PBEM World Cup

okay, 4K pts sounds good, as far as countries and time periods go, I think we can accomadate everybody by letting the players decide on those. So for example if Mogami plays against Goblin, it may be Holland vs Germany 1940. If I play against Goblin it may be 1942 etc.

K.I.S.S. rules!

Ok I will take Germans......can I have a company of Porshe Maus's ....:p

I go for Goblins freewheeling approach. Limit points to 4K. Random selection of players intitially by Country. Then let players decide what time period is optimum for potential success for either.

That point system looked doable and simple I say go for it. Anything that will get the show on the road and simplify the process.

count me in

My two cents 1st a uninterested party draws countrys for the first round, and the first round is force on force any year, 2nd round42-43, last round 44-49

Since our soccer boys didn´t cut it in the finals, at least one other cup should go to Germany!:)

Count me in, and count on me to invade all around... Brazil anyone?:D

Goblin (US)
Gary Tatro (US)
Fallschirmjager (nation?)
TimeTanker (nation?)
Brutto-Bob (nation?)
Mogami (Holland?)
BORO (nation?)

Didn't FJ say he was sitting this out? Also, for second match we can change nations, can't we? (yep, I plan on being in round two, you losers;) :p )

Goblin- A Goblin says La-hoo-za-her

Ok, I will take germans.

Revised List:

red (SU)
Goblin (US)
Gary Tatro (US)
Fallschirmjager (nation?)
TimeTanker (Germany)
Brutto-Bob (Germany)
Mogami (Holland?)
BORO (nation?)
Scharfschütze (Germany)

It looked as though Viking2 expressed an interest in playing in this. But, did not express a desired Country.

Vike are you out there?

Fallschirmjager · Post by **Fallschirmjager** » Thu Jul 04, 2002 1:09 am

**** I was going to be Germany....who is left......Ill be the English
can I pick units from the entire commonwealth?:D

Goblin · Post by **Goblin** » Thu Jul 04, 2002 1:15 am

Pick Germany, FJ, there are enough allied players.

TimeTanker · Post by **TimeTanker** » Thu Jul 04, 2002 1:20 am

Hey FJ,

I will trade you if you really want to be Germans first round?

I would imagine that if you chose English you could choose from Canada, Aussies, Kiwi's, or even India if you wanted? Gotta dig those Ghurka's.

So new revised list would look like this:

red (SU)
Goblin (US)
Gary Tatro (US)
Fallschirmjager (Germany)
TimeTanker (UK)
Brutto-Bob (Germany)
Mogami (Holland?)
BORO (nation?)
Scharfschütze (Germany)
Viking2 (nation?)

That just leaves Viking2 and BORO out there tweedling their thumbs in a fog of indecision.... :p

If I get you in the first round FJ you gotta be nice....:rolleyes:

What you can choose will be up to the opponent you play. If he says you can by his countries equipment too, go for it!

Goblin · Post by **Goblin** » Thu Jul 04, 2002 1:30 am

Also, I see alot of names missing that I would have expected here. We should wait and see if they will join this. Even if we have to have 14 players. No?

Fallschirmjager · Post by **Fallschirmjager** » Thu Jul 04, 2002 1:35 am

I was trying to get away from having so many of the same nation for the toruny so.......in the spirit of originality ill be Finland.

3 reasons for such:

1. They are good (Poland and France suck as nations no one uses)
2.They are hardly ever used
3. Ill have the backing of some of the more hardcore members of this forum (if thats a good thing:D )

TimeTanker · Post by **TimeTanker** » Thu Jul 04, 2002 1:40 am

AnyWho, here's the new list.

Gary Tatro (US)
Fallschirmjager (Finland)
TimeTanker (UK)
Brutto-Bob (Germany)
Mogami (Holland?)
BORO (nation?)
Scharfschütze (Germany)

With all the above not withstanding (does anyone really know what that means?) I will be going to the coast on the 5th with my family and returning on the 13th or 14th.

And, as I don't have a laptop with a wireless modem I will have to take a break after about noon on Friday.

I still have a couple of turns in me for the "Frozen Tundra" and for you Gary. But, just wanted to let everyone know so that I still get to be an Englander when I get back.

Some of you others that haven't chosen a country. Feel free to cut and paste the nation of your choice into the list.
