hellraiser Posted May 12, 2006 Author Share Posted May 12, 2006 very nice game, very nice person this Baron dude. I really enjoy this game. He's an US Iraqi war vet so you clowns better show the man some respect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baron Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 I took way too long taking the English isles. The production points are way out of whack in the allies favor, still they are not making a difference yet.The Eastern front has been quiet. The RN is a collection of broken down damaged ships and the German Navy is more than a match for the American Navy. I have built a sizable reserve to counter any Western incursions on the mainland. They will also be available to operate if need be to Spain or Turkey. I'm being out played but I'm still getting in some good licks!I am really enjoying the game so far. Salute, HR!

hellraiser Posted May 13, 2006 Author Share Posted May 13, 2006 @Baron - when I told you 'ship repairing cost is a joke' I told that because I'm actually repairing them and I miss those mpps wasted on ships And yes, german navy is a good match for the US fleet. Until the RN is back in shape though It will be interesting whether the Wallies can mount a powerful strike and it will all depend if I choose the appropriate spot.

Blashy Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 HR, if you minimize your game (alt-tab or ESC) while in tcpip it should "hold" the turns and when you minimize it will start playing them from where you minimized, this way you do not have to miss out an anything and don't have to just stand there.

Baron Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 The RN continues its suicidal presense near my LF. The Italian fleet sorties and eliminates a RN carrier and knocks a BB to 1, another RN crusier is knocked down to 6. On land the BEF losses a corps and has another knocked down. As a nice plus the German army is repurchased at half price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
