Iron Ranger, I saw you posting several times in the opponent finder without sucess finding someone to play. Beside that we are very few active players at the mom, it´s really an absolute priority to own and to use ICQ. I make almost all my appointments for SC games in ICQ meanwhile. Another advantage is that you can immediately post a message and restart the game without waitng endless for a post in the forum. And additionally if you dont have enough time for a game you can just chat with somebody of our community. So the only thing i can say to you is "Go for it"

Hi, I had to change a setting in the BIOS. IRQ 5 was shared and caused the problem. Odd as i never changed something in my Bios. But now everything works fine again. Tku anyway

EU2 was quite enjoying also in SP as i tried to play almost every nation. My highlights were an very early Worldconquest with spain and a huge Songhai empire...but i also played many other nations. Beside the fact that V-net sucked the odd thing is that when playing EU2 it worked for me and when playing HOI i cant enter the chat rooms. EU2 was my greatest attiction ever, ending me to be perfect in economic affairs and lever managment. I was perfectionist in mircomangement I played the game until it was dead for me, later i did the same with HOI...and now i do the same with SC.

I played both games too, great games unfortunately MPP sucked for me so my greatest victories were to conquer the hole world by 1780 in EU2 and the conquer the world despite stoney road mod in HOI.

Hi, Since Sunday when the game was frozen during a TCIP session i have permanent CTD´s. I noticed that the sound is not working when i immediately restart SC only after rebooting it is working again. Before i cant switch on the sound. This problem occured mainly in TCIP and PBEM games. The odd thing is that the CTD´s happen almost at the end of my turn. Meanwhile i reinstalled the game but the same happened again. It seems to me either a problem with the soundcard,graficcard or a storage problem. The odd thing is that i never had problems so far and i did not change anything on my computer too. I run on windows 98 system, german verion of SC with patch 1.07g. Any ideas? Tks in advance Dragonheart

Liam You are rite.. the better player will win ...not always but in most cases. Principally i dont´t need any houserule too, but i will ask my oppenents in future if they want to have some and which ones regardless of the outcome of the vote. Zapp If you make a vote and its 6:5 in favour of the rule means that 6 player want that rule and 5 not so 5 people will be unhappy with this houserule. A vote is a vote and so shall it be ....but it´s everybodies own decision to arrange another solution with his opponent.

without any tech is maybe a bit overdone...but a buying system would be great....lvl costs 250 levl costs 350 etc..... In another game yesterday i got tech levl 3, jet levl 3, LR lvl 1, tanks Lv 3 until Barbarossa unfortunately always ag the wrong opponents. When i have such luck i dont feel good and have pity with my opponent. This game should be much more based on your strategic skill not on luck.....thats why it´s called "STRATEGIC Command" isnt it??

I see many different opinions here....i dont think we will get a result out of this vote. Let´s state all open points and the players should decide it on theirselves when playing each other.

It came as i feared, this delay in the ardennen, caused the early defeat of myself. I provided not many possiblities for zapp to train his carriers but he could do it in france as my progress was to slow there. Meanwhile i hate this chit thing as in most of the games i m way behind my opponents.....tell me how can you win if you are 3 lvl behind in air??? But i wont give up...once the sun is shining also for me.

ok here my 2 cents.... In Poland my standard attack failed so turn 2 was impossible but turn 3 was ok for me. I attacked LC with army+corps+3 airfleets i.o. not to risk a tank. I had heavy losses in France 1AF, 1Tank, 2Armies, 2 corps. Zapp put a very good fight there, and used his complete airforce + carrier to harm my forces. Unfortunately his army in the Ardennen could sustain 3 rounds of cobinded attacks. With an risky attack i got Paris some turns earlier than it looked like, it costs my one AF but it was worth it. I did not go for Brest as the allied air was to strong for me. Norway failed as my units just did minimum damage. It was my longest Norway conquest since i play . Vichy,Sweden and Egypt was an easy conquest as Zapp concentrated all forces in the channel. He made it clear why he is called the airking. With his lvl 1 jet i lvl 1 LR he destroyed the garnison in Paris, Bruessels and one garding the mine. No way to do something there. My minor allies joined very very late...so i lost alot of important MPP. Due to my heavy losses i changed my reseach programm to technology instead of all other possibilities. I´m now at tech 2 this will help me to regain some of my losses and having enough units prepared for Barbarossa. Over and out Dragonheart

Curry, not before March 2004 i fear....but you can scribe in anyway, if you have questions concerning rules,language etc. you can ask me or Terif or even some other german players which are members of both leagues. Would be a pleasure to help you.

I know it´s not easy but i try to have fun and a perfect game. Even more i tell weaker opponents what is going wrong and what they could improve in their gameplaying. But don´t worry i was doing exactly the same like you when i started MP-Games. But i learned very quick and now i´m a rather good player. The 2nd place in Zappleague is not really representing it correctly as there are a lot of better players arround than me. @neros cat For the LC gambit you have to operate 1 tank, 1 army and 1 HQ to the LC border, additionally you fly with all your fighters there. Exact placement should be the army on the riverhex, the tank one hex above and the HQ in the middle of all units, to be on the save way you also move the corps from munich to the river hex bordering the maginot line. Now you have 6 units for attack this should be enough for LC in one round...... But....although it is a 99 % chance to suceed i have to admit that in failed in may past multiplayer games.....but maybe i m just the unluckyiest player of the world In which tech you invest depends on your overall strategy. Hope this helps Dragonheart

Hmm Sombra it seems you learned alot meanwhile, maybe to much. Our 2nd game will not be a cakewalk anymore. :eek:

If DOW and landings in the same turn are forbidden the italian gambit is death anyway.

Just scribe in and you can vote.

This issues has been discussed many times before. Concerning the bid you are rite. In a normal Z-League game i usally bid up to 350 for axis if i wanna play them, therefore its not a good solution in the PL the play a mirrored game.

@sambra...na warst wiedermal ein paar Sekunden zu langsam

1. yes 2. yes 3. yes 4. yes 5. yes 6. yes 7. yes 99. forbid embark/disembark bug Concerning 7. DOW and immediate land attack is allowed but no landings in the same turn of DOW

I already wrote my opinion in the other tread. I would forbid everything.....as all mentioned things will be the reason for an early end of the game. I would change the biddingsystem to a 1:4:8 system (GB:US:Russia) @ sombra .soll das eine Anspielung sein? [ November 06, 2003, 10:59 AM: Message edited by: Dragonheart ]

I came to a time where this italian gambit was already forbidden. (RRG+normal Gambit). So i never thought about this issue. My 2 cents concerning this gambits is that major powers should be untouched and proteced through rules. Otherwise the game would be messed up completely. If you allow the Italian Gambit you must also allow the american gambit or early landings in russia. The future-games will see then everytime the same allied move....destruction of italian navy...bumm no counter possible....thats the point. If you wanna sustain a little bit of historically game than germany should get in troubles mids of Barbarossa when USA joins not early in the game. Let´s make a stronger USA and forget that crap about the italian gambit.

Does LR just increase the ability of spotting,moving and range or does it also provide more combat strengh? For carriers it also provides more combat strengh but for fighters??

Hi Zapp, This morning i wrote a message in the PL-Forum in order to recruit atticted SC-players to the league and to the current CUP event. Maybe a possiblity to bring more action into both leagues. Shall i translate you the german words or do you use your knowledge and translation machine?? Don´t mind just kidding :cool:
