In our second wartime-session we had a nice game, full of a lot of noobing and epic fails
Our last MP-game was 2 years ago, on DH-Light multiplayer Mod. We had to wait two long years of upgrading our Mod to DH-Full basis that would again plunge into the old-good atmosphere of Hoi-2 multiplayer. Finally it happened!
It seems that many of us have forgotten how to play Hoi-2 for these 2 years without practice
But in any case, I hope everybody received great pleasure from the first months of the war, even Me - playing as the not-in-war USSR I had a lot of fun listening to fighting reports from the France and trying to help them with my advice - both useful and failed
There were a lot of fights on land, water and air and therefore we played at very slow speed and played only one month. Our final Save is 15 November 1939. As usual , after the surrender of France speed will be faster.

P.S.
F**king vanilla DH-Full Map!!!
This is our first (!) game on the DH-Full Map in our life! (All previous 38 big MP games our community played on Hoi-2 and DH-Light)
We did not even suspect that the Amsterdam province is not connected with that sea province which the Beach and Port, but it is incorrectly connected with the neighboring one!!!
This resulted in a completely unplanned epic sea battles which neither side wanted. Now the fleets of Britain and the Axis are damaged and forced to be repaired several month, and all it because of one little but stupid mistake on the vanilla map. In the next version of the Mod I will be sure to change the Amsterdam's sea-province to realysm - it should be the 'Scheld Estyary'! Who knows how many more wonderful discoveries prepared for us this vanilla DH-Full Map - the Map, full of epic bugs and mistakes...
let me remind you, if you didn't know, at least I fixed all map errors in the land provinces
from The English channel to the Ural Mountains.
It was really tonns of mistakes, each second province was fixed. Now this war theater is made very perfectly - all provinces have absolutely realistic
distances between them,
connections/disconnections,
terrain type and
infrastructure. But there is still a lot of work to be done to fix millions other mistakes of original DH-Full Map. It is really sad that for previous 6 (!) years of this game nobody has yet done this work..
