Did Ted quit the forums? His personal text makes it seem like he did

I'm trying to make the game big where every battle will have an effect, but I don't want these battles to be a mess with 200 000 men on each side where it's so difficult to keep everything organized, but that's what WW2 battles were like! I'm starting to think if I should make it like Duuring's old napoleonic forum game (if anyone remembers that).

Start what? I'm still working on this and still trying to figure out which style of game would be the best. You really didn't help me to decide.

[Stark99]

Do something like say each player is a commander of certain army groups. So heres a example Operation Barbarossa (Example: Army Group North, Center and south for Axis. And North,Northwest, West,Southwest and south front for Soviets.) Each of the Army Groups are commanded by a player. If we did individual armies that would be too hard to manage and we would need too much people.

Would you guys be interested in Operation Overlord, the past few days after D-Day?

I'd really enjoy that actually.

Would love to be the UK forces .

I'm almost done writing the units, now I just need a good map.

Idk if we're really going to do this, maybe we could try out that alternate-world BoP.

[Lawrence]

We need to get a structured WWII game, maybe not a BoP but something more rule based and organized.... So one of you get this up please.

Like a tabletop wargame?

Invasion of Poland, I think that would be a really good starting point. The start of the war, the units are all organized, and we can play straight away. Creating characters too, maybe?

[Lawrence]

I don't like the whole character things. We should have generals leading an army and fighting each other and also dealing with industry, recruiting more units, and dealing with political issues such as allies ect.

Well, maybes not create our characters, but roleplay as fictional characters from the time. And I like the sound of that.
