Looking for apponent - Volker - 04-21-2012 Good day. Looking for an apponent to have a mid to large game of MBT. 1975 Germans vs Russians. Other things can be negotiated. Thanks, Volker RE: Looking for apponent - burroughs - 04-21-2012 G'day mate. I actually thought that my SP days are over for good,but after a relatively long hiatus and on reading Your post it set me thinking about my first PBEM custom game against my mentor and a a vet here, John the low_bidder who enabled me to command a brigade sized Soviet task force in Germany back in good ol' 75 and I got a little nostalgic, thinking how I won a marginal victory then.Talk to You about the details tommorow if we both still feel like, alright? Should that be the latest version of the game? I have no experience of that at all.Ought to be a refreshing run. Could be fun, however I think I'd prefer a medium sized setup.. RE: Looking for apponent - Volker - 04-21-2012 Good day. Sounds good I will send you a e-mail. RE: Looking for apponent - burroughs - 04-22-2012 Alright Volker, I really wouldn't like to keep you waiting so here's what I have just gathered; Found the old game directory, updated the installation, loaded the map sent etc. In April '75 35.ooo points enabled me to assemble a complete Soviet combined brigade combat team full with organic support units, recon elements,tanks and APCs of varied sorts and still had a little under 20 000 points left.I am affraid that would mean ending up commanding an entire division, even if a (-) one - that's much more than I could be possibly able and want to handle. It's just too tedious and cumbersome albeit an ambitious endeavour I must admit. It's just I think I might be overwhelmed with the task even if that was my only PBEM and with the sheer number - not mentioning the scale - of my commitments I can't offer the ammount of time and effort and then - a turn rate necessary -to make it work on the most basic level. I recalled that SP needs lots of house rules to be agreed beforehand - proportion of elite troops, ATGMs, availability of ammo resupply, the use of area fire, composition of the subnits and units to make it kind of a realistic attempt at a tactical study and not a science fiction encounter where fiction prevails over the science etc. I am affraid I must pass it on to somebody else ready to commit more. Good luck. RE: Looking for apponent - Volker - 04-22-2012 Hi. Thanks for the response. I know it is a little large but thought it might be fun. I'm hoping there are still some takers for a game. Thanks, Volker RE: Looking for apponent - Starfighter - 06-15-2012 I'm interested on this scenario: are you still available to play?

I'm going to have to decline just for the fact I have to many commitments right now and I'm having a hard time keeping up with them. So if you could give me a little time we could possibly give er a go. Thanks, Volker
