XDAP 2: Ancients for 1945 vs. Meglomaniacs

[jim010]

I think Stirling is out, so I will need a new partner.

[Me1945]

This game went out of the tournament and we can play as we want. A technical or similar win is not my goal in this site, but rather a good gaming experience that I am sure you can provide. So, I don’t really care whether you have a partner or not. Take your time and come back.

[gamerman01]

Just so you guys know Jim has been working on getting a replacement
He asked me recently to consider playing Japan since his partner’s gone
However, I’m not a Triple A’er.  I’ll see if I can at least get it loaded and give it a go.  Will let you know whether I’m in or not, soon.

[gamerman01]

Loaded up the game…
Yeah, Triple A is too different from what I’m used to - sorry, you’re going to need someone else.  Thanks again for asking, Jim.  Good luck, and have fun gaming

[Me1945]

Thanks Gamerman for your attempt.

For the records. Meglomaniacs quit this tournament game giving us the win. Our team has accepted this and is waiting for our opponents in the third round.
I personally accepted Jim’s offer to continue this game as a regular (out of the tournament) one without time limits and even open a new thread. You are welcome to join the game in TripleA or Battlemap format, if Jim wants it.

[gamerman01]

I would be happy to join if it is ABattlemap
Sorry, not flexible on that issue  :-)
Thanks for the invite

[lexgreat]

Lets convert to battlemap, then. Question is who :)

[Me1945]

We can split the process between the people playing powers. Or I can do this creative job.

[gamerman01]

I can do it.  I need to familiarize myself with the board position anyway.
I’ll upload it here when I’m done.

[lexgreat]

Upload it in the “play boardgame” thread, pls. Me1945 created a topic over there.

[gamerman01]

See that now - OK

[lexgreat]

looking forward to play against two so experienced players! GL.

[gamerman01]

Well, the big DOW decisions have already been made…
I’ll just step in and play and have fun
Looked over the first couple of rounds and didn’t look like anything too crazy has happened…  So should be fun

I’m about half done setting up the battlemap.  I’ll finish during the day Sunday, and then I can get this J3 posted for everybody

[Gargantua]

So Megalomaniacs have withdrawn from the tournament?

[gamerman01]

@Gargantua:

So Megalomaniacs have withdrawn from the tournament?

Yeah, I thought that was old news…
They couldn’t keep the team together and/or post regularly enough, so I’m a replacement partner and we’re just going to keep playing the game for fun
I thought the other team had already advanced and was probably playing their next game…  guess not
