GWDWD Posted July 7, 2002 Share Posted July 7, 2002 Great quote from my opponent tonight: I guess the definition of a newbie is everything one does offensively ends in disaster. So true! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
athkatla Posted July 7, 2002 Share Posted July 7, 2002 As I am a newbie with plenty of playing time on my hands, I would be grateful if I could be considered for any future competition, or put on the reserve list for this one, or whatever else can be arranged. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 The last 2 turns in both games have been painful for my opponent. At least it looked painful from my view. I consider it revenge for his caputuring my <edit> with a <edit>. :mad: I have had no problem with the bocage. Hard to beat it for hiding my AT assests. Edited because I wasn't thinking.

Webs Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 Alan, please edit your post to get rid of force composition information. There may be folks who haven't started playing one of the scenarios and any info could tip them off. Yes, even a tiny hint could have an effect. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cpl Carrot Posted July 9, 2002 Author Share Posted July 9, 2002 Athkatla and Deilthedog Send me the stuff I requested in the fisrt page of this thread and I can set you off playing one another. Cpl Carrot 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 Doh! Sorry Cpl Carrot and Webs. I didn't mean to blab stuff. I was feeling some major relief after a couple of good turns. The beer had nothing to do with it. It looks like it is shaping up to be a mad melee at the finish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cpl Carrot Posted July 14, 2002 Author Share Posted July 14, 2002 Well I have some good news and some bad news. I guess you will be wanting the good news first so here goes: The current standings for the groups are now on the web. Go HERE to view it in all its glory. Please bear in mind that it is a work in progress as I can only read so fast Please check that the scores are correct for your battles (for those who have finished) Now the bad news: The end date for the first round has been pushed back until the 10 August to cater for the slow pokes and some unforseen problems. Now some of you may have picked up that there are only 7 pairings in the Riders of the Mark group. Well to compensate the highest scoring loser from that group will also go through to make up the numbers. Nice arn't I?

Alan Posted July 14, 2002 Share Posted July 14, 2002 Is there any chance you can put who played what side in the standings? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Pilot Posted July 14, 2002 Share Posted July 14, 2002 Holy Cow! Check out the score SpaceHamster racked up! 189 points, including a shut out! Hey, SpaceHamster! Have you got the ghost of Patton coaching you or what? Or maybe you've figured out how to reprogram all of your men into digital Audie Murphy's! Can't wait to hear those AARs.

Alan Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 How many of you guys are working on AARs? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webs Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 I have two AARs done, but I'd prefer seeing anonymous ones. And we should wait until everyone is done, too. Oh, just a month to sit on my thumbs here.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 What do you mean by anonymous? I've got part of one finished. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webs Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 I mean Carrot can post them without the writer's name, so that any sneak can't find hints as to a future opponent's style if he reads an AAR. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpl Carrot Posted July 16, 2002 Author Share Posted July 16, 2002 Have no fear. (Well some is good). No AAR will be posted until all battles are complete. As for ananamous I will think on it but probably not. Two battles is not enough (IMHO) to understand someones playing style. Webs I seem to have miss placed the results from your battle. Could you send it to me again Cpl Carrot 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 I plan to obscure my tactics behind a wall of bad grammar and angst. To add to the deception I will only include pictures of my units being destroyed or captured. Cpl Carrot What format do you want AARs in? I've been using MS Word. Am I correct in thinking that the AARs for this round will be available after the round ends? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AceYes I'm evil nercomanacer and I have trapped multple souls of succesfull generals(be aware Fion yuor reputation is growing in scales that in one morning yuo might wake up in my crystal- ball ) Umm ,no just a little luck at beginning thats all. My opponent just "let it go". Nothing to tell about. And I really dont have any necromanatic powers they are just mumbo jumbo (mutters sumthing about "flesh chamber filling and moves away) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cpl Carrot Posted July 18, 2002 Author Share Posted July 18, 2002 Word is OK. Just make sure you save the file as an .rtf so any and all should be able to open it. Nothing will be released until all battles in round one are complete or accounted for. Cpl Carrot 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
