Redwolf Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Group 4 combat will probably look like a one-month Hiroshima. BTW, I contacted my group by email to see if anybody insists on roman numbers or appending the text lines backwards or somefink. But I'm glad we talked about it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingfish Posted February 3, 2005 Author Share Posted February 3, 2005 Now would be a good time to a comm check with your opponents. Work out any details, prefs, toss out a couple of good insults, etc. Make sure you are patched up to the latest versions of both CMBB and CMAK. First files going out this weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cpl Carrot Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 I have found that if the attached file becomes part of the email text, if you fowrard the email to yourself the turn will become an attachment. Though I guess this will only work if it is your opponents mail server that screws it up. R 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spanish Bombs Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Originally posted by Nefarious: I noticed I am in the reserves list will I still be playing? Or am I on Ready 5? More detailed info on the reserves in a bit. But if the past is any indicator, anybody on the reserve list has a good chance of playing. The key is being able to step in quickly and being able to take over several games in mid-stream. Serving as a reserve also contributes 'veteran' status, which could be valuable for ROW VI - Space Lobster Island. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbertles Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Attention Group 10: Andrew Kulin (aka Ankulin) is having a motherboard replaced and will be out of touch for about a week. He wanted me to let you know (he's one of my regular opponents) that he is definitely in, but will have to have a slightly late start. CombinedArms, I know that you are in that group, so perhaps you can forward this info. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenAsJade Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Originally posted by Kanonier Reichmann: While I think of it, on the subject of half squads, it's pretty clear that the designers of the Combat Mission series didn't intend the game to be (ab)used with each capable squad being automatically broken up into a half squad at game commencement. If they did then I'm sure they would have chosen the half squad as the basic infantry sized unit. With this in mind I intend to hopefully come to some agreement with whoever my opponents are that there be no excessive splitting up of squads into half squads with probably a 50% of the force being the rough upper limit. Obviously it's hard to police but I think it would be clear during the game whether such splitting is being abused or not. Jim R. And will you also be pre-negotiating all the other gamey things that can be done? No attacking up the sides? No jeep recon? What about Marm-Herr recon? Crew recon? I certainly wasn't expecting there to be a "negotiation phase" before the battle... I'm hoping it wont come to that however as it becomes tedious to the point of boredom having to micro-manage twice as many infantry units than the game designers originally intended. I thought this was a tournament to for people who want play CM. CM has a set of rules. Are we adding more? People who want to play CM usually _like_ giving orders. If you want to minimise your orders time, why don't you play FPS instead? I might split all my squads in two just to give myself double the enjoyment from each battle GaJ. Steve, BFC: "If both sides play with all their squads in halves... it is more even, and in some ways a little more realistic."
