Generally, I've found the AI dumb. But then my games against the AI have been limited and restricted to major battles. They were also many years ago.

Apologies, I thought I'd completed the survey. My location isn't listed on the map so evidently, I didn't complete it! For those who want to know, I live in Hobart, Tasmania, located in the southern half of that suggestively shaped island at the bottom right hand corner of Australia. Incidentally, t... |

Walt, I think the proposal for a Recruitment Officer has great merit. However, I'd like to think the first term should be experimental, with continuance based on the success or otherwise of the position. I favour the 2nd OBD Points option (nothing like enlightened self interest as an incentive!). Go... |

Sir, I have all HPS/JT ACW games except Franklin.
Are you interested in a short, medium or long game and do you have a favourite?

Thankfully it wasn't too bad this time. The horse has been returned, complete with a new blanket (how kind). Back on track and trying to catch up on game turns.
If you don't hear from me in a week and I owe you a turn, please contact me!
kind regards to all... |

To all who are playing with or against me and who are under my command, my horse has gone lame! I'm taking him to the Vet for a health check. This may take some time. My laptop, with all of my game on it, has gone "blank". It turns on, the buttons light up, but I can't see or hear anything... |

Gentlemen, I have attached a diagram of what a Mk I Eyeball can see at distance. It was given to me some time ago during a similar online conversation (I think with Al Amos). (Apologies, Al, if I got that wrong.) Moving troops can be seen a bit further, but only because of their moving or the dust t... |
