RE: looking for another game
If you have a spot any flavour count me in
Are we like late Rome, infatuated with past glories, ruled by a complacent, greedy elite, and hopelessly powerless to respond to changing conditions?
RE: looking for another game
ok how many people want to play a bombur mod game we will set the year to 1940 and will leave out Italy, Japan and France.

RE: looking for another game
I am sure that was just a oversight, so we have 4 players Twotribes Armoured Lion Hatemf90 and Ironduke that should be enough for a game.

RE: looking for another game
If I can suggest a 2V2, suggestions on sides would be welcome.

RE: looking for another game
Wait, I said I'd play - if it wasn't a huge map??
RE: looking for another game
ok 5 so I will add France and since it is on banned list I will play it. They get tanks that are better in 42 I think.

RE: looking for another game
should I do 6 nations and we have 2 teams of 3 nations letting one person play two nations?

RE: looking for another game
Is there a place to me in a Bombur mod game? I´ve just surrendered in my game vs. ironduke and TwoTribes, it would be nice to start another.
Armoured Lion, could you tell me more on technical and balance issues? I corrected that coal bug, now all ships use oil, but I would be happy to know about your suggestions to improve the mod.

Context is the key Hatem:
Timeline:
HO: other thread "Im also not sure what game is it? also armoredlion, id rather pick anything BUT russia so its all yours, i will go for axis minors/italy or if that doesnt exist il go with britain."
HO:"sign me up if you need an extra player"
AL: other thread "What about two tribes? He was setting up a Boombur mod... Two tribes is this your game or another one... sorry, I'm getting lost."
AL: "Two Tribes has this show... I'm just the guy caught up in confusion. I owe Two Tribes help in whtever game he is running... so let me know the scene before I have to many games on my menu."
TT: "feel free to start the other game no way i can make a bombur game with only the specific countries when i do not even know how many will play."
HO: other thread "how would he take japan and china? 2 opposite/hostile countries..? also I only picked china to fill vacancies and help the game start, i mainly wanted to play an axis country, but since my choice got randomly ignored il drop out of this one. "
AL: other thread "Yeah, no slight to anyone, but Two Tribes seems to be being dismissed, and I owe him a game. So, with one game in my holster left, I'll remove myself as well Falco, as I committed to Two Tribes originally."
AL: "Hey Two Tribes see other thread. This was my post: "Hey, somehow Two Tribes and his game got lost/ mix up in the shuffle. Can Two Tribes take Italy? Or I'll take Italy and he can take USSR?" If you want in on the game, you have two choices of nations."
AL: "I originally committed to you Two Tribes and since I owe you... I'm in for a random game. Can you have say two German nations in a random? OR is USSR, Germany, US, and Brits forcing a 4 player max? Would Japan work? OR is their lack of tanks too much of an issue?"

I get you were frustrated with the last thread and game setup. But that had zip to do with me. Your last statement wasn't correct, warranted, or necessary. This random game was all but abandoned and everyone was (but TT) was in the 38 game. We were resetting for commitment after we left that 38 game. That's it. I do my best to be a nice guy, cordial, and considerate. My nature is quite the opposite when under attack. I talk straight, expect straight talk in return, and don't do well when I get pot shots for no reason. Stick to this and we'll be peachy... and I'll be a good ally.

RE: looking for another game
Twotribes what year will be the starting year just as a matter of interest ?

RE: looking for another game
He said 1940. So far it's you, Two Tribes, Hatem, Bombur, Lao, and me. We could go teams and the better nations could lend / lease to weaker nations to compensate? Maybe we can figure out fair combos? Bombur, Iron Duke is better than me in catching issues (he mentioned certain navy planes were getting jacked by subs). As for me, I thought balance for all nations was an issue (Russian tank advantage was brutal early on) and the coal issue... and maybe consideration of fuel expenditures and raw expenditures on bombardments were the only things I noticed. If we do teams, and if Hatem is interested, I'd like to team with him.

RE: looking for another game
I keep getting Italy as one of the countries instead of Japan right now I have USA Germany Britain Russia France and Italy. on xtra large map that gives us 20 cities. the next lower drops it to 10 cities and I don't see that as viable.

Do you want to use the (yet not published) v135? It eases the oil shortages and make more difficult to build a sea of fortifications. It also adds 4 new SFT´s: LCI, Gunboat, B-29(Night) and He-11E(Night)

RE: looking for another game
Yes thanks Bombur thanks that will help with oil shortage a major problem for the last game, and I hope the Patrol Planes have been tweaked fingers crossed. Just my opinion but a reasonably sized map would be more fun than a small map small maps can be fairly unforgiving.
