Are You A Japanese Hero Looking For A War?

Post by tocaff »

I find myself with time on my hands and would like to start a GC as the Allied player. I prefer WITP vanilla. HRs are open to discussion. I won't be doing an AAR this time around. If you're interested and willing to go the distance regardless of setbacks PM me.

He started a GC and he really prefers to play the Allied side. We've battled many times since our UV days and now we're Allies in a multi player WPO game.

OK, so I suppose you guys are going to force me to abandon WITP and make the leap to AE?

I've intensified my play of AE short scenarios by PBEM with AW1Steve as I'm sadly being pushed by you cowards [;)] into a future of AE.

Did you ever find your opponent? Would love to give it a try but two games are keeping me busy.
