The Sandman: Jun 23, 2013; Okay!

So, I've, like, designed a really sweet attack plan that I'm calling Attack Plan Ded Moroz, like "Deadmau5!"

WUB!

Right, Hard Choice time.

Participation has dropped off, as I feared it would, and Its becoming to much of a strain on me. So I think I'm going to call this. Whe it gets more of a chore to do something than fun, its time to call a halt. I have one more turn to post that I ran this morning, but that will be the last one.

I think I went to big - trying to get as many people in as possible - and we've broken the game. To much artillery. Also, as worried, Defence is not that interesting.

That said, the format works great - I just need to be moving less tokens and rolling less dice! If you'll all join me in the observer thread, I'll talk there more about plans.

I'd just like to apollogise to those who didn't get to do much, but I hope you've enjoyed yourselves. I think we have proved that WWI generals didn't have it easy! Blackadder has a lot to blame for cementing the image of the top brass being fools who didn't care about the casualties - we've shown that the pressures of attacking can lead to the best laid plans falling apart!

Thanks for giving us the chance to make Conrad and Cadorna look competent. I'd like to think we took to the task with gusto. I'll be waiting eagerly for whatever you do next.

But lo he could not. For the angel was hitting him with his own hands

Shame it had to end this way (in multiple senses of the term), but yeah, it was good of you to try and figure out what the hell all of us nitwits wanted you to do based on vague MS Paint scribblings for as long as you did.

SpaceViking: Sep 2, 2011; Who put the stars in the sky? Coyote will say he did it himself, and it is not a lie.

Thanks for running Grey. It was ambitious, but you gave it hell.

Thanks for the attempt, Grey. It was a huge pain to keep organized on our end, and must have been even more so for you. I'm looking forward to whatever you do in the future.

There was a terrible noise.
There was a terrible silence.

Thanks for the fun game!

Wrong thread, I think.

My little commanders, thank you so much for your contributions! It's pretty clear we won, even if the allies dispute that (and 1915 was a bit of a mess), but know you walk away on the winning side :smug:

thank you grey, i'm sure you'll use the lessons learned to put together something better - or you'll just sit on your rear end and relax, as you so very richly deserve
