You are eligible for BM playoffs postseason for the 2024 regular season, starting 1/1
This is the last week for signing up, let me know if you want in, by 12/31

I finished entering potential (current) seeding in the 2024 playoffs tab. Seeding currently is your rank among those who are currently eligible. Actual seeding for the playoff will be set after signup period is over.

We all have until 12/31 at end of the night (Like middle of the Pacific time, when it is 2025 for everyone in the world) to sign up.

I am very excited to see that in all 3 versions, almost all of the top players are already signed up. Although league participation is slowly waning as G40 ages, this is going to be a hot year of playoffs, I can assure you.

Man, I lost a lot of interest when I decided that Germany should just leave Normandy French. That stops USA from using the factory and makes defense much easier for the Axis. May be only one of many silly things in G40 but Balanced Mod does fix most of the other ones, like multiple plunders for taking capitals, SBR rules, propaganda bonus in Africa etc. That’s why I came up with the Parisian Rebalance but didn’t seem like anyone was interested.

@gamerman01 i have 4 games in various states of winding down. Is the deadline end of this week (dec 28th), or Dec 31 to finish and qualify?

I’m sure @gamerman01 will confirm, but I think the deadline to make the required number of games is the end of December.

I didn’t want to sign up too early as it would intimidate anyone else from joining.

I made a mistake, tagged several for BM who do not have 6 games completed. There are 12 eligible, and 7 have signed up, which is great. So there are 5 remaining, and really maybe 4 because Mr Roboto has been AWOL for a long time

So don’t drink Tuesday night, roll dice and post a result!

@simon33 You have a lot more experience than me, but I think it depends on how you play and who you’re playing, regarding Normandy. The complex and naval base can be fantastic for Germany, and in my experience it is not a given that USA will take and hold Normandy

I also have a pretty good rework of G40 that I made when I was upset that it departed from AA50 (and other earlier global versions) too much, but I needed help from others to flesh out some of the core mechanics, get in working in Triple A, and play it to fine tune. Maybe some day.

@gamerman01 please sign me up for the BM4 playoffs!
