A&A World Cup 2012 Discussion


  • So after some rearranging of furniture in the new apartment to accommodate the appalling lack of electrical outlets, my desktop is back up and running, so I should be able to compete normally in the next round of the tournament.

    Alright, the Olympics are starting and I think we should probably get this going.

    Team EU is set:

    Revised = Funcioneta
    AA50 = Yoshi
    G40 = DutchmanD

    –------------------------------------

    The US Teams are:

    Revised:
    Mojo and DM

    AA50:
    Gamerman and Bigbadgoo

    G40:

    SAS and thatonekid

    I believe these are the US teams. I believe thatonekid is the other G40 qualifier.  He hasn’t been on since Apr, so we may need a substitute.

    I’m going to randomize the two US teams

    First player listed is 1, second is 2.  And just match up numbers for the teams

    Revised:

    DiceRolling 1d2:
    (2)

    50

    DiceRolling 1d2:
    (1)

    G40:

    DiceRolling 1d2:
    (2)


    I don’t think any of the Team Commonwealth players showed up.

    So we need 3.  First player to sign up gets the spot.

    We need one to play Revised, one to play AA50, one to play G40.

    If any of the original Commonwealth players sign up they’ll get the spot.  Garg and Cow are you guys still interested?
    U-505 would you want to take a spot on Team commonwealth?

    I’ll give commonwealth players until Friday to “sign up”, again first priority to anyone who initially signed up.  If we need players after that I’ll see if I can recruit some.

    Yeah, I’m in if true Commonwealth forces can’t answer the call. I’m allergic to revised, so it would be either Global or AA-50 with a preference for Global.

  • '10

    I registered as team commonwealth since the start, and didn’t have to qualify since none of my possible opponent showed up.

    So i’m in this one for Team commonwealth.

    A while ago, Gargantua also wanted to join, but got no answer.

    So team commonwealth could be, me, Garg and U-505

    Which game did you want to play?

  • '10

    I’m playing only global.

  • TripleA

    I’ll play revised. I miss buying mostly armor with russia until japan shows up.

  • TripleA

    I don’t have battlemaps for revised, would prefer not to type my movements out manually and use tripa instead.


  • yeah, im in, but i dont remember how this is working out, just send me a msg with who im supposed to play, kk?


  • Classic anyone???- retro colors??? JK- actually that’s 41 now


  • So we’re waiting on Team Commonwealth for match-ups at this point?

  • Moderator

    Yeah, I think we are set though.  I think we can take U-505 as a substitute if he is willing to play AA50.

    So Team Commonwealth would be:

    Revised = Cow
    AA50 = U-505
    G40 = Axisplaya

    Team Commonwealth would play Team Europe and the US teams would play each other.

    I’ll give it another day to get the okays, and we should eb underway by the end of the week.  I’ll repost rules too.  But basically the team needs to win 2 of 3.

    G40 is 3.9 right?

  • '10

    And, can we Triplea it?

  • Moderator

    @DutchmanD:

    G40 is 3.9 right?

    Is that the generally accepted version?  I mean do most people play that.  I have no idea about G40, so whatever is played now.

    @DutchmanD:

    And, can we Triplea it?

    Yeah, if both players want to.  Obviously use the auto posting to the forum for games.  I guess Abattlemap will be the standard, but players can agree to upgrade to TripleA. If there’s a conflict use Battlemap.  That seem fair?


  • Why are the US teams playing each other, and Europe playing commonwealth?

    Is the idea to have a championship between the US and Eur/UK or something?  I thought the playoffs were over and the people representing the USA were set.  But if USA is playing USA, then isn’t that essentially just another qualifying round?

    Confused.

    Exactly.
    Its like the Little League World Series, where it always ends up with US vs. International.

  • 2007 AAR League

    I’ll be a bit intermittent posting for the next couple weeks as I am watching the Olympics online pretty regularly, but I think I can get in a post every other day. If that’s a problem, let me know.

    Yea, it’s G40 3.9, final version. The same one being used in Garg’s tourny.  There are changes to the NOs and the turn order.  Holkann said he can update Battlemap next month, but until then, here is the correct placement for the starting units.

    Big changes, besides the NOs and starting units:

    • aa guns can be taken as casualties and can fire at a max of 3 aircraft.
    • convoys are different, but most people are “house ruling” playing under the original format for convoys because it does not involve rolling dice.
    • Italy goes before the Anzacs in the turn order.
