Write WitP 2, or play another PBEM?
Posted: Sat Sep 03, 2005 4:59 am
I have a little time on my hands. I am trying to decide whether to use it to write WitP 2, or to start a second PBEM. Either way I need something to occupy my time between turns in my PBEM.
So, I might be looking for another game. Anyone interested in the following?
I am relatively inexperienced, but have a good grasp of game mechanics. I would probably rate myself as a decent player. I would prefer someone that will beat the snot out of me - or thinks they can. I may start an AAR at a later date, but it will probably lag the game itself for 6 months or more. I store combat reports for my current PBEM by date and edit them as I go with notes, thoughts, etc., but thusfar I have not posted them.
On a gameyness scale of 1 (not gamey) to 10 (very gamey), I'm probably a 5. If you are going to get annoyed by something the game allows, but that history probably would not, you probably do not want to play me. Things I definately won't do: put Alf's on subs, hunt USN CV's on turn 1, use turn 1 movement to move in a way that would likely have resulted in increased Allied preparedness. Otherwise, I don't know.

- A Scenario 15 game, you as Allies, me as Japan. CHS intrigues me, but I don't want to try to wrap my head around another large scenario at the moment.
- Surprise on,
- Historical 1st turn off,
- Doctrines off,
- PDU on,
- FoW on,
- DC on,
- Reinforcements +/- 60
- Auto Sub off
- Allied player gives commands in at war areas only on turn 1 (China) and may not, for instance, move AVG to Singapore on Day 1.
