willing to play a full 2x2 game?

[Fazman]

Hello WaW junkies,

I'm right off the transport but willing to go the distance with a 4 player pbem game...
(sounds like most end in early capitulation due to lack of some players not winning[:-])

I'd play any side but thought R/Ch would make sense for my first attempt.

Hi Fazman,

it is a pleasure for me to join your game!
I would play either side, but not the Chinese alone, that is too boring for a human being, it think!

Greetings from Germany

[Fazman]

I'll play Russia / China

Post yer email address and prefered settings

these ok?...

FOW : on
Advanced Supply : on
Auto/Area : off
Fuel : on

2 more ...

I would be willing to play assuming you all are dedicated. This is actually going to be my first PBEM for WaW, although I have some experience playing WitP PBEM. In any event, stick me with a country that won't require too much knowledge of the supply system. I am still getting used to that. Email is FordRamsey@carolina.rr.com

[Fazman]

My first pbem attempt too. I'll stick it out till the bitter end and dust of meh creative writing skillz for corny AAAR's ( the extra A is for awful [;)] )

looking forward to it

One more needed ....

[Fazman]

I thought a little walk a mile might be in order.

So far:

Germany : GOPconservative1
Japan: a511
Russia/China : Fazman
Wallies: Cunki

I assume spring40 start with above settings once the emperor picks his command staff.

[GOPconservative1]

Alright. Just don't expect anything too spectacular from German.[8D]

[a511]

hi!

while its not my first pbem, i havent play Japan in a 2vs2 game before ... so why not give it a try!

GOPconservative1: i will pm my email address to u now.

Ok, It looks like we have everything lined up. However, I am not familiar with how PBEM works in this game. I assume Germany has to send the file off first. So.... What exactly do I need to set everything up as preference and gameplay wise? Also, do I just take my turn and then it will automatically go to the save game screen as in WiTP?

[a511]

my fellow axis partner,

yes, germany has to send the file to Jpn (ie me)
just set the game options as mentioned by Fazman in the game option, click the pbem box in main menu, make sure ger is 1, jpn is 2, Rus+Chn are 3 and WA is 4 .... and here u go!

yes to ur 2nd Q as well.

Germany sets up game and emails to Japan i believe.
Everyone logs a password on their first turn , yes?

As far as settings , ?? use the above i guess.


I'll start an AAR and confirm Cunki... Europe I believe, and probably sleeping right now[>:]

[GOPconservative1]

Ok. I will get to work on the first turn. It will probably get sent to you tomorrow. I might get together with Japan on an AAR as well. That way we can do an Axis AAR. Also, everyone will be able to see what a complete idiot I am.

Hi folks,

my email address is: griemert@freenet.de.
This is my second PBEM, so don´t expect a veteran WA behaviour, but i will try my best!

See you on the battlefield!

Best regards
Cunki

[a511]

hi Cunki!

good to meet someone from Germany (but why dont u play Germany instead?)
as mentioned, its my first time playing JPN alone in pbem game and my JPN exp never reach the pacific war (but i did play a WA game vs AI and manage to crush the JPN navy but i expect it will be a lot more challenging for human opponents).

looking forward for a great game with u all!!

Hi a511,

i said to Faz before, that i am willing to play all factions, and the WA are left for me, that is good for me.

I am glad not always have to play Germany as the evil German! [;)]

I think, JPN is the most complex faction to play, so i wish you good luck, but not too much! [:)]

I hope for a good game!

Greetings from good ´ole Germany

First turn has been sent.

[Fazman]

Curious to chart the time frame we will encounter.

Ger : NA
sends to
Jap : Far East
sends to
R/C: NA
sends to
WA: Europe

This Email save will have plenty a luggage sticker if it plays out [8D]

[GOPconservative1]

Well it should be coming around later I would assume. I sent it to the Japanese player's hotmail. You know, the set up we have really makes it quite hard to do more than one turn in a day. We are all awake at different times.

[a511]

Ger Sp40 round rec'd but cant play until im home in around 7hrs from now ...
will make it my first priority when i come home but really doubt whether Fazman is still awake when i send the turn to him.

while its not possible to do more than one turn a day on weekdays, i can play a morning round and an afternoon/evening round on weekends (Sat+Sun) and i do hope that it will improve the speed of our game ...

another suggestion, but dont know whether it will work or not, is to swap the Allies players such that the turn will go to europe first b4 to the two NA players. but thats just my suggestion for the sake of speeding the game up, im happy to have the existing set up.

anyways, see u all in the battlefiled!!

We can just keep it the way it is. It'll come along.
