomes less fun for the other, the game tends to slow down.
If you are going on vacation let us know ahead of time and this wont count for the following.
If a player does not take his turn within 7 days of it being available to him, his partner has 3 days to complete the turn or it is considered a surrender.
Does this sound fair to everyone?
This obviously means that we should make our passwords known to our team mates.
Let me know what you think

Sounds fine to me just completed a series of 1V1 games completed 3 to 4 turns a day. If you sign up for these games it is not unreasonable for you to have forfeited the game if you refuse to complete a turn within a reasonable time frame. But I feel some people beleive if they simply refuse to complete their turn somehow it means they were never defeated !!! mind boggling. If you refuse to complete a turn you were not only whooped but you have shown that you are to childish to admit that you were whooped a double whammy. Sounds like a rant but I have been a victim of the absentee ATG recently.

Fairly sure that this map will not work as you must be aware Hatem is new to the game and will struggle with this map as will I :).

The idea here is to engage in operational warfare. If it is a complete washout when we rematch, we can mix up the teams so that everyone gets to see how it works. This is Lazyboy's first time as a Sub Commander and he will need to see how it works from the inside. This way he can take Supremo for his turn in the second game.

I must apologize I will have to drop out of this game I have way to much on my plate at the moment. I would not be able to give this game the attention it deserves. And I beleive as Mean says you should not enter into these games unless you can give them 100%

Well that is too bad.
We will regen and start all over as soon as we have a fourth.
This will be Strategic and Operational level warfarel
It will be and xx large map with no PBEM protection so that the very long turns may be done in more than one sitting.
Any takers?

Will we start a new map? I prefer we carry on with this one as I have just about completed my first turn.

Cool, welcome Kombrig. We had already started a our first turns, and unfortunately one of our opponents dropped out.
Kombrig, could you please email me? pas.x@hotmail.com Once I have your email I can invite you to the game dropbox.
You should email your teammate, Hatemf90 so that you guys can properly coordinate your actions.
Lazyboy, I know it is a lot of work but it is really proper that I regerate and that we are starting fresh.
I have to go out today but I will regen and post new map in dropbox and then try to complete my turn tonight.

I suggest that you wait until you communicate with your ally. Whichever of you is the most experienced map reader and strategist should assume Supreme Command and should go first. Your Supreme Commander should be bold and creative when developing Strategic and Operational concepts.
Our team wont waste even one unit of Oil on movements that are not directly involved in securing Operational Objectives.
