Re: Ghost Rating Challenge 09/23

If there will be a next round, I would be happy to play :) You guys also mentioned Discord, so if you ever consider a live press game there, drop me a PM. Tried that only twice so far, but would be great pleasure to share such a game with this board. Josef IV I've never done live press, how does th...

Re: Ghost Rating Challenge 09/23

Russian impressions of G1, second part. Spring 1904: after the turkish build in CON, I send long press to England, partly due to upswing in emotion, partly to secure my northern border. I also immediately start a discussion with Italy about turning against Turkey, which I am for the first time absol...

Re: Ghost Rating Challenge 09/23

Hi everyone, sorry to be late with my contribution. As there were several AARs already, and those did capture the spirit of the game quite well, I will be much more brief than the other guys and do this more in "color commentary" style from the russian perspective of things. 1901: I am open to all o...

Re: Ghost Rating Challenge 09/23

The bottom line is that maybe Russia just deserves the credit for fixing things on both his northern and southern front simultaneously. I could not agree more, Yonni! Russia was very good, and honestly it was a solid testament to his game. I've always struggled playing as Russia, and he taught me a...

Re: Ghost Rating Challenge 09/23

I know someone else asked for 72 hour turns. Is that cool? Because that would be Fonzie!
I'm fine with anything that is at minimum 24 hours per turn.
I wrote that 72 hrs main phase would be greatly appreciated, but I can manage 48 if others prefer. However, 24 is really low for me.

Re: Ghost Rating Challenge 09/23

Hi all, I will be travelling (work related) from 4th to 9th September, so if the game I end up in could start on the 10th, I would really appreciate that. In a worst case scenario I can play en route, but it would be complicated.

Re: Ghost Rating Challenge 09/23

Hi all, I am also signing in! As for the phase length, 48hrs is fine, but if 72 hrs would be possible, that would be much better for me (job, kids, weekends, ... you know what I mean) ;) G1 4. VI 15.

Re: Blitz Press - Regularly Scheduled Games Here!

Any chance of a blitz game today? Something like 8 or 9 p.m. british time would work for me. Never tried this format before, but I have a free evening so might be worth a shot :)

Re: War, what is it good for?

I fully agree with Octavious here, Russian claims about the invasion are insane like always. Remeber Crymea - several days into that invasion, Russia was neglecting its army was involved, although things were so obvious to everyone... Now they are lying again - that is just a show for their own popu...

Re: How to break a stalemate line

There are guesses around MOS and WAR, so you could get both if you are lucky - its not a stalemate line there. But that only gets you to 17. You would then have to rely on the bots making a silly mistake with Spain. Just support holding it would prevent your solo with no problem, but the orders they...
