Hi everyone, looking to start a new MP group, new forum members are most welcomed ? Maybe once a week. We can discuss details later on. I just don´t like lot´s of rules and that kind of stuff, who exists in so many groups. I just want to trust everyone will play for fun, and be on time :)

regards to you all,
AKI

Hi Mate,
I'm looking forward to play my very first time in MP and I hope that Conte-Ita in the "New Monday game free" forum thread is searching for people to set up a match; have a look at the thread and post a reply so we can all group into a single initiative!!

Hi everyone, welcome on board :)

I want to make a few sugestions regarding our group. We will keep the "drafting" period open to newcomers until sometime next week, after that we will start our game with whomever is here.

after the "draft" we will start discussing the details, like the countries, special rules, time fuse and so on..

Is this ok with everyone?

This is great.

We actually founded a new group just recently, and I have to say as far as setting up MP games of HOI 2 this is defintely the way to go. We have an e-mail list that we mail out to, and set up games, so it might be good to combine our efforts a little, so if you guys are interested please feel free to sign up at the K2 thread over here: http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?t=298443 .

Also if you guys are in need of players let us know, and we can send the information around to our list.

Also, put me on your list, I am always up for a game, time permitting.

Cheers, and good luck,

Cue

Thanks alot cueball. I´ve also checked your thread. However allow me to say this...I still don´t know where this will lead to, and maybe we can somehow combine efforts or merge in a new group in the future. My previous experience in MP ( Not in HoI2 of course ) tells me that it´s better to form a small trustworthy group than a large megaclan. :D

Besides HoI2 has what, 8 or 10 playable countries?, anyone who thinks Portugal or Albania, or even a country like yugoslavia, is worth playing in an MP game where all majors are humans, is just wishfulthinking.

So too large groups end up with a bunch of ppl playing small boring countries ( whoever thinks otherwise try playing Portugal in an MP and you will see )
and those ppl start getting demotivated and drop out... Some may still hold for a while.. play a major when someone fails to show up, and then in the next session they just get "pushed way " cuz the previous owner is present. And so it´s no use in trying to form large groups, coordination is virtually impossible, the fun is limited only for those who "arrived first" cuz they take all the "fun" countries first etc, etc. :(

So what I say is, I hope I can form that small 6 or 8 member group here first and then we´ll see... Just trying to get a dozen people present in Valkyrie to play is a feat in itself, trying to get a group of 20 or people going in HoI2 is just plain dreaming... :eek: But well future will tell, still I hope you can get the play started and get alot of fun doing it. ;)

Hey I totally see what you are saying. Just thought I extend the invitation. Getting 6 consitent players is a definite challenge.

As I said, if you ever find you need players, or are trying to set up a game, let us know and I will post it too the list.

Well, the group is still forming, so we haven´t decided which expansion we shall use... I was hoping we could play using ARMAGEDDON. But let´s wait a few more days so "gather" a few more players , and we can start going over the details. Ok ? I had thought to keep the thread open to "draft" untill wednesday 9.00 PM GMT. And maybe start the first session in valkyrie friday night or so....

The Group is now formed. The members are in alphabetical order :

- Aki Mackensen
- Iudex
- Mystic Aubuchon
- Nicophorus

Now, guys msn isn´t use by all, so we can of course use Forum PMs or msn with whomever is using it, and of course chat in Valkyrie when we Start Playing. But I propose all group rules be discussed here in the thread and accepted by majority, if a rule hasn´t been discussed before we start a game it can only be used in the next match.

For now only Nicophorus as expressed his preferences regarding country so he says he Plays any major except USA or Germany.

I Suggest each of us writes a post, more or less like this :

- Preferred country

- Preferred expansion

- Time and day\s to play ( Please put time in GMT )

- Rules sugestions or modifications ( If any... )

Thanks Guys

- Preferred country: Japan, UK, Italy

- Preferred expansion: Hoi2DD 1.3a (I suppose its time to buy armegedon, so I can do that too). (prefer 1938 senario, just so war comes faster, but i'm easy. any is fine)

- Time and day\s to play ( Please put time in GMT ) Friday and Sunday fine with me. any time.

- Rules sugestions or modifications ( If any... )

-AI: normal AI agressivness: normal (putting the AI on very hard would give countries with big AI controlled puppets a huge advantage I think).

On the other hand getting puppets would be more difficult. AI; very hard and agressivenss, Furious means that AI Nat China is no walkover for Japan. Just saying. I'd like to know how the experiment works out.
