Ah I like what I see,

That is Positronicas Original map, You can tell, look at the German Possesions in Afrika

Any way, I like you thoughts on this map, Thank you

As for your thoughts for set up, If you look real close it basically Mirrors Pacific and Europe Games

I do not think that taking 2 Tanks and 100 pts of Jap Navy away will help.
If you are using Posi’s set up charts, you should be using his IPC values also. the allies make WAY more then the Axis. I have played around 25 games on this map now and itr plays pretty even, The axis have won almost half of our games.
Besides the Axis should steam roll the allies for a couple of turns, then get thrown back, It’s all about the Dice. :p

I am interested in what rules you have used.?
If you are interested I will post what rules we use.

I have that map also printed by a local printer, and what a outstanding investment, set up charts and map all less the $80. My map is 15 sq ft. smaller then yours, but larger then Posi’s Demensions

I am working on this map but my map making skills suck and I do not have much free time. Too busy playing and not designing.  :evil:

If a Huge map is what you want, go 8x4 or a tad bit smaller, That way it will fit on a standard sheet of Plywood or press board.

Deep blue took off after we agreed that we were both passionate about this project.  I fear he is gone forever on this one. :(

Man I would love a review copy

Don’t forget about Italy and China.
:-D

I think it would be a neat game if Russia and GE had a slim chance to work out their differences peacfully

The problem is with paying extra money to perform an airdrop, it’s too easy,
Like stated before a para drop is planned way ahead of time,  This takes time.  Most para troopers were volunteers from every nation’s military, and trained extensively in Para ops. from their inception into the military. They cost more to train and that is why the Para trooper costs more then the standard Joe.

If all one has to do is pay $2 bucks the night before and issue standard infantry with Parachute’s, those grunts would be slaughtered.

In game terms, the para trooper would be better then tanks, they would both cost 5 but the inf could move 6 and the tank 2, and they get that ability from those free C-47’s the gods dropped down for every one to use.

Way to powerful of a piece IMO

If I remember correctly Para’s

Cost 4, 2,2 Must be trans ported by a Transport, no bombers,  Imagine 82nd AA jumping from B-17’s

Transport I believe is 8 IPC carries 2 (yes use old Bombers)
If hit by AA Trnny and Troops inside are lost
Tranny have a 0-1 att, Def.
After AA Fires, Transports can choose to disembark or not, this happens before air combat. If a trnny drops his load, it is immiediatly removed from the combat.If a Trnny does not perform a drop, it may stay in the combat and has an Att. value of zero.
this is to prevent trnny’s from being cheap aireal fodder
The 1 defense for them represents the defenses of their home airbase
A tranny would only ever roll a def. die.
As for the cargo aboard the Trnny, if the owner of the Tranny chooses not to unload his transports or part of them (the formation), when performing a para drop none or all disembark the transport. the transports that remain in the combat  can be used as fodder, So effectively if a trans port is selected as a casualty both the cargo and the trnny are lost, 12 IPC loss= 1 PARA TROOPER + TRANSPORT  or 16 IPC loss of 2x Para’s + 1x Trnny

Para’s and Trnny must start there move in the same space.

Yeah you are correct, I am used to getting there by the Blue Nose out of Portland Maine.  It is connected to the Mainland by a stretch of land big enough to Spit across

Flashman-

Nova Scotia is an Island of Canada, along with PEI and Newfoundland.

Yeah, You pretty much beat me to the punch on that one Fox.

And I am serious about giving it to JPN, even though I have a German Av.

Try thinking globally instead of locally.  :evil:

What ever the bid turns out to be, GIVE it all to Japan.

@cyan:

i have battlefield and it was pretty easy to beat. i got stuck on the last level for a while and teh level with the chinese having to capture the 3 cities.  but other than that it was easy. if they made it multiplayeer, and a bit harder then it would be a great game.

but what does everyone think of ghost recon?

It is a multiplayer game on live. up to 12v12, full use of vehicles and more.

the multi is all i play of that game, it’s the only way

@M36:

Dude, Deaths Head, Battlefield sucks a**, Halo pwns everything. You can get killed by a shotgun from 100 yards away in battlefield, it just sucks a**.

maybe you suck a** at it, thats why you hate it.

where did he go?

As far as I know there is a Halo 3 and a Halo Wars

I heard the same about Halo Wars being a RTS game,  Probably similar to command conquer with a little Age of Empires but with that spacey Feel.

We’ll see, I may have to pick that 1 up

Yeah that would be nice but you know it won’t happen

It’s done?

Where’s the link?
Did he just add it to his sig.

Did this thread die?

I just attached the link to one of the other threads. Didn’t see this
