Tom...friend, comrade and fellow spirit in these trying times of stress in all forms and from all quarters...know that for me, your terms are quite acceptable. I am content to await your return of game plays when you are of a mind and able to do so...that is no problem. I will know why you are absen... |

Jim..Capt..if you play the Talonsoft BG games and HAVE NOT availed yourself of the various "papers" at the War College, please check them out. I know where you are coming from and have been there...and in addition to General Barlow's advice, I would say that your game, whatever it is, will improve i... |

I just have to say, again, that though I originally despaired over being the whining jerk that started this whole string...that I do feel better about it as it clearly is, and has been a serious issue and one that clearly is shared by all but those who just want to "win;" their competitive success b... |

This has never happened before. Today, each time I tried to insert a "smiley face emoticon" or others, into a post...it would not insert where I had the cursor, but rather at the very very bitter end of the quote. Has anyone else noticed this happening? html is off, Forum Code is ON, It happens with... |

Cool! But now that my curiosity is piqued, I will waste a prodigious amount time hunting for them! I suppose it would take the fun out of it if you told us the hex coordinates. <blockquote id="quote"><font size="3" face="book antiqua" id="quote">quote:<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"><i>Originally ... |

Wow!Very interesting month...talk about being thrown unexpected curves! Curious about Item No. 8. expansion of accepted games? Does that mean adding games like some of the grand strategic ACW games out there that we have discussed in the forum from time to time? Or are we just talking about strictly... |

This is very good to hear. Nice to think that when tournaments are held that these things could be explained as simply as you put it, and Dierk puts it...thank you. I know that there are a few "papers" on MP games and I have read them. I just can't help thinking that maybe it is time for someone to ... |

Actually Dierk, I do too...in fact I now play all my games only via phased play in HPS...when I wrote that I meant that I don't see why one can not play HPS <font color="red"><font size="3">MP</font id="size3"></font id="red"> games with phased play...what a difference the lack of two letters make..... |

OK, That is it...no more...this is going nowhere...the challenge starts without Embedded Melee and we will just have to leave any dispute to the judges. Really too bad there wasn't better preliminary orientation for those, however few, that had no experience with a MP HPS games, and some meaningful ... |

I am now being told that "The Blitz" tactic or capability in Single-Phase (One Turn) play, whatever you wish to call it, has been for the most part largely corrected or minimized by John Tiller changes to the engine in his more recent issues of patches. Does anyone know if this is true? Embedded Mel... |

Thank you both. It does sound fraught with potential for dispute which in a "tournament game..a challenge" is not a comforting thought. Personally I don't see why one can not play HPS games with phased play AS YOU HAVE TO DO SO with Talonsoft BG games. Yes, turns take longer because of file transfer... |
