Not to nitpick, but next Monday is actually the 19th.

Ok, I'll change my request to Corsairs then. It looks easier, and will help us get started sooner.

Well, BHG is important too. Anyway, I will be away for the weekend, so we will (hopefully) start Monday 19th. (thanks for correction, M$ calendar sucks ^^)

Don't forget, last game BHG turned into one of the nastiest groups around (at least until everyone ganged up on them, then they were nuked )

Another rules query... I presume that 'house systems' are just the ones specifically belonging to the Houses (ie. California, New York, Colorado and Texas for liberty)?

In other words, am I really stuck with 40 LF wings to start with?

probably I am to lazy to check but if you only got 2 bases then you only got 40 LF

Changed my mind again. I'll take Rheinland.

Correct.

The game will start tomorrow, I'll post a shortened version of the rules with some minor changes, and you can start your first turns.

Also, I need (at least) one more judge - mostly to resolve my turns and check things after me. I suggest The Creator, as he has played the most games from all current players (at least AFAIK).

Post Sun Jun 18, 2006 11:51 am

Sure I can be the second judge no problem. Just send me the battle calculator.
So the game starts tomorrow huh?

What time (GMT)?

There is a specific timetable for moving units into battles. It is based around the TLR main clock,
which is about eight hours behind the Greenwich Standard Time. The timetable is:

12:00 AM (00:00)- 3:00 PM (15:00): Daily turns may be posted. Battles from previous days may be
resolved. All turn actions EXCEPT for battle declaration may be completed. Units may be moved,
but not into or out of hostile territory.
3:01 PM (15:01)- 6:00 PM (18:00): Battles may be declared and resolved against NPCs and
players who have already posted their turn for the day.
6:01 PM (18:01)- 11:59 PM (23:59): Any battles may be declared and resolved.


Which converting to GMT makes it 8AM - 11PM, 11 PM - 2AM and 2AM - 8AM. I think. Not terribly convenient... *groans at prospect of getting up at 7 every day* but could be worse.
