I have room for a 3-4 turn a week game.

House rules I would like to see as a prefer a somewhat historical type game:

1 day turns
historical first turn off
allied damage control on
advanced weather effects on
reinforcements variable +-15days
PDU on
sub doctrine off for both sides
sub auto ops off

- One Jap port attack turn one

- Allied are only allowed to move ship which are already at sea in turn 1. no movement of ships in a port (manila, singapore, pearl harbor...) by the allied player.

-no overabuse of the turn one movement bonus (means no landings on turn 7 in Australia or something like that)

-max. aircraft in sea hex = "around 550".

-B29 only on level 6 or 7+ airfields, this should limit them to places that were big enough in real life.

-4Es on nav attack min alt 10.000 ft

-ASW TF max 6 ships

-PT boats max 6 at a base (1x6 PT TF or 2x3 PT TF. Not 6 TFs with single PTs!)

-no sub invasions

-no mini para drops. As many para drops allowed as wished but they should involve at least 500-1000 men at min.

-cutting off units only with "real" combat units, not some 10 assault point base forces

-no use of dozens of small barge, MSW, ... TFs to guard ports (engine can´t handle dozens of small TFs in one hex)

-no exploit of dozens invasion TFs going at one base, means: if you need 300 ships for an invasion, put them into 5, 6 or 7 TFs but not in 60 TFs with 5 ships each.

-a maximum of 1 division equivalent (max 3 brigades or regiments) at atolls Not including misc art or base units.

Thanks

Hello Ketza,

I'd be interested but have some counter-offers.

Play until AE comes out. I'm pretty sure I'll want to grab the new AE addition and play that. If I've read things correctly, the CHS/RHS mods are supposed to be fixes for the stock game and AE is supposed to be the 'official fix' for some of the quirks in the stock game. I really don't want to invest in learning any of the mods until after I've seen what AE has in store and this game is still new enough for me that I probably don't know what I'm missing anyway.

Reinforcement set to static. It's already a pain to work the Japanese industry - I'd like to know and be able to rely on new units that arrive.

I would like to bump up the port attacks to 2.


Regards,

BJ

I am firm on the 1 port attack but thanks for the interest. I typically play as Japanese and know how much I would love more then one port attack.

Alright - 1 port attack it is.

Just curious - if you normally play Japan why do you wish to play the allies?

If we have a game please PM me your e-mail address. I'll start working on a turn.

Regards,

BJ

I just got my butt handed to me as allies and want to do better.

Hi Ketza,

I responded to your PM and will be working on the turn shortly.

Thank you for the game - I look forward to pitting my meager skills against you. Since you normally play Japan, feel free to offer any sage bits of wisdom regarding Japan's economy and production model. [;)]

BJ

I'll give one piece of advice, get WitPTracker and learn how to use it. It will save you a lot of time making decisions.

Game on!

Ty for replies.
