I find it's usually easier and more rewarding to try and plan a time for games. Click my links for details. :)
 
I hooked up with kami who seems like a nice guy. We started one game with another guy taking UK, US, Japan in 41. UK had latency probs and crashed out. Kami and I continued but then the Chinese overran 24 of his planes and torched them, which put a damper on things. Then we rehosted to put AI back in charge of UK. Then a bunch more guys showed up so we started again with 5 - USSR, Japan, Australia, China, USA - a real Pacific War. This didn't get too far before the host (me ) had a CTD. I didn't have a save and it was getting late for me so I ducked out then. There were lots of other players in the HoI channel at that time though (Saturday evening, US time) - about 20 players at peak. It was entertaining watching the chatter. There was one guy plaintively calling for a 1.04 game but he was told "1.04 is sooo 2 months ago". :)

Ya they torched 24 planes, I fought them in a province and they retreated a 0 strength div to a province I already owned, which is not sposed to happen I thought. So my planes died and then I watched the div disapear, I didnt think it was reatreating to that province so I didnt move planes :(
 
Tragic.

Well there's been talk about having planes retreat differently, something like half retreat, and a quarter each die and are captured. Or something like that. Might be interesting to see take place, maybe. :)
