well look - I would prefer to play Fr then Canada,

But We have invested time and I would go where the team wanted me to. I mean I am racing home from running a $6m turnover business and whacking the kids as I race in the door...Maybe I have the problem...

But BB - some more respect please...

I cant judge how I could rebuild Japan, as its been far from my mind.

All I could do is my best and play pretty well historically..

Seems firing the doohicky events seems a reasonable option. Maybe I could 'sell' a whole bunch of units to Japan prior to Vichy - thus giving BB a new army for zilch.. querky I agree, but gets her back on her feet in 1940.

Im looking forward to playing Uk again!

Ok BB has agreed to play on as Japan with the China event fired.

I think this is the best solution as Joel want to play BB due to similar experience levels. It leaves all players as is and only fires the China event which would fire now anyway with a strong Japan player. So the game will not change and the US will also get its 1 gearing event.

So far Joel, myself, mighty, gunny, jh and BB have agreed to this only major has opposed it. So the group majoirty wins out.

I will do the nessary edits. So this game can continue like normal.

We will probably play this game on sunday night at 9pm instead of the sunday game as Ric is away.

My #1 concern now is that the Allied Fleets will only have to focus in the Atlantic and Med Sea. I can't promise i won't DOW anyone. Lets face the facts this has changed the game.

If Japan gets beaten by china, what hope in hell do Axis have of stopping USA, UK and French Fleets.... The stakes Have changed, and so im going to raise them... Simple as that. Yugoslavia, Bulgaria and rumania will fall under the Italian Axe, before or after danzig is now my perogative as far as im concerned.

I know i must sound like a petty whinger but making it out like BB and joel are a fair fight for each other just don't cut it in my opinion. Consdiering we nned the fight to be taken to the USA by Japan no the USSR.

Having said that i wont actually DOW anyone but you know where my thoughts and motives are.

No offence to BB, but with BB as Japan this game is over as it is now basically a 2v4.

Ill play on but the outcome of this game is a no brainer..... honestly.

Well i wil disband the french fleet on vichy if that ameliorates your concerns Mighty.

Id would say that BB has a long time to rebuild, and it will force a latter Japan war entry which will not do any harm.

anyway - the path clear, play on Mc Duff

I am better at fleet and air ops then land anyway. I think I will be ok with the Naval and Airforces and really how much ground fighting do I need to do anyway? I will make a go of it at least and we shall see what happens.

Well mighty i hope you dont go and DOW as you will anger Russia greatly and be at war with them, major wont stand for those actions.

Like BB has said she hasnt had much practice in MP with large land battles on big fronts. She has how ever had good practice at air combat and naval battles, which is what the pacific war is all about.

Also take into account Joels inexperience as well which ive seen first hand in our sunday game. No offence Joel, but he had alot of simple errors in that game in lots of battles, which showed his in experience. So i dont think the pacific will be so one sided.

I will make the promise that i will deploy historical size fleets, air and land forces to india. I still have to fight the Chinese hordes, where i should be greatly outnumbered.

The US wont be much of a threat to Europe until later 42 and 43. If you guys do well and boot me out of the med or even invade my home islands, well game will be very tough from there. So alot of the ball is in the Axis court on how well yous do.

On the other hand i could probably send the whole UK fleet to the pacific as Italy wont have a navy by this time, ill make sure of it. :rolleyes:

Bumble Flee said:
Actually Joel is an average player, Bumble Flee is crap. USA will mean Joel can make alot of mistakes, being the relative noob that he is, however Bumble Flee will get crushed by the Allies.

Well I agree with the part about myself. However having only been beaten once in HOI1 (by Mike I'll add) and have never (no not once) been beaten by a certain banned player in all the games I have ever played in HOI1 and HOI2 (did I mention despite the fact that they cheated?) I figure I can hold my head up as being average, but at least average is better than plain incompetant.

;)

You must remember what was actually a damn fine game where I destroyed 18 german armour in the UK. If my win was 'average' I wonder what that made your loss?

Lol, Joel, who cares about 12 armoured units? I had plenty more :D, and was building stacks more. Why shouldn't I have been careless? Haha. And I won that game, when jh was Russia, Moscow was mine and we called it quits. Whilst you were stuck on your little island.

Most games we've played, where your defeat was near, I have left the group. Once, you had reinforced a 0 strength plane and I called you a flaming cheat, so you banned me to make sure that I didn't crush you, which was obvious to all.

Not to mention that HOI2 game, in which the GDW event fired straight away - and I'm sure you felt the effects of having crappy GDE in the recent Sunday game. What's funny is that I remember you saying that the GPW firing early wouldn't have meant much, so I suppose your defeat against Mikey was because of your noobishness.

And I checked the save of that HOI2 game, LOL, you were almost out of manpower... as Russia... in 1942. It's a shame, I should have taken Bumble Flees insults to the Prophet on the chin and kept playing, just so I could have the pleasure of crushing you. But alas, I don't put my religion above a game.

Joel vs Romania in our match:

It was fun seeing you waste all your manpower, my summer offensive would have crushed you.
