        @Ondis id be down but im really new to TWW and have never played CW. one concern i have about playing TWW by email is order of losses. the order of loses decisions ive found to be much complicated in this game than other variations of TA usually i pick my order of loses based on whether or not i think the attacker wants to finish the fight or is just looking to strafe me a bit.

          @ubernaut Yeah, TWW requires asking for scramble/OOL fairly often. Though given that each turn tends to be much longer than most other maps, you get used to it. Mostly just need players that can check their email a few times a day and give a quick response to OOL/scramble when needed. If you wanted it to go faster, you could agree to some OOL standards.

            @redrum not sure there's any hard and fast rule that could describe my OOL strategy in this game i often need to think about it quite a bit. i almost feel like combat phases should be done online or something.

            Anyway im down to try it out @Ondis if you still want to set up a game. 🙂

              Hey guys so this is the save, I'd Think Wirkey is ok with it for the same reason as I am; namely we already posted part of the game elsewhere. EA901459-825A-4569-B488-4F03902D92B6.tsvg Dunno why it's this name, I dont have civil war/the saves atm on this computer so if its corrupted ask Wirkey. But I Think it should work. It's the same size.

              @Ubernaut and Redrum

              I'd be up to play both, feel free to start the games and I'll continue.
              my email is tripleapbem@protonmail.com

                @Ondis Ok. Which side do you prefer and what settings would you like? Also do you mind trying PBF or do you prefer PBEM?

                    Nono we're playing CIvil war, you and me can play TWW Uber. Im not a total newb but its been years since i Played that map

                    @Redrum, well I want to try some Yankies this time if ok.

                    Basically same rules I guess if you're fine with it:
                    You can Blitz with any unit that can move 2 tiles through friendly neutrals,
                    no bombardment of more units than unloading,
                    you can drop units in friendly neutrals on same turn using Railways but no other,
                    Upgrades and purchases of ships Count as the same´towards purchase limits.

                    Tell me if u have some others ud like to consider or if u want these changed

                        Im online now for a while, But like I'm pretty slow on TWW like, Its also changed a lot since last time so its better we even start in PBEM maybe.

                          @Ondis my concern is regarding OOL not sure how we will do that without a ton of back and forth. what time zone are you in? in PST (GMT-8) i work for myself so im pretty flexible. 🙂

                            Oh right. Well I'm online now for a few hours if you want.
                            i'm pretty flexible too, so write a couple of times here that you can be on and I'll pick one, otherwise i'm usually on (if im on) at about 19-23 CET.

                              @Ondis Ok, seems like standard rules except limiting bombardment by number of units. I'll look to set it up in the next few days. Haven't played CW in a while so first turn will take me a little bit of time.

                                @Ondis ok lets try to coordinate once we actually get to a battle phase. 🙂

                                not really sure about bidding for this map so maybe you should start. also still trying to understand all the math on this map so i kinda prefer dice at this point. but the other options i dont have particularly strong feelings about.

                                            I can't handle 3 people lol ^^ WIrkey could probably start vs Redrum as well and we can see how the games develop differently ^^
