LongTerm Campaign

[unmerged(16037)]

Would like to start a new campaign. 1936 scenario. Plain 1.06c, no mods.
2-3 times a week, 3-4 hours every session. Very good cable connection.
Can handle 8 players. No special rules for this campaign. Everything
allowed. Anyone interested?

We've got 5 players so far
1. Vissarion - France (USA)
2. Atomcreator - Italy
3. Colonel Warden - ?
4. Wishing_Well - Germany
5. Agazzi - USSR (?)
6. Evil Spirit - United Kingdom

Yeah, we can start nearest monday if we have 4 players at least by
that day. Both Italy and Japan are OK. I will porbably be UK.

I'm not sure if it's the same campaign but I was playing in an 8-player game that you were hosting last night. Your connection was excellent and you were a good host. But the game was rather wild - general war in early 36. I was Japan for a while (Andrew) but when I got a CTD some time after midnight, decided that it was time for bed. I'd be interested in playing again with you as host - I like playing with a full 8 players.

Thank you for approving my hosting capability

As for the early WWII it wasn't my fault. A warmonger (didn't notice
who it was, Germany or France) declared war and the big war began.

Actually I myself prefer to play more or less historically but I wouldn't
like to oblige other players with some strict rules. Anyway HOI itself
punishes players for unhistorical behaviour, high dissent value and
stuff like that. Also an early WWII is not advantegous for Germnay
because it doesn't have some useful events if it's at war before
September 1939.

As for the nighttime penalty bug, which the Italians experienced in
Ethiopia, it's not my fault either. I am not a computer programmer.
Report Paradox about that. Let them fix that.

No, this thread for a serious long term game, which, I hope, we 'll start
next week, not for a casual one like that we played yesterday

Anyway I am going to show up in Vnet again at 08 PM GMT today.
If you'd like to continue yesterday's game and have some spare time,
join

Nope, cannot make it at 08 PM GMT, I'll be there at 09.

Don't forget the Soviet Union. They declared war on me(USA) right off the bat.

 

[Vissarion]

I'm interested in a long term 8-player campaign...

Very well. So, we've already got 4 players:

Atomcreator, Colonel Warden (Andrew), Vissarion and me.

What countires are you going to play, guys?

I'll be UK, probably.


Random Hero, are you going to join us?

Is 07 PM GMT suitable for every one?


Guys, is it possible to add more flags to the scenario somehow
so as we could play more than 8 players?

I feel like I would be able to handle more than 8.

 

[Vissarion]

I'm not so fussy about country. My current favourite is USA, but i fear they might be a little boring in a 36 campaign, unless we'll roll at high speed during peace (although they don't enter war after a long time of the others fighting). Other countries I like are Japan.. I could do France and then switch to USA after they fall (that would open for another country, as USA is left to ai until I switch).

I think 8 players are enough, if you add more I'm afraid those playing less significant countries will get bored and leave, not to mention the hard time we'll have finding 8 reliable players.

OK, agreed.

Edited the 1st post. Added the roster of players.

 

[Vissarion]

I would like to reserve USA though, so I'm not out of business when the war has just begun...

And me and Andrew is currently occupied monday evenings in another game.

[Atomcreator]

I would prefer thursdays if not monday.. how about 7pm GMT. I'll take Italy.
Just hope I dont get the nighttime bug again !

 

[Vissarion]

Tuesday through thursday is fine, though preferably not all.

 

[Wishing_Well]

I'm much interested in joining. Shall I try Germany ?
7:00 PM GMT anyday is fine for me as long as I get a fore-notice.
