the way you have the boards set up, are you playing the games in tandem?

@Bluecoat1861:

OK when will the US Atantic Fleet get some respect?  Only 1 Destroyer it should at least get a CA or a Battleship

yeah, in 1940 im sure the US atlantic fleet had at least some Cruisers and maybe 1 BB in there.
weak.

i know in the past even 1 or 2 fighters on malta has caused quite a bit of frustration for the Axis in sinking transports on their way to N Africa. also gibralter was key stepping stone for British to ferry fighters and bombers to malta and Africa.

@maverick_76:

Thanks again DJensen for the pics and the info, it’s like feeding a starving puppy.

WOOF!!!

@kdfsjljklgjfg:

I’m rather surprised Malta is empty.

Malta is empty and Gibralter has a unprotected AB and NB?

South Africa starts with a minor IC and a NB very cool

Gibralter starts out with an AB and NB and no troops? Malta gets nothing?
nothing to defend these TT out of the starting gate.

what are the global rules like?

by the way speaking of reality TV, i know its not the correct thread to post this in or anything, but while we are waiting anyone have any good stories about late night AA games when a rules despute turns into a full blown screaming match? i have in my house at 2 or 3 am and watched friends at each others throats becouse the war was going bad for their side.

What happens when the pics are posted and everyone starts posting at the same time? can the server crash or something?

Ouch! messed that one up. sorry

@Dylan:

Also when people go back to this in a few years it will look bad when the first few pages are about

Pictures!!!(11111)
I’ll kill you if you don’t post anything
I know where you live NOW PICTURES!!!

Like even the mod is wining for them, like all these posts should be deleted.
Are you kidding Dylan, a bunch of adults getting so excited over a game is priceless. anyone feel alittle like a kid again?

Im excited too, but watching this tread for all your reactions is very entertaining. this forum should be considered for a reality TV show. so many funny and interesting characters.

Global 40 will be the best, but thats if your not counting ILs games. still waiting for something definitive on that thou.

@djensen:

If you kids don’t settle down back there, I’m turning this car around and we’re going home.  :-P

LOL

i dont see the point of Hungarian tanks.
New house rule for all French units: on roll of 1-3 they drop their pants and run! lol

exellent map!!!
question, for example one of the pictures shows Yougoslavia with 4 infantry. are they in smaller TTs in that country or are all 4 infantry defending one single TT?

Any decent German player decimates the french within the first 2 rounds. Why would French pieces be that important, they wind up back in the box so quick?

i think your tanks need alittle tweeking, but the infantry pieces? im sorry but i dont think i would ever want to get used to them. i think alot of us AA nuts feel the same.
i would like to see a dedicated anti-tank gun, tank destroyers,and maybe a railgun. love the idea of seperate infantry thou,(machineguners,flamethrowers,bazooka men,etc)

@dinosaur:

The biggest problem I see for a Race to Berlin is that the German player gets to decide who he wants to let win.

ahh!
did not even think of that.but like i said in previous post Germanys incentive is to hold out until the allies run out of reinforcements. by blowing up bridges and disrupting supply lines Germany could win. it wouldnt be easy but i wouldnt automatically assume germany would lose. in FORTRESS AMERICA game, America won a good amount of times even being attacked from east,west and southern boarders by 3 separate enemies trying all to achieve individual goals. i dont know? any better ideas on this?
