Dave H Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 I am currently defending against Jim Boggs in the infamous 50 turn PBEM. I agree with Jim that 50 turns is not gamey. I also agree with Axe that Jim Boggs himself is completely gamey, plus he lives in Florida. Not that there's anything wrong with that. When I finally noticed or remembered this was a 50 turn battle, I pulled some squads out of the line and formed a reserve. Ammunition problem solved. Jim, I didn't appreciate your gamey StuG destroying my completely ungamey and useless T-34. See my sig line. :eek: :mad: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ammunition problem solved. I may have neglected to inform you of the extension to 50 turns. It was certainly my hope that you would run out of ammo before you noticed. Not that this would be considered gamey or anything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Boggs Posted July 21, 2003 Author Share Posted July 21, 2003 Sadly, I am forced to bump this Thread, as the consensus I had thought was given has been challenged by some who claim not to have posted their thoughts in this thread. Very well then: Have at it! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRUMLIN Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 Radical idea - an option in the next engine to tick a box for something called 'limited recon' in assaults or probes. That would give 'sound contact' for points along defenders line, giving a rough idea of where most enemy troops were, but not all, or what they were. This might represent limited recon intel....

Michael Emrys Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 I've always treated probes as "limited recons", albeit recons in force. Taken that way, they can be fun. Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
