Lou2000 Posted February 28, 2003 Author Share Posted February 28, 2003 Any updates on the war ? Especially from the Green Team Lou2000 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Juzzy Posted February 28, 2003 Share Posted February 28, 2003 I've sent my purchase over to Nestor. Looks interesting. My economic 5 Year Plan has enabled me to purchase a company of KV1s, a regiment of close assualt SMG troops, a battery of Katyushas, a natty little field kitchen and a Komsomol production of 'Carry on up the Reichswald'. Personally, if I we're him, I'd concede straight away. It's only right, all those virtual orphans and widows brooding back in the Fascist's Lair. But, by Stalin, if he wants to prolong the agony by actually playing, so be it . I'll send over a screenshot of the map when I get it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wesreidau Posted February 28, 2003 Share Posted February 28, 2003 Exchanged about 10 files with Athkatla - Green3. Scoping each other out and fighting the recon battle right now, no action as yet though, just lots of sneaking Red-3 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lou2000 Posted March 1, 2003 Author Share Posted March 1, 2003 OK as far as I know ALL games have now started. Sandy has made it back from the US and returned the setup file so they're off .... If anybody is still unsure about what points need to be reported in at the end of the game, this should make it clearer ... These will all be added up to give your overall score for the Team Play competition. It doesnt matter who or how the scores are reported..... winner, loser, both and reported via email, posted on the forum or a screen grab. Just as long as the points are sent in and both players are happy with the scoring ! If game scores a draw in the percentage section, we'll go for the highest total points ... I doubt they will be exactly the same .. even if there is only 1 point in it ... in this case it may be better if both players forward the results ....or a screen grab would do it. I know many other tournaments and campaings use much more elaborate scoring methods ... but as long as the game is prepared to do the counting, I'm prepared to let it. And it's the method we are all used to in the game. Hopefully we'll start seeing a few game updates as the battles progress and contact is made :cool: (edited because I've just been told there may still be a problem with one game ) Lou2000 (Green1) [ March 01, 2003, 07:42 AM: Message edited by: Lou2000 ] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
athkatla Posted March 1, 2003 Share Posted March 1, 2003 Wesreidau and I are currently scouting out the ground and moving troops into position. My lead platoon have found a nice picnic spot and have got the beer and bratwursts out! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jiggles Posted March 1, 2003 Share Posted March 1, 2003 Contact (as in shooting) has been made in my game with MrByte. Do we get a prize for being the least creepy creepy around in the bushes? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lou2000 Posted March 1, 2003 Author Share Posted March 1, 2003 Sorry - no prizes for getting shot at first Keep us all updated .... Gents we may have a problem with one of the games ... Though not 100% sure yet, it looks like we may need a replacement. We seem to have lost contact with Blue 2. If anybody knows of another UK opponent who could be up for a couple of PBEM's give them a shout and see if they want to join us.

athkatla Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 Well, there we was, having a super little picnic, when.....BANG....my opponent deemed it was time the picnic was over and brewed up one of my clankety thingies, sending shrapnel all over the table cloths. One of my troops almost spilled his beer too!!! Oh well, now you done it, my guys peckers are up, and you're in for a fight! COME ON YOU GREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENS!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apache Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 Blue 3 v. Yellow 3 is underway, but no shots exchanged yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lou2000 Posted March 2, 2003 Author Share Posted March 2, 2003 Athkatla .... I have a feeling I'll be joining you in reporting some Green casualties soon ... I made the classic mistake of sending back a turn 'AFTER' I had downed a few pints of Guiness ... should have done it 'before'. I'm sure CSM Hollis will take advantage of it if the opportunity presents itself :eek: ========================================== I'm still looking for an additional UK player who would be willing to jump into the tournament if we need him in the next 24 hours. I may have somebody from North of the border who just might join, bit I think he's worried that everybody in this tournament is a battle hardened CMBB vet .......well I know of one player who isnt .......... ME! Lou2000 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveS Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 Blue 4 versus Yellow 4 is off and running. No action yet. I'll post a screenshot of the map, which is quite a pretty one, once I figure out how to do it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Juzzy Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 Nestor (red 2) and I (Green 2) have purchased, deployed and made some initial moves. We're holidaying in a lovely little valley, carefully manincured to be virtually treeless with a few scattered rockeries and tea houses dotted about. Currently, my lads are engaging in vigorous cross country hiking in the general direction of the Germans whom, I understand, are engrossed in the cricket. Hopefully, we'll be able to bowl them all out before tea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveS Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 Here's the view of our battlefield, possibly taken from a camera on a Stuka divebomber as it speeds across the map. Sandyorivich's forces are currently streaming down from the hill opposite and I've taken a few pot shots at them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lou2000 Posted March 2, 2003 Author Share Posted March 2, 2003 Hills overlooking an open valley...... looks like an artillery spotters dream map Should be interesting trying to get to those flags. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apache Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 It's definitely a '42 shot then. Stukas had cameras fitted in the rear post 42 so they could film the crap they left behind them after they got shot down in their droves after then 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandy Posted March 3, 2003 Share Posted March 3, 2003 c'mon Steve Stop fixing the fence and posting screenshots, and send me a file back! Not that I have any objections to you posting, helps me tell where my troops are. "Taking potshots" huh? Why not use aimed fire...or have your conscripts not got to that bit of their training??

Lou2000 Posted March 3, 2003 Author Share Posted March 3, 2003 Gents, I'm officially declaring Mr Kain (Blue 2) as missing in action .... or actually missing 'inactive' as we cant seem to get hold of him. We have tried emailing and waited but no response .... I'm sure we have all seen Saving Private Ryan but we dont have the time to mount our own Saving Mr Kain mission ...... To wait any longer will just hold up the rest of the rounds - So if I can get a confirmed replacement then I'm going to call in the reserves. Anybody reading this who is willing to play - get in touch - though I'd prefer to keep it to UK players, if others are in agreement we can open it up a little..... your thoughts gents ? If no replacement can be found then I'm open to suggestions as to how we should proceed. Firefly could automatically go through to the next round but there will still be an issue with the runners up matches/team play :confused: Lou2000 [ March 03, 2003, 10:43 AM: Message edited by: Lou2000 ] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
athkatla Posted March 3, 2003 Share Posted March 3, 2003 Grrrrrrrrrr, I'm really going to have to teach this upstart Wesreidau a lesson!! Not only has he destroyed my beer wagon, he has now blasted the house where all the fresh rations were stored into the ionosphere!! Luckily my drunken troops were outside having a pee, so at least they survived. This man is fighting a dirty war!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
