Hi all.

I was up late last night playing a campaign and would love to join in the noobie game if any nations are left.

I am in the Pacific time zone, USA and can do a turn every night or morning before work.
Let me know...

bimbo_15_63@yahoo.com

Thanks,
James.

Hi all,

I would say we try to get 8 players and restart the game. Paul, if you are still interested you can take Austria and I play Sweden instead.

Oh, how little you know. I happen to have experience with Gary Grigbys World at war and the opponents wanted section and trying to coordinate games of many people around the world.[:)]

samthesham: So we have one more, Spain or Sweden? Email address needed as well.
bimbo1555: Ok, which will it be, first one to respond get there choice.

munited18: I have been playing on normal and getting my butt kicked so unless you are doing great against normal I would say we leave it for this go around.

Have we confirmed the MAC85 is taking France?

Sorry...I would post your desire to play here as well as e-mailing him directly (click on his name to get his e-mail address).

He seems to be the one among us who knows what he's doing!!!

Hi,

Just let me know which I'm playing and I'm ready. OH, this is bimbo1555 but I tried to re-register using my home email and it said it sent a confirmation there but I haven't seen it so I re-registered again and am now TheRockSal.

So, again, I am in the Pacific time zone, USA and can play whichever country no one wants!

My home email is bimbo_15_63@yahoo.com

Looking forward to trying this out...played many Matrix games but never PBEM, so I'm looking forward to it.

James.

OUCH!! Good point Marcel. However, there is realxed and there is R-E-L-A-X-E-D! I am only at the relaxed stage of my career..[;)]
Now, if I had the BIG corner office YOU KNOW I would have the game up and running, but I am dreaming again...[8D]

Hi.

Just to clarify something since I wasn't in the first practice turn go around yesterday.

We all do our turns and then the creator runs the full turn, I assume. Is there a report generated to each player giving them info from the turn, such as provinces won/lost, men killed/enemies killed, diplomatic agreements/denials. OR, do we just find that out when it gets to our turn again?

That's pretty much it...I understand the loading, saving, zipping, sending part. It seems like when you load a game, it would automatically load the game parameters but if we have to do it manually, that's fine.

I have 3 more hours here at work and really want to be home studying Spain as I've not played them before....really, I need to work on a lot of stuff so I don't look too noobish!

James.

I believe that you will see the EVENTS page, or whatever it is called, when you open your turn after the first go around. However, that is total speculation on my part..

Holy Imperial Guard! We've got a full boat.

Looks like I need to slip out of work early to go practice, er, to attend a parent/teacher conference.

I haven't played PBEM before so I don't know if you get a report or not.

Well, however the info. is presented......looking forward to it.

I have to play racquetball after work......I do value my health but I'm very antsy to begin my plotting.....unfortunately, with the alt-tab thingy not working for me, I can't play around here at work...[;)]

Are there rules about talking to players about the game, outside of the game? I mean emailing each other about alliances etc. Just asking not plotting.....much[;)]

It's too bad there's not a notes attachment in the diplomacy/new treaties section.
