PBEM - WW II - sid level against japan-AI

[sabrewolf]

5 games of this scenario? ... doesn't it ever get boring?

i agree that a human player can do a hell lot more as japan. for example, one main idea of the game was that japan can play the first turn and totally destroy pearl harbour. now i don't know what losses redboy suffered, but i doubt pearl harbour was weakened very much...

but 13 turns VP-victory? and i was thinking of giving japan sid-level bonuses (cheaper production, more unit support) while the others play "normal"

we need to get a grip over personal feelings about the past, it is only another game of civ after all.

true. i never had problems playing the nazis in wargames or terrorists in counterstrike. after all, it's just a game.
but some relatives of mine (i'm part bosnian) react very very aggressive or nervous to anything that has to do with serbs during the war time. although this was only 9 years ago and WW2 is 60 years over, i still can understand paddy...

smellymummy, does that mean you'll accept the challenge?

@ smelly

Yes I too understand Paddy's feelings and I know it is very personal to him. I am not suggesting he is wrong, just that we need to remember to respect the player of the Japs as just that : a player!

No one would volunteer if he she thought they were to be treated with contempt

[ChrisiusMaximus]

saying that though Ill still call them the filthy Japs

[smellymummy]

nah, that was just a song

although I wouldn't mind getting into another game, and if you need someone to play as jap, please invite me

[smellymummy]

and allow me to stay clear of the whole nation vs nation personal conflicts, unless we're playing then I can be a filthy racist pig... and it would be okay, right?

[sabrewolf]

as long as the thread isn't closed because of what you say, i don't really mind

where's the save now?

And the good old hall of fame thingy

It says my name but this is an allied win, it just went over the VP win on my turn is all.

Its been a good game but as we know the AI is a bit of a let down.

If they had oil on their home islands would things be different ?

Im sending the save ahead to sabrewolf anyway as I would like to play on for a few more turns and see how fast we can finish the Japs off in. I will accept others wishes to stop though if that be the case

[sabrewolf]

sweet

so netherlands will go into the history books as the nation that captured 2 whole islands!!! and participated in about... uhm... let's say... 3000 VPs of the total 40'000

so, do you guys want to rest now after this game or do you want a restart with human as japan?

[ChrisiusMaximus]

Personally Id like to play this one out first, as in wipe out Jap totally to see how fast it can be done, but Ill go with the herd and start fresh when everyone is up for it
