Well, not really a challenge, but since all my games are so so soooo slow these days, I am pondering maybe NL would fancy something really really HUGE ?

I mean something like the size of 7000 to 10000 pts, on a huge map (could be customized, actually probably should be, and previewed), some sort of action, I do not mind defense/attack or ME ..(hmm.. maybe still it is more interesting to play A/D)... Anyway, I figure that the game would last longer, so that I don othave to hunt for an opponent for a long time :D ... ( 70 turns or something? )

You interested, NL?

Thank you, Okimaw :) ... I actually do not mind playing both of you ---- if you are interested :) I only have CMBB. So what do you have in mind, as for map, year and type of mission ?

numberz... I am confused by your words... what do you mean? Who is sneaky? :D

CMBB is fine by me. An a/d game would be good. I was playing a big game like this for a while but my opponent disappeared. Email me as to how you'd like to go about this.
As for numberz, he's from eastern Canada and insists on doing his yard work during the smog warnings they have over there...I think you understand :laugh:

Hey Xuebo,

Why don't you propose terms? I might be interested. I have a game going on at BoB (that I have to finish or I will get kicked out of the club!), but I would be happy to play once that game is done (it is moving very quickly).

I might just have to do a test to make sure my computer can handle a game that big!

OK, ok .. ok ... I just want something that can last for a long time :D ... so let us do this, for both of you, Mr. Okimaw and Mr. NL:

How about 7000 pts Allies attack, May 1944, South region, 70+ turns, on a custom map (*), totally unrestricted force purchase, standard rarety, extreme FOW, clear weather, mid-day, light wind. Pretty much a boring standard setup ... :D ..

* here is the issue: I spent a bit time, pardon my stupidity, just trying to make a map, but FAILED! ... I do not know how to a) put on victory flags, but more importantly b) how to save the map :D ... lol ... so would some1 teach me on that? I would just make some random map with much bigger size than the usual generator would create. That is it, nothing special.

You guys decide, after the map is made (by me or any1 else willing to do it) and viewed, to pick the side you want to play or play mirrored ..etc.

Again, basically no house rules. But if you guys have any, I follow. :)

What type of map are you wanting to play on? I got a map from British Tommy at the blitz, its an axis assault about 1700 x 1700, how does that sound? PM me your email addy and I can send it for your inspection

ER_Chaser
17 Mar 08, 22:27
1700x1700 is too small for 70+ 7000pts combat. I do not know how big we will need, probably at least 2000(wide) x 2500 (deep). Can you teach me how to make the map? :)

Got your email, replied 2 ;)

ER_Chaser
17 Mar 08, 23:50
Got your map, sir.

But I just discovered that the biggest point available in QB is 5000 only ... damn... anyway to increase it to 7000?

Nemesis Lead
18 Mar 08, 17:55
5000 points is pretty large! The attacked would get 7500.

ER_Chaser
18 Mar 08, 18:07
OK, NL, with you, we go with 5000pts, 55+ turns. I am still waiting to learn how to make a map though :)

If going for 7000pts is too tiresome, maybe Mr. Oki and I should just go with 5000 as well. :)

ER_Chaser
19 Mar 08, 20:06
Mr. Oki, I think go beyond 5000 pts is too much trouble, not worth it. Let us just use the QB generator then, 5000pts A/D with random map then, what do you say? :)

Same suggestions for NL of course :)

Ok :cry: but I was looking forward to another crack at a huge game, it's not that much trouble to set up really haha. But if you want just a measly 5000pts send me a set up :laugh:

ER_Chaser
20 Mar 08, 14:05
Ok ok .. Mr. Oki, you decide :)

Also even if we will go with 5000pts, you are the one to pick the side (or mirror), ...etc., let me know and we can start either way :) Thanks a lot, man!

Okimaw

Ok how about we just go with a 5000pt assault mirrored. Pick any of the maps I sent you or a random one whichever you like, set it up and send. If you pick one of the premade send it separate so I can have a looksie. I huge custom made game is a good winter project but it's getting to be above zero here and the buffalo are starting to roam again if you know what I mean :D

LOL .... thanks man.. Let us just use the random map then. Here is the parameter I would suggest, please set up your allied side and send it to me and I will setup my allied side and send it to you at the same time.
Note: I do not label my turn numbers, so from me you will get the same filenames throughout our encounter, something like this: ER(Allied)_Oki and ER(Axis)_Oki ... :)

Time: May 1944, CMBB South region
Force: 5000 pts Allied attack, standard rarety, totally unrestricted purchase on every aspect.
Map: Midday, clear, huge, village, light damage, modest trees, small hills, random wind
turns: 55+ turns, Extreme FOW.

No house rules.

Did I miss anything in specs? Anyway, I will send you my purchase when I am done with a few things. Hopefully tonight, latest by tomorrow :)

Oh yeah! :)

21 Mar 08, 17:43
Got yours, thanks, man! :)

I will probably do mine tonight.

Nemesis Lead
21 Mar 08, 18:01
OK ER--I will attack you!

I will create a game and send it your way. No need to respond until you are finished with Oki.

How about a randomly generated map?

File sent to you Xuebo. Not sure if I have your email addy right, so let me know if you get no file.

Unrestricted purchase for the attacker........good luck!

23 Mar 08, 02:24
NL, please see my other topic in the main forum ... my mail server has problems again. But I would expect them to fix it soon just like last time. Anyway, if you would like to you can use my alternative yahoo account:

XLXL15213 at yahoo dot com

But I do not think I will have time to do your turn this weekend though ---- I will have to finish the defense setup with Mr. Oki first, I guess it will take a couple of days for me :D ... (defense on a huge map ... lol ... I am already regretting :D )

when do you come back to toaw dude? :smoke:

ER_Chaser
25 Mar 08, 11:44
Hey, buddy!!!! :)

As for TOAW, I do not know, man. .. I may come back, but who knows, it is like centuries away from me now. One important thing I do not like about TOAW (and Campaign Series) is that "I GO U GO" system, and the reason I stick to CM is its wonderful "WEGO" system. And the idiots at battlefront want to get rid of this feature! :(

ER_Chaser
25 Mar 08, 12:03
And for Mr. Oki .... I do not know about your progress of setting up the defense, it is a pain in the body parts to set up the silly defense at this scale ... lol ... I am forcing myself to play it now ... but still it may take some more time ... pls bear with me :)

Don't worry, take your time. I totally concurr with you about setting up a defense at this scale, at least this scale of map and terrain. Big defenses can be fun but it depends on the map a lot of time. I'd prefer a town, heavy woods on a medium or large map, at 5000 pts thats a lot of fun and action right off the bat. Oh well we already boutght the farm so no use complaining haha:laugh:

Not impatient, just certain opponents require and extra amount of....reminding or else it's like 4 months later and "duhhh yeah you sent me a set didn't you" :mad: And for the record Mr ER does not need any reminding about turns from anybody :smoke:
