  • Colt, Matt and I have decided that you have won. Well done guys.


  • @Witt It was a pleasure. Tech luck had a lot to do with it.
    If CP gets trounced again, we should reconsider giving T a small bid. But the main problem is that G is deliberately given limited build capacity on both the western and eastern fronts.

    Who’s up for another round?

  • '20

    GG, I’ll pass on playing again


  • I am afraid I will not play again. I have too much going on at home .
    Have fun all.

  • 2024 '22 '19 '17 '15

    I will pass as well.


  • Good game guys. I’m happy to play again.


  • Thanks for the game. I will play again too.


  • @Private-Panic I’m in


  • Im up for another


  • So, at the moment it is FM, VF, dawg, entek and myself.

    Not witt, elrood, nor colt.

    No doubt we can make this work with 5 players, but does anyone want to involve someone else?


  • @Private-Panic I’ll ask cpt. walker


  • @dawgoneit seems a shame that 3 of the top players or top players dropped out,


  • I propose a fix to NML to make it less defensive oriented. HGs were offensive artillery designed to destroy reinforced bunkers, not defend them. The game gives them great defensive power, but no more offensive power than FGs. Also, G starts with only 3 homeland ICs, none of which are anywhere near the western or eastern fronts. CP is thus forced to build fast moving gas and cav to take Paris by G5 or G6, before F/GB outbuild G.
    Massive artillery barrages were the primary cause of death, with both sides firing hundreds of thousands of shells per multi-day battle. Gas, dependent on unreliable wind, which can’t be controlled or accurately forecast was not a decisive factor in any major WWI battle. Cav were a non-factor.
    Thus, this game while interesting, is historically inaccurate in certain areas.
    I propose that no HGs be built. Keep starting HGs and their existing power number. No HG tech, if HG tech is rolled, player selects bunkers or propaganda.
    No gas or cav land offense tech to discourage buying them. That leaves only barrage FG tech, giving 100% chance of obtaining artillery tech, rather than 1/3 chance. Player would edit tech received.
    Gas: Attacking player must use forum dice roll prior to combat move phase, to determine if gas can be used in combat that turn. Roll a 1 or 2 allows use of gas. Place a limit on amount of gas per battle.
    This will greatly reduce Paris defense power but not hit points. G will have greater chance of early FG tech, but limit units that can reach Paris quickly. G may need bid of starting game with IC build in Wurt (reduce starting income by 20 PU?).
    Other changes could be made that would require changes to the program code, such as giving HG greater attack power that would be used against trenches, not troops, like a bombardment.
    This proposal could be implemented fairly simply. The old adjustment of giving industry tech to T, was too narrow and didn’t address the underlying issues relevant to the other players.
    What do you think? Shall we try it in the new game?
