No takers for game?? - :P

:P

This is known as a 'rasberry'.. it's what we do in the USA to try and provoke a reaction..

There's gotta be one brave soul out there that will take this on

Maybe an assault game where the defender has more points than the attacker seems a bit odd.. not really.. on occasion intel failed to read things properly and an advance bounced out only to find the Rear Area guys had messed up big-time.. what to do? run and hide? or try and obey orders anyway??

I won't run or hide :)

Game Challenge
Hello All,

there is a 'tournament' running called 'command and conquer'.. it's open to all players (wigam, correct me if I'm wrong).. latest challenge posted is as follows:

allied attack hex 185-173 Aug 1950
Allied attack against fortified hex..

USMC unwittingly attacks into an area where North Korea has prepared to launch an attack itself..

Points: USMC 12000; North Korea: 13,000

turns: 40
Visibility: 25
map - 120H x 80W
10% artillery each

mortars up to 82mm that are part of an infantry company exempt from limits.

Game is USMC, vs North Korea Aug 1950.. WinMBT latest version

Ahh.. a nibble!

maybe I should blow rasberries more often

Hello Target,

yes, in the Tourney I am playing NATO allies.. so for this game I am USMC..

Map will be random

I have MBT slot 004 (sorry, only have the free version for now) open, but if you don't have slot 004, let me know which slot and I'll fix things up on my side.

let me know if we're go for this..

Thanks!

I'm up, I think. I got my Umbuntu system running and MBT works. Only the DL version so far, but I think the CD should do ok. So I'm ready to get back into it.

Hello Low Bidder (aka Grumbler ?? ),

Really?? !! Awesome.. I'll be glad to set things up for a 2nd battle here.. will change the hex I'm attacking from in the tourney.. will make it adjacent.. as TARGET accepted the previous thread and we've started the game..

Need to know what freebie slots you have open.. I have all but 004

will be good to play you again.. always a head scratching challenge!

All slots open. I haven't figured out how to compress files yet. It is supposed to be automatic but it isn't working like the manual says it should. Fortunately, there isn't that many possibilities so I can brute force if I don't figure it out.
Email on the way.
