Za Rodinu! More grognard games for the LP forum! Only going to observe from the peanut gallery, but I like this already. I've had the VASSAL module and the printed out rulebook sitting in my desk forever, so I'm looking forward to following along and learning how to play as well.

Tevery Best, small thing, but could you include the turn and the date represented on every post? I sometimes get lost as to what date the game is already on. And does 3rd Byelorussian SHOCK ARMY have a (flavor) commander yet? My username-sake would like to claim it ...

Tevery Best posted:I think Gradenko wanted it, though, but got confused with the 3rd. If he clarifies, he gets first dibs. Oh! Oh yes, I mixed that up. I will report to the 1st Byelorussian, tovarisch

Green Wing posted:In an effort to understand this thread a little more, I checked out the rulebook at GMT games. I don't understand this at all! Units can only trace towards a city to their west as Axis, and east as USSR? Doesn't this mean every Axis unit that is to the east of a German city at the start of the game is out of supply? A unit needs to be within 4 hexes of an "overland supply source" The path traced by the 4 hexes can be of any direction An overland supply source is either the edge of the map, or a city that is within supply A city needs to be able to trace a path to the map edge to be considered within supply The path traced by the city to the map edge can be of any length, but only going westwards (from the city to the edge) for the Axis, or eastwards for the Soviets So: [Western Map Edge] --- any length path --- [City] --- 4 length path --- [Unit]

Tevery, you can't just drop a line like "won a Sudden Death on turn 6" without telling us about it! Also, with the permission of STAVKA, I would like to request permission to take command of the new Don Front

I know you've been doing it for a while now, but that faux-Cyrillic looks awesome

Omobono posted:You gotta be loving kidding me. AceRimmer posted:Or they do such a good job delaying the inevitable that a single B-29 appears above Berlin... (there was some great wargame that told you that in the ending text if you won the Bulge as the Germans IIRC) Panzer General did this: the time limit on the Washington DC scenario was essentially a race to capture the capitol before your army was nuked. The minor victory's text explains that while the Reich was able to force the Americans to an armistice, you as the player were unfortunately caught in the blast and killed. In the sequel, you have to literally capture the Oak Ridge research installation.

If only there was some good historical precedent for defecting rulers, other than The Boss at the start of MGS3. There is a game about this: http://www.rodvik.com/rodgames/STAVKA-OKH.html
