XPAD-01 Unterhund-505/47 (Axis) v. The Long Dark Tea Time of the Soul

[djensen]

Not entirely true. I played a live game, which we did not finish, at FMGC but Gargantua was helping me out, a lot.

[U-505]

Well, that’s more experience than I’ve got, that’s for sure. And now I’m a little happier that I left you with Japan since I’ve barely looked at that side of the board.  :-D

[djensen]

Oops. I think you guys are waiting on me. I’m out of town and  have my computer with me but I’m not sure how much downtime I have. I really need to study up on th NOs as well.

Sorry folks.

[eskander]

It’s alright. As I said previously, I’m stuck out of town in Texas on a job thing for another week so I’m busy as well.

We’ll just trudge along when we can.

[eskander]

herro!?!

[U-505]

Hello. I’ll PM my partner to see if he’s ready to move yet.

[djensen]

Sorry guys, I completely forgot. I’ll work on it tonight.

[djensen]

I got a little distracted last night when 1941 arrived. I’ll work on this tonight.

[eskander]

Ha, all good. 41 any good?

[djensen]

I haven’t played it yet. Just unboxed it, take some photos, and cut together a video.

[djensen]

I know my first turn took a while but I checked in once in a while (just so you knew I was thinking about it), you guys still there? Still playing?

Just wanted to make sure everything was okay.

[Gargantua]

Let’s try a PM, if they’re not around… we’ll call it :(

[djensen]

We’ll give 'em 3 more days. They gave me like 13 days (though maybe I’m excused so that I can report on A&A 1941?) so we should give them as much time. Then each side got a 13 day mulligan and we can speed things right along after that.

Yeah we should be able to get this game rolling a bit quicker.

Note: I used edit mode in the last turn because my nub self misclicked twice in Noncombat.  Edit mode reflects my noncombat movements. I hope its not an issue!

Scramble orders in sz97!?!

My vote is no scramble. I’m going to let U-505 make the final decision. If you don’t get a response in 24 hours, go with my decision on that.
