What's the time frame for starting this campaign? I'd love to participate but with the end of the semester and the holidays coming up I might not be able to to the degree one would like for this.

What's the time frame for starting this campaign? I'd love to participate but with the end of the semester and the holidays coming up I might not be able to to the degree one would like for this.We'll probably be starting the planning, rules discussion and step by step of the sequence of play within the week. Actual fighting will most likely start in 2-4 weeks depending. Existing players who have RL commitments can pass on a turn if they need to and jump back in the next turn. New players will be able to jump in at the start of any operational turn. The key will be that the teams stay even in numbers each turn so everyone can be paired up for Pbem's.

Double Deuce

26 Nov 07, 00:57

Ok What are the Military forcesAs Skirmisher mentioned we will be using the Angola OOB, October 1976 for force selection.

The map sets will be created using the Ethiopian map #'s in the Editor. EDIT: I will be using these for generating the "Base Map" but each map will be tweaked to make them as different as possible and to semi fit the terrain in the operational map hex.

Please write down in numbers of the Angola progovernmental army of the Soviet military advisers:

Artou

Asidun

VLOM

All of them commanders of club Steel Panther Russia.

Yeah, unfortunately with the semester winding down and the holidays approaching I'd probably have to pass so much someone else would end up essentially taking my place. Maybe next time.

The game is free. I'm using a free copy of it.
It hasn't even started yet,just preamble at this point.
These CC's dont move quickly as a rule. But its fun to fight,rather than a generic PBEM battle where everybody is sporting the latest hi tech toys.

If I can get Vas, dita and VLOM online at the Combat Campaigns forums that should even the teams at 6. In that case I could still use you on either team so let just me know your preference.

If you haven't already can you please translate the FCW - Pbem Creation (http://www.gamesquad.com/forums/showthread.php?t=72118) thread for any other members of your team needed so they fully understand the process. It will be very important since the Pro-Gov team will be the ones tasked with setting up the actual Pbem files based on the settings provided and then sending to the Rebel team to purchase their forces. Because we will be using Full Security it will be imperative that they can follow the sequence, step by step.

The rosters have been updated. There are 6 per team with 5 on each having Secure Forums access.

At this point we have 3 more applicants that have yet to be assigned teams. Depending on who needs players i will assign them accordingly, hopefully to the team of their choice.

UNASSIGNED:

mr_clark - (No Team Preference)
Shan - (No Team Preference)
Billybob2002 - (Rebels)

I have updated the roster;

Billybob2002 is now Rebel Commander and AshTray will be a Pro-Government Commander. They both have access to the Secure Forums at the CC Website.

I am holding mr_clark and Shan in standby for the moment while I organize some things. I should be assigning you guys to a team in the next day or so, so if you two have any preference please post here. ;)

Double Deuce

20 Dec 07, 12:18

Since each team has at least 7 players now I will need you to start planning the 1st 3 attacks and who will will be the commander's for those attacks (please post in your secure areas). 3 of the remaining commander's will be involved in defending against the 3 opposing team attacks. If I add 1 player to each team (which I have 2 ready to add to keep the teams even in number) then the attacks available will go up to 4 so go ahead and start your planning! http://www.combat-campaigns.com/Smileys/default/cool.gif

Since we have 16 players (8 to a team) I will be halting all applications for the time being. mr_clark and Shan are IN I just need to assign them to a team.

I will need dita and VLOM to post to the Combat Campaigns forums, otherwise I'll plan for 7 players to a team when we kick things off.

THIS IS A PROPAGANDA MESSAGE TO THE REBEL FORCES OF ANGOLA.

Lay down your arms and surrender. You can never hope to defeat the power and experience of the Angolian State Army, nor can you hope to withstand the cunning of our Soviet liaison officers.

We promise, that all those surrendered will be treated fairly - we will spit in your faces, de-flower your wives and daughters, and make each and every one of you become a personal butler of every serviceman currently fighting for peace in Angola (and you'll naturally have to change your first names to "Jeeves" or "Henry").

Your bastard leaders cannot lead you to victory.

Give up now, and we shall be lenient.

The GOVERNMENT has spoken.

Fokkov

24 Dec 07, 14:09

We have, Angola United liberation front , full confidence that if all do their duty, if nothing is neglected, and if the best arrangements are made, as they are being made, we shall prove ourselves once again able to defend our Angolan home, to ride out the storm of war, and to outlive the menace of tyranny, if necessary for years, if necessary alone.
Even though large tracts of Africa and many old and famous States have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Imperialist,self appointed Goverment and all the odious apparatus of unlawfull rule, we shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in Luanda, we shall fight on in the forest and jungles, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength on the ground, we shall defend our Homeland, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight in the cities, we shall fight on the hills, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the sewers; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this great land or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our forces beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the CIA, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the Old. :ar15:

We can proceed without him till he can join or find a replacement. I will just ask that one of your commanders play the extra battle to make it even (8 Pbems). This means 4 attacks for each team with the other 4 players on the team playing the defenders in the 1st Turn.
