    As for intelligence sp "opponants" opponents & "intellegence" intelligence - Presumably you are not a native English Speaker
    Wrong, born a true American, just cannot spell worth a _hit. I need spell check for everything I do, just do not take the time when I enter here, no spell check unless I take it to another source. So you want to nail me back, do you.

    Sly - Sent Michel/Mikado the file 2/3 days ago and haven't heard anything. Tried both email addresses?
    I have tried to get a response from him for the scores from the last round and have heard nothing.

    Keep me informed, I have a feeling he might dump on us and be another to receive my cursings.If so, if no one else drops out to make it even numbers I will play you if you do not want a bye, or let me see if I can get a standbye to jump in for round two, I will post for one right now

    I don't think that I say this enough, but I really appreciate all the work that you are putting into this tourney.

    Are we still aiming for one month to finish this round? Or will the extra game lenght push it out a little further

    Since the first round was 6 weeks, I am planing on the second round being 6 weeks also. So will end at the end of November

    As far as why I am doing it, I am still trying to figure that one out also. When I was younger, I tried my hand at designing games, found it to be more challenging than I thought. but also enjoyed the challenge. Now that I am older and do not dream of that anymore, this is about the only game where I can design something and get a little enjoyment out of it. So why not run a tourney with my own rule system and get the challenge and fun from having to hear the good and bad comments from you Guys. Plus I get more feed back here than if I posted these at the Proving Grounds or someplace like that. You would see 400 downloads and only 2 or 3 comments,

    and they normally were not be consistant with each other. So I hope to get more feed back from you guys.

    I have to add that these are just my favorite games also. Replaced ASL for me.

    Thanks again Sly for putting this together, I lost all 3 games but I am tied for second place, I think that is really cool, for lack of a better word.
    Whoever said "losing isnt fun".

    Since for some reason all 3 scenarios results were one-sided, I like a format that does not pentalize you for which side you had a chance to play. I also do not think playing both sides in the same game is fair approach either. At least in this format, everyone is playing Blind, and the skills are based on playing a map with no previous knowledge of enemy Data.

    If you notice, we have a good mix in rankings, did not matter which side players were given, both sides have about the same results.

    U8led,

    Your actions was what paid off. I think you getting 2 points for your little action strategy only shows a flaw in the point system, but we're all in this to have fun right?

    I also think those of us who had to deal with byes were short changed in the end, due to no fault of our own. Then again, we're all in this to have fun!

    I think the system did just what it should have, if He preforms better than the other players playing the Brits he deserved the points, even though in this match that meant playing safe. I think he was lucky because I still cannot believe that no one won strongly with the Brits. During play test the Germans never won a match.

    The general tactic was to send a scout unit or two at one of the bridges with the complete force supporting one bridge to assault. Armor somewhat hidden but located to bring all five tanks to bear on the one crossing. Normally able to locate a tank or gun once the infantry started supporting the lead scouts, at which point if it was armor, arty would dump smoke, british armor would roll into place. As smoke clears hopefully 4 or 5 tanks firing on the one or two locations known of the enemy. The guns once revealed never lasted, arty or morters could pin them down and armor then would roll into place and finish them off. Of coarse the Germans would take out tanks with the first shot surprise because of hidden locations, I saw matches where two or three brit tanks are lost this way. But even in these matches the outcome was brit favor. Normally the 2 tanks and 2 Guns destroyed and the brits losing 3 or 4 tanks.

    Once the armor is gone, even if the Brits have only 1 or 2 tanks, the rest is how to mop up.

    The german never has all his units on one crossing, he must split his force and he does not have locations that can cover both approaches well. Thus the reason that massing on one approach does work and should work if played well normally.

    As to the one point for the bye, If there is 12 players, 2 receiving 3 points for the best player of the scenario. 2 receiving 2 points, and 2 receiving one. How is 1 point for a bye not fair, you gained more than 50% of the players that receive nothing. You are even with 66% of the field and have lost ground to only 4 players or 33% of the field. And this is adcheived by not having to play. That seems more than fair to me, but when things are not going the way you want, it must be the system (try again). Thanks for the imput but make more of a case if you are going to complain.

    Neil aka Major Tum : Am confused - Did I to any good?
    You might get a point in the "Last road out", Need Mikado to send the match in, before I can assign points.

    You are not in good shape, Highest score of our leader will be 8 points. Keep in mind that you can score 3 points each match, Bonuses for winning with the weak side and in this round, also bonuses for winning a better rated player if you can do it above the matches adverage.

    else hopefully for this next round. Not something I really wanted to do but he was not able to finish any of his matches, that is just too slow of play for this type of tournament.
