This is from the core series on players association:

-No gold (theory) tech trades- ever.
-One Silver tech trade (Jan) to any country. (Neutral or in alliance)
-Three additional silver tech trades quarterly (Apr, Jul, Oct). to alliance members or puppet nations.
-No nuclear weapons research.
-No expeditionary forces to neutrals.
-No attacking from neutrals.
-Play semi-historical but realistic at least. (Ex: As Germany please don't invade Brazil)
-War in Europe will begin with Danzing Event.
-Monroe Doctrine in effect: Any invasion or alliance with a country in the Western Hemisphere by Axis or Comintern changes USA WE=100.
-At any time you total number of land divisions may not be made of more than 30% armor and mech.
-Amphibious invasions can be conducted by only LEG units, meaning infantry/mountain/militia/marine.
-Max of 20 escorts per Convoy.
-You cannot send resources or technology to neutral nations - Allies can't send Rubber to Russia, Japan can't send coal and steel to Germany e.t.c. This can only be done once you have a common enemy - Germany is at war with the Comintern and Allies.
-You may only have 48 division stacks when attacking or defending.
-For every 3IC in Research you must have 1 in Production. The reverse is not true.
-You may only have basic fighters built before the General War.
-Capitals that are surronded must be taken within one month. If the player whose capital is surronded chooses to abandon it by disbanding units or by some other method it must be taken immedialty.(Please... just don't surrond capitals)
-Only CAGs (Carrier Air Groups), light fighters and close support planes(dive bombers) may be placed on aircraft carriers.
No exploits!

What do you guys reckon about incorporating some of these or discuss them before we do?
Basically similiar to what we already do but I like the tech trades. What do you guys reckon?
 
Im thoroughly impressed you guys are still a "releativily" cohesive group :) . You know what might help you recruit one or two more players, general time frames (though I know you tend to decide next sessions - in game). Haven't played HOI for an age (work, EUII) but might be interested for one or two games pending your general times. Pity the nations left though, i've never been a great mp Italy fan, UK aint bad but well we'll all see when you guys get back to me.

Omni weaseled back in eh :cool: nice.

Core?

That tech sharing rule sounds good. I vote yes to include it.

Hey Kshar, if you want to play you can. Just remeber none of those exploits ok.

Majorball, I think we should in-corporate those tech rules.


Kshar - Yeah, we are using CORE 0.83, and usually start at 8:30pm nightly, sometimes we skip a few days. Can you join?


When you planning on starting this game (date)? and I'd be more able if it was a tad earlier. If the US or SU player aren't set on their nations I wouldn't mind switching but if they're intent ill take another state.

Ya getting 30 more ic for 2 months sounds terrible :p . Trust me that was a rush motive (and minor compared to other individuals records), nonetheless point taken. You guys playing tonight??
If so im not sure if I can make it, but lookout for me, if im not there at time then start without me, if i'm there you'll know.
 
Omni said:
OK cool, hope to see you there :)


PS Exploited only 30 ic for two months? Noob :p

Seem so ... yet in fact I upped my ic only to finish a few panzer divs earlier so that I could have a reasonable Eastern campaign before leaving home for 4 months (only had time for 1 more session). Suffice to say that war never happened anyhow. See you tonight maybe :( .
 
So how did the game go last night? If your still planning on continuing this one, i'd be willing to have a go as the UK, however I will need some compensation for missing over a year, sa to what that might be im still open.
 
Hi K'shar. Yes we played were up to about mid 1937. Were not playing again until Tuesday 9.00pm for a few hours. Sorry about the time but i have to work, we play a few times during the week but more towards then end of the week and weekend. As for compensation, well have a look at what techs they have and see if we can give you a few to make up the difference.

Cya then.
 
Well lets wait and see. If the AI isnt even doing some basic air techs or naval techs that human player would normal do, then i think UK should be compensated, but maybe the AI is doing those techs.
 
maybe we can snag another player to take over Italy as well..is Anus around ? :) If you are mate try 9.00pm Tuesday if not anyone else that wants to have a go. Maybe Nolan would like to have Italy....well lets wait and see

2 players is preferable.

If that dont work and we should finish as we started then include kshar next game.

Also just a reminder about tech trades....we pause the game every quarter, Jan , April, July, Oct

*Silver trades only

*Jan---- 1 tech trade to any player

*April,July,Oct---- 1 tech trade to a puppet or someone in your alliance or at war against the same country.

That should help keep all the countries withing their correct Tech limits rather then open tech trading which unbalances the game significantly.
 
Omni said:
The UK had equal air techs as me, by the ledger charts.

Maybe, but the only reason I mention it is that either way if I had been around for last session (of which I actually was) the UK would be better prepared come war and thats definite so .... seems to make sense. Tuesday all, but I hope at 8:00 not nine :( .
 
Sorry chaps ill have to bail tonight, I have a mind-rending migraine and coupled with the hours you guys play I wont be able to participate :( . Sorry for the inconvenience but as I haven't joined yet it shouldnt be so disrupting.
