Then they missed out on balanced mod - pity.

Not really. BoM was introduced around that time. axisdominion started using it around that time.

[gamerman01]

You caught me - I did not know exactly how old BM was

[Soulblighter]

@gamerman01 at least dawgoneit is still around

[gamerman01]

Hey, I count too!

[gamerman01]

Game is 10 years old, I’m glad we still have 339 games played in 2021. Will be less this year. On pace for only 200. Trulpen and Dominion not putting up crazy numbers this year is a big reason.

Still good for 10 year old board game. Very good.

True. I suppose path to victory might revive it a bit, tho dislike the fact Italy isn’t connected to france.

[Soulblighter]

I agree but i also dislike many other things about path to victory. Not least being the strength of ussr against Germany

No one plays with tech, G40 is too complicated for tech.

I’d say the reason is the tech system is pretty darn uninteresting. Simply doesn’t work in a good way. Looked at it a while back, together with @Pejon_88, but it’s pretty tough to make it functional and fun. Perhaps we came halfways. Had some cool different ideas, but just don’t have the energy these days.

Not sure I qualify or am going to. I used to be decently ranked in the past, but the past is the past. I have gotten older, haven’t played against an actual opponent in ages :'(.

[simon33]

@soulblighter i am prepared to give you a go but i expect the game to be played at a reasonable pace.

You have triple a 2.5 going and a registered email? Should be enough.

Currently at work for the next 5 or so hours. I think I have the right version installed. I have BM version 4.1 installed and my mail is still registered for dice rolling, just need the mail of an opponent.

Did you try tokens? Or delay long range aircraft for a turn? I think it’s down to +1 movement at least.

Your last ranking was as M. I believe that means that until you have completed 3 games this year you are ranked at E this year (the rules say that players returning after more than 2 years start at one rank lower than their last ranking). Did you already get a game with Pejon or did you want a second?

Nope. We looked at introducing a new type of facility concerning research. Would be like the mIC and MIC, but RC as in Research Centre. There’s lots of possibilities finding ways to direct research (one option is groups of research projects, so the nations just go for the crème de la crème to easily) a s o, but hard to find that sweet spot balance between investment and return.

@farmboy Simon and pejon approached me for a game and running more then 1-2 games at a time is a bad idea in general. Will have to look into if I wanna go allies or axis and then look into the bids.

This is true. League rules say if your last ranking was 2 or more years ago, you will have the ranking of 1 level lower until 3 games completed, so you would be an E, so you’re worth a lot of points to people :p
