Well, rats. I need a Japanese opponent with some skill. But you keep working on BTR.

[:-] Yes, I know I don't have any skills... but I enjoyed our game immensly last year.

Im coming up on the end of my season (2 games) left. Interested?

I tell you what. How about after BtR/BoB is released AND a game finishes we play a game?

[2ndACR]

We can do that. Of course, I may try a BTR campaign. Because i will be getting that one.
 
 

[Speedysteve]

BTR is looking GREAT[:)]

[2ndACR]

Well, it better with all the old hands from JC's site running the thing.

[Speedysteve]

Aye it's good to have everyone on board[:)]
 
You still playing BtR/BoB now?

[2ndACR]

I have BTR loaded up, but have not relly messed with it since my return from Iraq other than some German vs AI to keep in the groove for the new release.
 
Work, wife and kids do not leave alot of time. 3-4 PBEM is all I can handle at 1 turn per day on average.

I know. I know dumbass.

I don't break promises. I'm looking forward to our first game.

This must be the longest ever advance booking for a game that is nowhere near being released yet[:D]

[pauk]

yes Englander, i hope we can start in 2015, if not earlier[:(]

Yeah like me. I got to know about Matrix somewhere around 2001-2002 looking for the computerized EiA.

Afraid not at this time my friend.

What with BoB/BtR testing ramping up I have even less time to dedicate on my 5 existing PBEM's.........

OK, I'll bite, what is BoB/BtR?
I was afraid to ask because I figure the answer will cost me money.

[2ndACR]

BOB is the battle of Britian day for day.............very detailed.
 
BTR is the air war over Europe in WW2 fought from 1943 to 1945 day by day. It is great.

[AU Tiger_MatrixForum]

I was right.

[pauk]

Speedy, i've played BoB... but not BTR... are two remakes are separate games?

Just lurked in Eagle day forum - it seems prety same as first version...i hope there are quite a lot improvements/changes?

[Speedysteve]

Hi Pauk,

Just so i'm clear. You're asking if the Matrix versions are to be separate games? Yes and no. They are separate games in the sense BoB covers the 1940 and 1941 Hypothetical Campaign against Great Britain. BtR covers the bombing of the Third Reich by the Allies in various scenarios/campaigns ranging from 1943 to 1945.

They are very detailed games with quite a bit of the WiTP engine beginning it's life in BoB/BtR [:)]

The no part to my answer is that they will be sold as 1 package. So you will have two games in one[8D]

There are a LOT of improvements/changes/bug squashes. We're entering a more invigorated Beta phase now and what with NDA I don't think I can disclose a lot of stuff.

I will say this though - expect a better interface, more plane types, more realistic plane attributes, a more complete database of targets, better recon model, better functionality of planes etc. Wish I could say more but I think you will be impressed with the end result.

Stay tuned[:)]

[pauk]

aahhhh....i may try this game against you while we are waiting for WiE[:)]

beware of mighty german fighers - B-109s and Focke aren't paper made ac as Japanese fighers are[;)]

[Speedysteve]

Oooooh scary.
 
I'd easily kick your arse on it[:'(]
