Players for Multiplayer game wanted! (CLOSED)

Greetings!

Looking for players who are interested in joining a not yet started Multiplayer game. Format is 4 vs 4 (but that is flexible, more or fewer works as well).

These games are slow due to the number of people involved, only players who are patient and willing to commit for the long-haul are wanted. There will most likely be players leaving during the game, therefore a list with a 'Generals pool' is maintained, feel free to sign up even if many others have before you. Beginners are welcome, but it is expected that you are decently familiar with game mechanics, rules and user interface.

Positions for each side (guide only):

- Chief of Staff (required position) + Air Marshal
- North Ground Commander
- Center Ground Commander
- South Ground Commander

The Chief of Staff is the overall side-commander, responsible for that side producing turns, and point-of-contact for any inter-side dealings.
The Air Marshal position can be held by any of the 4 players, or even be assigned to a 5th player.

Me (Darojax) the organizer have experience from 2 previous MP games. Feel free to contact me on discord if you have questions etc: Darojax#4512



If you're intested, reply to this thread with your name and preferred position (if any).

Yes, I am interested. Prefer a ground commander position. Either side is fine with me.

Darojax, from your experience, what is a tempo in such games, i.e. how frequently player makes a move (once a day, once every three days) ?

It varies greatly, all depending on the players participating.

There will be times when the game goes faster (especially in the start) and then periods where it will be slower. It's best if all players are prepared for a 'correspondence chess game pace' since it can get quite slow at times (although we do try to keep it up as best as possible). In any case it's definitely beneficial for the players to have a good portion of patience if they want to participate. In my opinion a slow game pace is not a problem and just the nature of these games, and something to be prepared for.

An additional note, we do have enough players and are aiming to start ASAP, but please continue to sound off if you're interested as there will most likely be need for reserves taking over as the game progresses.

I was rather asking if a tempo is not too fast ? :) I mean, I can respond within 24 hours most of the times. However if I would have to make a move every day, then it may become a problem for me. From what you are saying, I have nothing to worry about.

If so, I would like to be in a Soviet reserve (as a ground commander).

Will there be a dedicated discord channel?

Yes, I can confirm, in this case you have nothing to worry about. : )

Alright, I'll add you to the Soviet reserve.

Indeed there is a discord server, add me as friend Darojax#4512 and I'll get you invited to the observer channel.

Just to let people know, the game is now underway! I plan to post an AAR thread with information that is available to both sides (frontline, loss numbers etc).

We have a Discord server going, and there is an Observer chat channel for anyone who wants. If you want in, PM me on Discord Darojax#4512 and we'll get you sorted.

Also, as mentioned previously, feel free to still sign up for the game as previous experiences has shown there will probably be some player rotation.

A few more and we will be able to start our own game (but that would deplete reserves, tough luck...)
