WaW, Explorers Tweakes, and other games

[hatemf90]

Hi,

Looking for opponents for a WaW, Explorers version. Would like to test myself again.

I need about 3 people, so join up

Also if you currently have alot of free time (like me [:)]) I want to try a 1vs1 from the scinario bank, these are a few Id like to try:

Colonial Gold
Fall Grün
Netherlands 1940 v2
Tunisian Campaign
Guadalcanal

But if you have others in mind, im open to suggestions.

[hatemf90]

any one interested at all? i just need 2 players or so..

Hey I haven't been able to game since last spring but I'd take a side in Explorer since I'm looking for a game again. But are you going to use the updated version? It looks like there are some changes that need to be made based on the AAR that I looked at - like I think a land connection for Halifax?

[hatemf90]

Well, if a new explorer version is out we'll use it, but to my knowledge v34b is the latest version

Now I need 1 more player to start the WaW

If you guys are interested, my new Revised version is getting pretty close to tested enough for me to release it.

It's not where I want it to be yet, but I don't know of any "bugs", just 1 report of it going into infinite loop late in game when played against AI with screenshots on. I haven't yet taken the time to find if it was screenshots on + AI that did that, but I think so.
Only part of current version I haven't really tested in a real game yet is JA, nobody has gotten that far that has let me know at least.

So IMHO the current version of Revised (not in sandbox yet) is the best one, if you're interested let me know.

[jjdenver]

Yeah - interested.

When we get ready to start we'll hit you up. I think we need another player first.

I'll take Russia/China if you guys want?

[jjdenver]

nice - ok we need 1 more. I'd prefer an allied side if possible but i can also play any side needed if others have strong preferences.

hatemf90 can you pm your email to explorer2?

Explorer2 - can you email the new file to hatemf90? I'll pm you w/ my email as well.

[jjdenver]

Sounds fine. I'll pm my email to Germany. Which ersion of AT are we using?

[Tufkal2]

Hi all,
sent out the first turn. I am playing with AT 1.21. I left all settings on standard and activated passwords, screenshots and PBM cheat and hope this is ok for all of us?
The file I used was WaW_Revised_1f5.
Good luck

[Tufkal2]

We are restarting due to the supply production bug. Restart will be with version WaW_Revised_1g_Beta.

[hatemf90]

Ok, can some one pls send me the file?

It's in the sandbox - look under the 1f version and the actual file is 1g.

FYI - I sent turn 5 to Germany last night - thought you all might want an update on the progress so far. The only significant events so far:

German U-Boat pack sank about half the destroyers of the entire Royal Navy along with a couple of transports in the channel - then calmly sailed away (probably) back to Germany.

Luftwaffe shot down almost the entire Allied air force over the Maginot.

[Barthheart]

Thanks for the update.

Update your fleet as soon as possible. Level 1 Cruisers can go to level 2 straight away.... probably destroyers as well. Everyone already has Ships II researched.

Bad news about the airforce......

[jjdenver]

Oh - I thought I'd read in scenario notes that no lvl 1 ships can be updated. Maybe it was just planes.

Lvl 1 BB's can't be upgraded but apparently CA's can.... don't kow for sure about DD's or CV's.

Newsflash: Germany has taken Paris in May 40 after most French soldiers did already make for England ...
All countries should wake up now soon.
