I agree with your tag about doodle, whats wrong with GMT, you just go to google and ask for a conversion to your time zone. Its always worked for me. But yeah, just click on the day and times you can play.

Ready to defend.

Conditional tag please.

Hey, anyone heard from Tanoskywalker about if he is coming to help me attack? I sent him a PM, but no word.

I'm in Ho Chi Minh but the doodle always think me live in Phnom Penh in Cambodia. Wait maybe I'm live in Phnom Penh but I don't know about that!

Well, I guess that instead of letting you input your city and country, they give you a predetermined city in the same time zone. Like Doodle only lets me to pick New York City, US, where as I really live about an hour away from Philadelphia, US. So Doodle could use a serious rethinking at times.

It generalizes your timezone. I don't know why. It always links me to New York but I live there anyway.

Muhahaha I stick all the choices again.
Bring in Sommar or Dabadman if Tano won't show up!

Alright, since the defenders (Dan88 and his bud) are available on Saturday at the latest time, that is when the battle will be. Any conflict or a change by an hour, I will need to be notified by tomorrow.

Okay

Iam here! Dont know when though?

Hey JH is not free in saturday, we should choose another time?

I'm available at 1

What do you mean 1? You mean 1 PM in your country?

I looked at doodle, I saw 2 dates:
Sat, 10 pm GMT+7 (3 pm GMT+0)
Sun, 3 am GMT+7 (8 pm GMT+0)

Which time we will have a match? Or another date that I don't know? ???
I must know so I can know which time I can go to bed :P

Get it together, guys. Sommarkatze never posted on the doodle.  ???

I hope this game happens.

Didnt know we had a doodle link! I wasent suppost to play in this match in the first place after all.

Not going to be able to make it today, due to things involving my family. That said, I am also going to be leaving the tournament, mainly out of scheduling problems. I wish the axis the best of luck to winning. But I can't keep up with the tournament.

I see. Thanks anyway :> Somebody that could take Panzers place for todays match?

Well... 3 AM and I see this, so it means I can go to bed to sleep more?

I guess so..

Here and ready to fight

Maybe u guys could 1v1. Sommar vs JH

Okay, let JH fight. I need to know his skill.

This should be logged as Axis attack fails to materialise and as such Soviet ground holds.  And Dan88 if anyone is going to 1vs1 it will be you my friend.

err... what? Don't worry JH just play,  we don't shoot you for losing and this is conditional match, it means we won't likely lost this sector even we lose. And provide 2 replays after this (or 1, you fight the 1st match and I take care the rest).

Why? Sommar is here. You are here. The others had to leave. So just fight it out. Its conditional anyways.

I know Sommar is here, but there should be something in place to stop attacks/defenses from failing to gather all their men and yet still being able to attack/defend and possibly capture/hold the area.  I just don't see it as fair to the side who does show up.  And yeah I guess we can each do one Dan

Well I dont even know what happened to Tano. He went AWOL. And Panzer quit. So its not really Sommar's fault.

Exactly, not his fault and not his attack to deal with.  I just view it as weakening the whole penalty box idea on the site, sure a guy gets tossed in the box but thanks to being allowed 1vs1 his buddy still takes/defends the territory.  Not a big deal at all, however if an attack or defense entirely collapses and doesn't happen that's a good deterrent to just saying fuck it and not showing up. 

Is Sommar coming online?

Just want to make sure, does the Axis guys still want to attack this sector? (At least for fun)

PS: nevermind  :P

It looks like he left. IDK if he will be back. You could try to PM him but I don't think he'll be back tbh. People really need to stay on longer, not just for like 2 min

Alright, so if you guys want to fight now, I will be getting online. I apologize for not being here earlier.

game name: battle for sector 36 password: boss in-game name: Panzer4life2 (PE)

Alright, so Its apparent that I just plain suck, as this counts the 4th consecutive defeat. I am seriously quitting the tournament. But anyway, here are the replays of the games.

Wait, just because you lost? Just stay and have fun, win or lose doesn't matter, really. Killar, Yauz, GLD raped me all the time. :P
BTW, here come a bonus of me and Panzer4life:

You only get better with practice :P , and you are a pretty good player, like Dann88 said just have fun and learn from your mistakes.......PS please don't leave the tournament the axis need u ;)

Dude just cause you lose alot doesnt mean you should quit. If anything the losing streak should tell you that you need practice so you DONT have this losing streak. The losing streak wont stop if u leave but it will if u simply practice.

Panzer, you can enact the Bushido Seppuku on yourself when we have the replacements.  Right now, you are denied an honorable suicide because we can't afford it.  :P  Wait for the Allies to drop their nukes on Berlin first.

Alright, that was pretty damn good Yauz, and yeah, but I need the next round (round 10) to seriously practice like mad. Also, can anyone explain why I lost to Dan88 as Soviets, I outnumbered his PGs 3 to 1 easily in the mid-game.

I will look at it later for you mate. Keep this thread open Crani.

Done deal. I haven't locked anything quite yet.

Double ketty start is pretty fail IMO unless you are pretty good with ketty pushing. It leaves you at a disadvantage combat-wise and you will lose too many engagements. Lost engagements means lost men and squads which costs far too much reinforce. Really, you're shooting yourself in the foot as soon as the game starts. In response to Sniper starts, you need 4 man squads ASAP. If you already have Marders, JP4s aren't really necessary. Try a doctrine other than TD as well. Luft can be very handy for Wirbels, which are sort of unique in what they offer PE. JP4s and Hetzers have their role taken already in quite a few PE vehicles but mobile suppression is not found in the PE arsenal and can be very effective against the Sov blobs. Especially in the game you teched T3, Wirbels would've been more useful.

Not to mention, Dann practices all the time and challenges himself to get better. You can see a marked improvement because he is often playing (losing) with people higher level than himself but learns you new tricks in every game. It is especially good to learn tech paths and counters by playing someone better than yourself.

One of these days I need to see a replay on how to effectively counter snipers :P. So challenging to pull off >_<

I find watching high level replays also improves your skill. ;)

I dont know if I can play that 1vs1 . Saturday was the last possible day for me. Also Iam going to sea for a week or longer today. Thats why I wanted out of the tournement before. I dont really have time for it except some rare moments in the middle of the weeks or such when nobody else can make it ;C

Should I lock this, then?

Does Tano get the sin bin?
