It's a hobby :] Japanese Player Wanted (closed)

Post by Mike McCreery »

The game I am playing with MrKane has slowed down considerably giving me lots of time staring longingly at the computer screen.

Looking for Japanese player for long term game. I am looking for someone who likes to play consistently at least 1 turn per day. I can put out 1-3 turns per day on most days.

As far as scenario/rules I am pretty open. I do want 1 day turns but everything else is negotiable.

You're too good for me to play you as IJ, I'd only take you on as the allies. Not that I can hope to start a PBEM game for another 10 years ... [:D][:D][:D]

So, maybe a rain check on the game?

I would say you were one of the top 10 players in economy management and R&D. Playing the Japanese is like playing 3 dimensional chess while the allies have to just play in 1 dimension.

That would make it fun to play against you.

If I am still playing a decade from now (and it isnt impossible) you have the first spot :]

Yes, if it ever happens, an AAR would be in order.

If I'm still around ... the 8yo is really ageing me fast ... he's got 15yo attitude issues already. I had really hoped for a few more years of peace until my senility had firmly set in. No luck there. [:D]

I have a 4 years old who listens to rap and heavy metal. If something goes not his way he leaves the room and slams the door shut.
Last week he came home (from Kidnergarden) and talked about a new girl named Anika and how pretty she is [X(]
I expected at least 10 more years untill this happens [:(]


In short I can imagine your pain.

It appears I have a tenative game lined up. More info to follow.

Pax has said at least once that all you need as the Allies is to make it to 1943. I think I am the poster child for this motto :}

My more complete plan is to invade every town in America with an aircraft factory or a shipyard and paint signs that say "Nya Nya we Japanese are here and you can't do anything about it! Your bombs couldn't hit us if you tried!"

While all of my men hide in their factories.

The level of players I have come up against has not been great all 6 have not lasted the distance...only 1 got to 43 for one reason or other fell on their sword and were not even playing Japan.(never see late war game only in AAR)
is why I said tempting just started a new game first time in a while not looking good again for them I should choose more wisely.

Yeah, my 3 Allied opponents whose names were not Joe Wilkerson or Don Bowen all quit on or before '43. I was always stunned by Allied players quitting because I sank his '41-'42 carriers. Seriously? It's not like you don't get more.
