<![CDATA[Looking for players for Total World War]]>Hello,

I am looking for players to make a play by forum or email game of Total World War. I would like to have every country played by a different player, if possible, meaning I would need up to six others. I am interested in playing as Italy. If you are interested, I guess say something here, I don't really know how it works to be honest.

I got tired of playing with bots (which are just unable to work with such a complex map) and want to enjoy this map to its fullest

It would be interesting if they came up with some kind of algorithm based on how battles actually went so it wouldn't be necessary to choose. Anyway, do you want to start the game then?

As for the losses, I would be willing to leave mine up to your discretion in most cases since I may not always be available when you want to do your turn, but I could make sure to do my turn at a time that works for you. If its not clear, maybe you could send an email or something?

Also I've read the strategy guide that redrum posted and I've already played the game several times vs AI to see how it works, so I think I'm ready to give it a go.

Essentially you know the order you want to take casualties at the beginning of the battle. There are a few rare instances that you want to go round by round as it depends on how many hits each player gets to what casualties you'd select (happens more often in dice as LL has less variation). Most people either just post/email back and forth or jump into the lobby to run the battles.

The sides are pretty even in v3.0.0.4 for experienced players (I personally think Axis might still have a slight advantage but some would disagree with me). For newer players, Allies are probably a bit easier as they mostly just have to defend where Axis need to play aggressively in the early rounds but depends on your style as UK is very challenging to play on the Allied side.

Either way I suggest new players read the game notes about 5 times and read this strategy guide a few times: https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/661/total-world-war-strategy-guide

Also watching some TWW games in the lobby or looking through some of the PBF save games can be very helpful.

Since you have to choose twice each combat round and can't go back if you mess it in the middle of combat, I don't get how people do it, unless like no competitivity.

Unless of course you have apreference either way. 🙂

regarding battle phases i think it may not be that hard since i work for myself from home im around a lot of the time.

Which one would you want to be?

I have never played against other people which is why I thought it would be good to be Italy. But you're probably right about starting with 1v1. Is this the way to find someone then, make a post in the play by forum section?

Thanks again, I have been asking a lot of questions lately and you all are pretty helpful.

Also, it will probably be easier to find a 1 on 1 game first where each person players all of the nations on each side. I think there are a group of TWW players that would like to try a team game but I think we'd want to make sure the teams are somewhat balanced.

A team TWW has been discussed a few times including this thread: https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/635/looking-for-pbem-players-for-tww-2-8-0-3
