Of course an alternative to conning Mark into it would be to have his officially sanction and help someone suitably committed from the forums?

Yes I agree that would be the best option as far as we are all concerned, but last time I talked to Mark about EA he seemed pretty much finished with EA. Might be worth a try though - perhaps if we draw a pentagram somewhere in the forums and all chant his name .....?

One comment - you might want to post this over on the matrix forums too - it seems to be more active over there, and there is a pleasing number of newish scenarios emerging over there too which is very encouraging. For my part, I would say that this is a very enjoyable scenario. Its...

Well for what its worth I largely agree with Secadegas - especially his point 6 (although I could take or leave point 5). From memory 'ownership' of EA transferred from Mark to Veers around about (or maybe just before) T3 came out and while there were plans for a uber update at some point...

Yep it was WW1 style that's for sure. Is anyone else finding EA a bit harder than it used to be for the attacking side to make progress?

Welcome back screamer.

Good thought. I'll do that.

I fear my opponent is being modest - he certainly won this one on points. At the end of the game the axis were in control of Britain, Italy and all of Germany as well as the Balkans. It was an interesting game though - basically the axis invaded Britain, giving me the chance to bring russia in...

Heavens do we? I thought it was fire in the east for some reason.

Hey welcome back tiger! Nice to 'see' some old faces around!

Ah right then, I'll try not to get too excited then.

This version has been around for a while has it not?

Email sent. Yes the days of the collective are a distant memory now - mainly because I subdivided into 4 separate farms. Once the others mature we will resume the quest for world domination!!

Hi, I could probably do one more if you like, but I definately cant commit to 7 turns per week more like 3-4 nowdays. Would like to restrict the distance that airborne units can drop as well to 20 hexes, and add a limit to the number of bridges you can blow in a single turn if that's ok. If...

Well Ithink it probably is a bit weird to be able to have that many brits in Norway, but as Mark says, its a game. It has its weaknesses, but the effect is probably sensible as it opens up other options for you. If I were you I would keep going with air attacks on the RN. Rotate your fighters...

Excellent Mark. I should be able to buy a new grass skirt and move the family into a bigger mud hut.

I think at lest some of them fight on.

On a related note - Veers are you still working on upgrades to EA? I know you had a huge setback a while ago but EA is still one of my all time favourite games for TOAW.

Agree with Veers - it probably is a bit gamey, but not too bad in the scheme of gamey things in this game. Not nearly so bad as the old "use the barbarossa bonus to take Malta" trick. In my experience sealion is suicidal because you lose any real chance of beating russia, which of course means...

That's right, but good luck attacking britain without the sealift bonus. An old trick used to be to take Gibralta through Spain to boost the sealift enough to make sealion viable. Not sure if that still works though.
