SgtBlitz…probably you and I need to have a private e-mail conversation about our strategies before we begin. I prefer we both discuss and advise each other’s moves, plans, etc…as the game goes on. I’ve played AAP40 quite a bit, so I can warn you, etc…
Check your PMs miamibeach, think we can converse that way.
Can I assume everyone is in favor of playing with no techs for this first game? I think that does make sense.

Sure. Start a thread in the PBF
Sounds good!
As for techs, my preference would be to play without them, but I really don’t care one way or the other.
I am good with typing up the turn order in a post, and rolling in a post, etc…
I am good starting now or whenever you guys are ready.
I did have one question before we begin…what do we do if someone makes an illegal move or roll…say they move a fighter to a battle that actually can’t reach , or say they forget to downgrade tac bomber when its supporting unit dies etc… Does anyone have a good system for arbitrating these kinds of mistakes.
One more question…is the attacker going to roll for his own units and the defender? This would really speed things up, but we might have a problem with taking casualties.

Just point it out and make them redo it

Yes. Most of time the OOL is obvious. If not, ask the opponent.

I think I prefer everyone make their own rolls…but I’m willing to do what the majority decides.

Yeah, attacker rolling for the defender is conventional and speeds the game up
miamibeach, are you ready to do G1?
Ok, no tech. Lets wait a bit to hear on what everyone wants to do on the die rolling.
SgtBlitz and I are still strategizing, but almost done…in the mean time one of you can start the PBT.

What’s PBT?
I think everyone agrees that attacker rolls all dice. That’s way, you don’t generally have to have your opponent be online.

Sorry, I mean PBF.
We might as well wait to see what players think about die rolling while I wait to finish up with SgtBlitz.

What does he think about the dice?
The game will go a million times faster if the attacker also rolls for the defender. Just ask if you think there is a reason to be concerned about which unit to take as casualties.
Now we need Dany, Lord Neilson, and Sgt Blitz to agree
