WWII:Poland [Quenched]

by **Yeager** on Tue Nov 23, 2010 8:35 am

Thought the wording regarding airplanes and tanks was a bit confusing, cost me a few armies but I learned. Besides that, I think it is a good map. Nice dynamics, looks good, and strong theme. I had a fun time playing it.

Thanks for making it.

Amazing map. By far my favorite (and best) on CC. I was wondering, though, now with the XML update involving losing conditions, would it make sense to include the condition that if a player only holds planes they are eliminated? Its not a big deal (like I said, I love this map either way), but it would save a turn or two at the end of games. It would also prevent people who have no chance of winning from attacking other players randomly (or in retribution).

I know the map is quenched and in general I would be hesitant from changing anything on such a good map, but this seems to be the type of map that the new losing condition was made for.

This would also prevent holding players hostage.

Is BOB wrong on this map? It's showing as the territs you listed bombard the territs I listed.

Mine is showing it correctly, I think.
Though the graphic only shows that the planes can bombard them, I guess because it wouldn't be possible to have both the graphic of "can attack" and "bombarded by" on the same terit?

BOB gets confused with territories that can be attacked but that bombard back. I noticed it on Kings Court - perhaps the BOB chaps could add another indicator (perhaps in inverted L shape?)

--suggestion being carried over to the tech forum ;-)

When Germany invaded Poland the USA was neutral, and it would be two long years before the Americans entered the war leaving Great Britain to do it alone.

Great Britain lost its Empire to defend Europe while America became a super power. Also I seriously doubt Germany would have lost the war were it not for the USSR attacking it from the East after the Germans broke the pact.

hey Ruben....Great Britain lost its empire defending Europe??? Doubtful...UK lost its empire because they over extended themselves over centuries. How dare you infer that America won its superiority at the expense of UK's chivalrous and suicidal defense of an entire continent. The USA bailed Europe out of WWI during many bloody battles. USA wanted no more of their boys to die. We had little reason to enter a second war coming out of a drepression and WWI so recent in memory.

When attacked in the Pacific during WWII, America fought not only a two front war, but also in two hemispheres. USA gained its superiority not by the good fortune of the UK busying herself in battle, but by the hard work, dedication, and pure tenacity of its greatest generation.

WWII POLAND is by far my favorite map but there is a major flaw concerning the lone aircraft.

If a player is reduced to only aircraft, it's impossible to win but you have the option to attack whoever you have an angst against, stir trouble or waste time by not taking your turn.

I suggest that if a player is reduced to only aircraft, said aircraft should be transformed to neutral.

Since we generally don't delete posts, I've MERGED the duplicate OPs. OP is welcome to delete one of them.

That said, this is a proper inquiry for the Foundry and Codierose has provided the link to that.

Can a mod with permissions in the Foundry, please merge this to the WWII Poland thread?

False.

You can win if there were nukes
You can win if it was Assassin
You can win if it is a team game
You can win if they deadbeat
etc.

THIS

with the addition if it is a teamgame with spoils and you are autokilled wouldnt code give the troops to next in line as well as spoils.. potential for abuse there..

just try not to piss people off and there wil be no problem as it is now

It can't be merged while it's in this forum, because they don't have permission. If you move the thread over there, I'm sure you could at least bug nole.

10-4. Thanks chap. MOVED over to Foundry Discussions, awaiting MERGE with WWII Poland thread.

by **nolefan5311** on Tue Oct 02, 2012 8:05 pm

Merged with the WWII Poland map thread.

As other posters have mentioned, there are numerous ways the game can end if a player is "stuck" on an airplane.

Hi, could you please look at 12619183? I deployed and never had the option to attack, only reinforce. I deployed on a territory that was capable of attacking. By the way, it did not happen in earlier turns and I'm as certain as I can be that I did not end assaults. Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately it is a really foggy game so I can't see it. Can you please post an screen capture image?
