FMGC 2012 - Gaming Convention - GTA CANADA

@USS-Yorktown Direct message me and we can get a group chat going!

Weekly Axis and Allies G40 game!
Axis and Allies Global edition! A truly epic and grand strategy game on a global scale! Me and My brother would love to play a game of Axis and Allies Global 1940! And we want to invite 4 more people along for the ride!

WHEN & WHERE

The time and date are 6:00 PM (CST) April 21. And we shall be playing on a private server. The starting date is negotiable but it will be 3 weeks from now. The first meetup will last until everyone either has to go or is tired. Then I will save the game and we will meet up the next week.

CAN I JOIN!?

Anyone is free to join but there are a few things you need.

A love of fun

A certain knack for miniature warfare.

The ability to arrive ON TIME and on the date requested.

The ability to be able to work with other players well.

ARE THERE ANY OTHER THINGS!?

We will be communicating through Skype. So please make sure You have that.

If someone is unable to arrive for one week we will post pone the game for that week. But anyone who is late or unable to arrive twice WILL be booted out.

We will be using some rules made by Grasshopper. Mainly his victory objectives rules.

WE ARE NOT THE BEST WITH RULES! Everybody goofs with rules now and then. Some people more then others. We will try to stay on top of our game but its likely that we will make a mistake now and then. Just some forewarning there.

I AM NEW, CAN I PLAY!?

Absolutely! But, You might want to watch some of Grasshoppers videos. And definitely read the pacific rulebook.

HOW DO I JOIN!?

Well slow down there skipper! I want to know something about You before we can game!

I have 2 metal boards but I plan to just run the one game at a time. Probably 1 game per day but with global I might have to extend the time for two days. Global games can be very unpredictable on how long they run.

Oshawa, ON, Canada is once again home to the “4th Annual Field Marshal Gaming Convention” in September 2014. This year we are trying more than ever to help participants find transportation and lodging in order to attend the event. We would like to do our best to organize and encourage A&A.org members to carpool from different regions in Ontario and Quebec this year. This travel campaign should help those who live 2-6 hours outside of Oshawa, and who wish to attend this year’s convention. Please reply and tell us where you live, and if your serious about joining us in September, we can help you with your travel arrangements.

@miamiumike:

I need someone to explain a bit better how this chess clock idea will work.

Let’s say the tournament round is set for 6 hours (which is what AA50 games are set to currently). This would then mean each team has 3 hours of time? In the middle of round 6, Italy is up and opps - the Axis run out of time - they automatically lose?

If this is correct, then I guess that means we want to have NO new people play the game. Not even people who have played but are not true ‘experts’. The only situation I could see possibly thinking about using this idea would be in a Masters type tournament. That would be it. Otherwise, you will kill any non-hardcore player from ever even attempting a tournament game. For the Masters, it might work.

I’d be willing to give it a try - just to see how it goes - but I cannot see how this helps grow the number of people who would want to play in a tournament.

I discuss the check clock idea further here: http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=27947.0
