Hard to concentrate on the play by forum games….

Ah! Now I see it

ISIS & ALLIES
A Modern Take On A Classic Board Game!

Extremists threaten the globe!
Lead the coalition forces of Iraq, Syria, the Peshmerga, and Hezbollah into battle!
Or rally foreign fighters to join the cause of Islamic State!
As the coalition, order US airstrikes.
As ISIS, win the war on the internet to radicalize the West.

Change the course of history… as it’s being made!

What do think? It could happen, right?

Anything can translate into a board game, but sometimes you just gotta wait a few years while things blow over, and this idea might be one of those times.

Obviously, in real life this would have to be done way after the events, to avoid it being called pro-ISIS or offending ISIS or anything. It’s one thing to make board games featuring Nazis or Soviets, another to make one featuring terrorist groups. You’d have to do it carefully.

Will it be made? Probably not. Could it? Yes.

I’m not censoring anything for those douche bags…both Daesh or the PC crowd. F*ck em!

Don’t worry though, it won’t be long before US combat soldiers find their way back over there going “weapons free”. If that happens, the game wouldn’t be terribly interesting since it would be unbalanced and a seperate game dedicated to counter insurgency and wide area security probably wouldn’t sell too well either.

I recalled the Word Wars Documentary about the Scrabble tournament circuit.

It was heavily loaded up w production editing to make it viewable to the non-Scrabble audience.  Our supercomputers are not yet powerful enough to do that type of Live/instant replay editing as seen on so many sports broadcasts.

Even when all that editing becomes possible, I would be curious which advertisers would back an A&A tournament broadcast.

Maybe a few from the the golf channel.

That would be great as the quality is first rate.

Looks like a great site. Will have to give it a look.

I think that’s it.

Heh heh, no hard feelings! Anyways, last post for a little bit. Be back soon!

(and this is Chris, but the computer I’m on is pretty d*** slow, so I don’t wanna bother logging in)

the same thing happened to me , but in Gamespy

somebody told me that one of the files in the patch v 1.3.3 are corrupt or something.

the way to fix this is to go to your windows dricetory c:\windowssystem , and copy the file Dplayx.dll to your axis and allies folder.

this should replace the corrupt file with a new one that works , ever since i did this i can play the game at gamespy , i suppose the same would apply to the Zone.
