Thank you!

Agree with Hubbfrosch. Do not forget to factor in AA units (both friendly and hostile) Unlike aircraft, AA will inflict a fixed amount of damage and so can be more more effective in delivering a killing blow. That said, if trying to conserve your fighters it may be better to first weaken the enemy w...

Have been trying to hold Karis' Hitlerite horde for three months now and enjoying immensely (exc: the gazillion Luftwaffe air strikes I have to endure each turn) One seeming bug is that while the Poles get some RPs (+800 after I held Leningrad) they don't ever seem to get CPs nor can reconstitute lo...

Has it really been four months since the last one?

This is the greatest drawback for OOB IMO. AI has made strides but there is still nothing like going up against one of the top-ranked humanoids either 1:1 or 2:2. Alas almost all the PBEM scenarios are designed by other players (Erik's scenarios are among the best!)

I noticed a couple of your new scenarios in the Community Crate. Coincidence I am sure

Any update on when there will be another tournament?

If a non-tournament game times out are ratings adjusted and if so how...

once again congratulations AdmiralYamamoto I really hate you

Netballman, I'll have to investigate this further, do you remember how many turns you'd played and what your score was before we nerfed you?

Thanks Oleksandr! Can't wait to play!

Totally agree--95% of my OOB time has been in MP which is way more challenging. (when the AI starts to actually play well I may begin to actually believe all the hype around AI) It is unfortunate that the campaigns are only against the AI...really wish there were MP versions. :-\ My opponent doesn't...

My affection for OOB is undiminished even as I must admit I am looking forward to dating HQS WWII when she finally makes an appearance. I have been largely consumed with a couple very intense games games of Market-Garden with the Admiral including helping Erik playtest an updated 2v2 version. Then t...

Excellent observation. Erik has several fun 2v2 that may only need their turns and Victory Conditions adjusted…

Also still hoping for 2v2 team tournament…

Muddy fields would be perfect and a very different game

Despite their warts open tournaments are probably the best way to recruit new players. Also still hoping for 2v2 team tournament… Celeborn: There is no foolproof solution to what is essentially the problem of human folly but I think invitational tournaments are the only reliable way to minimize thes...

In May I went to a 4 day week (despite a 20% cut);and it was absolutely worth it. Barring financial problems I will likely drop another 20% in the Spring. :-) I understand now rth. Yes, I review the map very carefully and plan out a lot of things before I move a single unit. I am working on going to...

So my first round opponent was a no-show. It is not the first time it has happened and it will not be the last. I know it is also frustrating when you don't get a chance to finish, esp if about to take an HQ at the end. There is no foolproof solution to what is essentially the problem of human folly...

Who made that decision?

Anyway really hope it gets fixed as the MP mod scenarios are pretty much all I play outside of tournaments :-\

I love that idea. I don't want to do anything to jeopardize the historical flavor but just want some modest ability to customize. The ability to repurchase lost units would also address the problem I had in a recently concluded game where the Luftwaffe units were wiped out around turn 30 and so all ...

Have been meaning for some time to solicit thoughts on the use of a fixed OB vice allowing some degree of purchasing/deploying units. What reminded me to ask was my review yesterday of German "special abilities" in M-G 1v1 where I again noticed that a couple of them were only meaningful if...

good catch...all you needed to do was look at the previous photo of the nearly identical US 57mm
