Looks like Comrade Bozo is incognito!

I am up for a campaign game.

I had tried a couple in the past, with people here, but they dropped out (either I was too good, or maybe not good enough). I am very experienced in war games. With WITE, I have played much against the computer; either side I always seem to win! Imagine that? Even given the Computer several advantages.

I assume I am an intermediate player. Would like to play a game where I sweat a little like the Soviets actually did; but don't need to be defending Stalingrad in 1941. I tend to micromanage everything.

My Strategies are simple: 1) RUN!!! 2) RUN FASTER!!! 3) If 1 or 2 don't work, think up another strategy fast!

Weather can be either, although when random, one tends to get an extra turn or two, when historical the winter starts earlier and on time.

1) I like traditional blizzard,
(have been in eastern Europe in winter; its damn cold right to your bones, and I am a Canadian!)
2) Everything else should be even.
3)I can go either way with Locked support
(though it would mean the need for adim points that are not there, so not sure how people tolerate it)
4) Don't know what this sudden death campaign game is
(wish somebody would tell me; does it force an end to the game when somebody is too proud to give up?).
5) Don't do pbem's.
6)Don't like this amphib stuff in the east.
7) Paradrops? why not!
8)Bombing HQ's, (if ya see it, its a target).

Willing to discuss negotiate anything else.
Can play at 4 or 5 turns a week, after the initial onslaught, maybe more.

FYI-I want to be Soviet!!! (not negotiable)

June 21, 1941
Radio Moscow

And so after much discussion and negotiation, with the newly appointed German Ambassador, Bitburgerdraft, the President of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics has declared on the radio to all the loyal members of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, whom each and everyone knows to listen intently, that indeed the previous treaties between Germany and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, will continue unchanged.

In honour of this continual established peace and friendship between Germany and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the President of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, has asked that the radio broadcasts a German translation of a very favorite song, in commemoration of the founders of our political ideology!

Such is to be followed by hits our great leader has requested, including one he thinks our new friend AH would like!

Long Live the People's Soviet Republic!
