Okay guys I still need OOBs for both the minor Chinese States who should use between 10 and 15 pts and for Japan who gets a full 20pts.

Right now we're still in January-February game time. Next Saturday Midnight, central time, United States of America, we will move into March-April time and you will get a build session using your IPs.

If there are any new players who wish to come in between now and Sunday night, PM Charon, as I'll be flying over to Oklahoma.

Hrm? I thought that the "build session" started in January?

It'd be January-May-September wouldn't it?

Hrm, as for Japan, I imagine they're much like Pacifica save that their CT would only be 3 or so.

Neo Mongolia's pretty much done, apart from fleet deployments - thanks for reminding me.

Since there are players who've failed to post OrBats, am I allowed to make a bit of a change to mine? Not adding anything, really....

What fleet you don't have a coast?

My thought is you can add in ship names, history and what not to your hearts content, but unless someone was late in adding in their OOB is directly affecting you... No. You're done.

If anyone wants to make a case that's so, we can discuss it over PM.

Also guys, those of you with unfinished OOBs, waiting til midnight Saturday is gonna deeply annoy me. I'll be feeling you're taking advantage of my trusting nature. Don't do that.

Good point. Is there anything else you want done on it?

Say, is it a sign of obsessive-compulsive behavior that I modified my data post again just to change the typo of "Humboldtburt" into the appropriate "Humboldtburg"? :mrgreen:

Sorry, I had work and some things recently (not much of an excuse I know considering how much time I really have) but since I still have to set deployment schedule, for the record I was just putting it off rather than waiting in response to others. Basically, for the army I will have the majority of troops deployed in Afghanistan, along the Vasan border, and in the east in the Burma/Siam region. My active fleet will be divided roughly in half for both major bodies of water we need to patrol. I will have a more detailed write up on the deployment in the morning.

Considering I don't have my deployments set up either, I won't throw rocks at you AcNut.

I meant to put up my deployments on Friday, but got sidetracked by recounting the history of my Legions. I will do so now.

Basic deployment schedule is now up along with a few fortifications. If more is required I will fill it out more.

Deployments done. I've pretty much got all the Full Info stuff done unless you want me to add the Dramatis Personae list to the post.

Now can we get this game going? Dealing with SDNW3 as a mod is threatening to drive me nuts.

The IC thread is up already. Perfectly timed to catch me at a point where I've not got a decent idea for a first post, naturally. I'll do one tomorrow, and finish off my deployments when I've not just come back from the third Christmas party in three days and am a bit more coherent. :razz:

Got my first up already, but I'm not sure what I'll do for my second, especially as I don't think time progression has started. Also, we're limited to 6 posts a week, though whether that's action posts or would include non-action story posts I'm not sure.

Ben, you've paid cruiser point costs for your battleships.

Ben, Cat is right, you underpaid for two Battleship squadrons.

Gentlemen, I remind you if you have not posted yet, you are required to do so by midnight Saturday.

Also, naval upgrades (save for double-costed battleship upgrades) must list the chosen negative. The escorts do not list a chosen negative for the upgrade.

Leave it to Steve to devote most of a post to lesbians. I'm going to have to retaliate a future date with the extra-marital highjinks of one Prince Feliks Yusupov.

You can blame Marina. After years of incessant "pr0nmeister" remarks in the AIM chat I finally decided to just give in and live up to the rep. :razz:

It has occurred to me that it was stupid to not include a cavalry unit in my OOB. I could have even made it the same size as an Armored Corps and not had to fiddle around with the numbers.

Too bad I didn't think of that before the deadline. I guess it's Plan B: make it the very first thing I buy, then once it's bought pretend it always existed and that my 15th Armoured Corps is the new unit. Would take 8-12 months to finish, but oh well.

Alright, I stilll need Japan and the Chinese states. If I don't get Japan I'm toying with giving the Japanese Empire in total over to Spain and redoing it's OOB. That'll mean rewriting some of my history but I'm okay with that. No Hadri I don't care how unrealistic it is. In short someone (*cough*HavocCharonMarcoaLonestarCatSlacker*cough*) do Japan or else.

If I have to do Chinese states they're going to be aimed at everyone but me. I do mean aimed.

That said, enjoy your Holidays everyone.

I'll do Japan. 20 points for Japan instead of the standard NPC 15 right?
