    • RE: A bit more consistency

      Good job djensen !
      That link to the main site was greatly needed.

      Btw, what CMS are you using on the main site ?

      oh and one last thing: if possible, it would be a good idea to change the background color from blue to the gray of the SMF forum

    • RE: PBEM - Hints, tips, and tools

      I tried different map tools over the years (ABattlemaps, TripleA, MapView, and a few others) and I still think MapView is the best tool for PBEM.

      If I remember correctly, when I started playing on this forum it was the most popular. That was back in 2003.
      I think it lost it’s popularity since the creator of MapView MotCreations don’t distribute the A&A modules anymore (copyright issues).

      I recently made a long search on the net for the modules but could only find the original A&A and an ugly revised modules.

      Fortunately, last month, I found the Europe and Pacific modules sitting in my old computer at my parents house!

      If anyone wants them, just send me a message with your email and I’ll send it to you.
      It would be even better if the admins want to host the files on this site 😄

      Let me know

      Edit:
      Fixed the link to the Mapview website

    • RE: Number of units ??

      I finaly went back to the store. They offered to exchange the box but first they opened the new one to check if it was ok.
      That one was also missing pieces. They opened an other one, same thing. I guess all the ones they had were like that.

      They offered to reimburse me but I asked if it would be ok if I kept the pieces from 2 box and they agreed !  😄

    • RE: New message board

      Good work!!
      I like the new SMF forum. I miss the look and feel of the phpBB but the SMF seems to have a lot more functionnality.

      Like u said I’ll have to get use to it 🙂

    • RE: USSR opening move

      True, I’d probably do the same in that situation: Killing the Tran and regrouping in Kar.
      I’m interested to see your odds calculation (you can pm me).

      Cau would now be a dead zone, Kar too costly to take AND Germany attack on the British fleet would be more risky too without the Sub and/or Tran.

    • RE: USSR opening move

      @aaFiendish:

      Lets assume the scenario that russia does nothing but stack karelia with what they have and builds 8 inf there with one speedbump in the caucaus.  …

      Looks like a Russia Restricted game  😉 but you don’t need to send EVERYTHING on Karelia. I usualy send some Inf towards the east and keep some Arm in the back to create counter-attack pressure.

      If you’re not playing RR then I beleive it’s pretty much game over already for the Axis.

    • RE: Japan's opening move

      @aaFiendish:

      Not only do I agree with the transport purchase instead of the factory purchase, but I would also advocate that you buy infantry until you really need speed. Since you will be speedbumped the whole way to russia, having infantry is just as useful as tanks until you face a large stack, because you have a lot of air power to attack with.

      Right on the spot!  Also the transports add mobility towards the islands, Australia or Africa if needed.

    • RE: Japan's opening move

      Although it might seem a good idea at first, a J1 factory on the continent is not optimal.
      I recommand you buy 2-3 transports instead. That way you’ll be able to deploy more troops to the continent.
