@wittmann: Knp: I agree. Ditto here!  I hope this really can be a fresh start this year for FMG, for sure, and I too wish I had a boatload of money I could invest.  I did make a modest little order to show my support, though, and to express tangibly that “no hard feelings” on my part.  Just remember, we can forgive a lot, but if you don’t tell us what’s going on for months at a time, we don’t know if we should even risk making orders for “in stock” items, as we might fear the company’s going out of business and can’t fulfill them.  So please, please keep us posted… And just as important, is not more so, keep in touch with Coach!  And please coordinate with him more closely in the future when you’re ready to roll out more new products… (…last I checked we were headed for a situation where we were going to have 3 different companies doing a Tiger I and none doing a Panzer IV, for instance…)

@Uncrustable: Seeing as its 2 different rulesets and 2 different setups, isnt 2 different FAQs needed? Combining them doesnt seem to serve any purpose, if im playing the origional G40 and i have a question, then i post here. If im playing 2nd edition i ask my questions in the 2nd edition FAQ. Or I could just have different sections with questions from original, alpha, alpha 2, alpha 3 and second edition.  In theory.    Although, to be honest, I’d just have 2nd edition and leave a pointer to a thread with answers for the other versions.

Yes please!!!

remember this one is not a league result.  well our games 1 and 2 have been pretty good but i think we are almost evenly matched…  looking forward to game 3

Yeah, I’m evil incarnate

@Amon-Sul said in L20 #2 Amon-Sul (X) vs trulpen (A+7) BM3: then if u play a few games against me, i ll take it. and u ll see its not so easy taking it back, nor taking berlin with russia :P: That would be so fun!

Heheh, why is this thread being used?  :lol:

@Maxiheimer haha, for fedt - så du at Italienerne tog en chance? De brugte begge deres bombers + 2 inf på at forsøge at tage Bryansk (sgu da godt jeg lod 3 stå). Vi er tilbage i Atlanten

It’s a lot more difficult to attack certain areas in P2V, due to the scramble-possibility from carriers and land. But I enjoy it. Makes the game more spicy as well.

I’m sorry to anyone who’s read any of the unsavory posts in this thread.  Since we can’t edit or delete them, there they are.  Look at it this way - it’s just bad ol’ human nature on display.  Uncensored, and uncut.  :lol: I’d ask a mod to clean it up, but with 100 pages I don’t think I’ll do that.

@Boldfresh: problem is, i don’t know a much better strategy to come at japan than we employed.  i know it could be better, but i don’t know if it could be ENOUGH better to reach a tipping point in the pacific early enough.    just some thoughts, please feel free to enlighten me. I of course am far away from having an answer on that but as we discussed yesterday I was wondering if a KFJ could be faster and more painful for Japan if directed from Caroline Islands with constantly threatening sz6 but also harass the money islands. This could imo also give Anzac more chances to have an impact. However the sz6 containment of course gave the option to get the Russians into play which was also annoying, but maybe not annoying enough than losing the money islands, who knows^^ Plus: In case Japan goes a lot of air and not so much fleet, more subs could be an answer. But as usual the devil lies in the detail and any approach stands and falls by the execution. We did not even discuss yet the fall of India and if that was inevitable and how the game would have gone with India in the game for longer.

Please post this again in the 2014 league thread, and then I will record it

but how did he saved himself from u taking Caucasus, Kazahstan and Siberia with Germany?

It’s been 5 years!

Think I did. Silently. A reason to access so much air.
