Strategies played out? All I see is axis with massed air in USSR, and a rare rocket game. That it, we cant do better then that? Nice game guys, thanks for the AAR. Captain America signing off.

@arado I ment where in the respect of Mule deer eating sage, White tail eating wheat ect.. as in where in the country. Not were in the body though yea that can have an effect as well.

Yes to elk or moose, deer...that can depend alot on where you shoot it at and so many other factors.

done

I'll try this again. Though I will not leave much of a window, find me on ICQ or leave a note here. I'll check a few times then close the post. 1939 game TPC any side open minded to scrpit changes or a house rule or two Soft Build limits on FOW on ect...

Try getting a range, or grass feed beef Konigs. You will notice a difference, depending on the style you prepare it at.

WTF are you giving 10-20% when the food AND the service suxs? The town I live in has a few restrants, and ingeneral they all Sux. So its not just where you are, its like you said.. all American restaurants with a few exceptions.

nice SS terif, thanks for the AAR. Looks like Laim's head is on the game again!

Surface Raiders = why invade Norway. UK can park a few BBs on the route and no ore for germany. In fact, exactly how many tons of shiping did the two German BBs sink? Close to 0 right? Just a few convoys were hit going to USSR, and most of that was by the much faster crusers.

ok, times up. Have fun tonight guys.

Looking like a pass from the two guys above, no one else interested in takeing on the North American champ? I crushed Laim in a mirror set by 1941, not up the the challange men?

I think I'll have a few hours free this afternoon. Say 7pm Centeral time (7 hours from now). If anyone is interested in starting a TPC game fill in times, house rules ect here.

Low tech rockets = coastal battarys. Put them in a fortress and they can dish back just as good as they get.

Island hoping works in the Med as well. Ignore malta unless the bomber is there.

Yet, my bad. Reinforcing is at 50% of new cost, dont remember reading that anywhere.

It would in an interesting test to see when if ever its best to disband a unit vs reinforce it. Rebuilt units are at 60% cost (Including tech) + X % from Production Tech. Reinfocing cost full amount, including the premium for tech So a Corps (100MMP) at L3 IW and L2 AT is 140MMP base. At str 5 its going to cost 70 MPPS to reinforce it. Disband it and rebuild it will cost. X 'bonus' + 84 MPPs for 0 PT; 69 if tech L5 (I think) Since your getting some MMPS back for the disbanding, and the rebuild cost is less then the reinforcing your only down side is TIME; Loss of Exp (basicly its gone anyway); and Moral (actaully a rebuild units starts at 50/50 vs the low value after reinfocring this unit) I'm not going to work up a total list of value, I'm sure Terif or someone else has. But if you can afford to lose that unit from the map for a few turns (one in the winter); its cost effective to disband and rebuild then reinforce at high PT. Then again my math could be like Reaganonimacs.... nothing more then a pile of BS!

Good luck, sounds like your opening went flawless.

In 1 you should include France, and perhaps Spain The ore Franco shiped to Germany was of high quality.

Remember, SC2 is a STRIGIC based game. The decisons you make on a higher level are what determines the outcome more the battlefield results. IE Diplo, tech, what units you buy and how you buy them. Blitzkrig is a tactial doctrine that was used effictly by the germans in WW2.. not strigic (those would be Hitlers blunders)! On the issue of large encirclments, if USSR was forced to have a forward garrison on the axis boader + didnt know he was going to get the Urals Industral script you would see MORE of such issue's. But since we know histroy and the scripts the allied player turns them to his advantage.. much like the idea of skelital garison of UK. From what little I have read I think WaW will be more tactically based, and therefore please some of those that posted above.

The map is too small to 'see' the blizkrieg of WW2. This is most evedent in France.

This seams weird, two months and the game is ... 2/3 done? How many turns per week are you guys averaging?

Yes few IP opponents around, happly there are ALOT of PBEM people that like to play. Sadly however this is a poor way to experance SC2, nesscary due to todays work world.. or school.. or family ect.. Drop me a line Liam, I can fit in one more PBEM game if you like.. to finish off SC2 for 07?

Dont forget alittle in Infastrucure... USA has to transport everthing she makes.. 50-75% off of that cost can add up to alot if its a high tech air or armys

nice answer Terif, thanks for working out the math.

In other words changing to more of a tactical game (force mix vs over all plan) then the present SC2?
