RE: SPMBT Opponent(s) wanted - zeiss - 10-24-2007 Thesix: XXX = The game randomly assigns points. EDIT: Hrmm.. too happy with 100 posts.  The Battle Points are random but both players get the same amount. So they get the same amount to spend on arty. Air sorties can be different for the players. RE: SPMBT Opponent(s) wanted - Grumbler - 10-24-2007 I didn't know that. I thought they were close but not exact. Learn something new every day. It makes me happy. RE: SPMBT Opponent(s) wanted - Target - 10-24-2007 thx zeiss for explanation - I wasn't at forum few days RE: SPMBT Opponent(s) wanted - zeiss - 10-24-2007 It should also be noted that: (Game Guide quote) “If you leave both sides to XXX the number of points is chosen randomly by the computer for Player 1 and player 2's points will become a ratio of Player 1's expended points.” So if player 1 gets 5000 pts but only spends 4000 then player 2 will get a total of 4000. The amount of points also depends on the mission type. RE: SPMBT Opponent(s) wanted - Thesix - 10-24-2007 Thanks Zeiss :) Then, if my opponent ask me to check my arty % and I answer him giving the calculation, I give him the amount of points available to me that he didn't know. What a rookie I am
RE: SPMBT Opponent(s) wanted - Grumbler - 10-24-2007 So if I had been real nasty and only bought 1 tank, Target would have said bad things about me. Or maybe a jeep and a sniper. Meanwhile, I just found out S. Korea has troops in Kurdish Iraq. Those Turks better watch out. NOBODY messes with ROK Marines. It might make a nice little battle. Turkish assault vs Iraq, US and ROK defenders. No wonder the Turks have decide to give negotiations time. A LOOOOOOONG time. Until May, when the snow melts. RE: SPMBT Opponent(s) wanted - zeiss - 10-25-2007 Yeah Grumbler, or you could have an HQ vs. HQ battle. 200 x 200 map, objectives spread like confetti and 40 turns. I bet Target would have loved that. The ROK did well in Vietnam but I doubt they have the strength in Iraq to make a difference. Looks like the Turks have started the first phase: "Turkish planes bomb rebel positions" (AP) Turkey vs. Iraq/ROK/US would be an interesting battle.

Yep you are right I love this game style :):smoke: RE: SPMBT Opponent(s) wanted - Grumbler - 10-25-2007 zeiss Wrote:Yeah Grumbler, or you could have an HQ vs. HQ battle. 200 x 200 map, objectives spread like confetti and 40 turns. I bet Target would have loved that. The Turks have been bombing position in Iraq for the last 20 years or so. The Media just figured it out. Either that or they have an ulterior motive for bringing it to the front page now after 2+ decades. My theory is that the Turks see a chance to have the USA do their dirty work. What the media is missing is that the Kurds WANT the Turks to invade. That way they can kill them easier. Make no mistake about it, the Turkish Army has neither the weapons nor training for counter-insurgency work. The Turkish army is built to do Mechanized Warfare, not COIN. The Kurds would slaughter them in wholesale lots. They are doing it now in Turkey, it would only get worse for the Turks to go into the Kurdish zone of Iraq. The Turks know this, which is why they are running a bluff on the State department, Condi looks hot in a mini and boots, but she is clueless about some things. Meanwhile the Turkish politicians are happier then a hog in a wallow. They fear the Turkish Military above all other things. If they lose an election, then they go to work in their uncle's Quick-Stop. If the Military takes over, they get a blindfold, a cigarette and a place against the wall. So by passing a resolution to invade Iraq, they have put the military between a rock and a hard spot. Either send troops into the mountains in the winter, (think wind, snow and sub zero temperatures) without effective air support ( no JADAM's) or logistics (no roads) and watch the Kurds slaughter them, which destroys the power of the military, or show the public that the military is useless. If the military stages another coup, it will really hose the EU thingie. A win-win for the politicians, and a lose lose for the military. The Kurds know all this, which is why they are taunting the Turks. State needs to put the screws to the Turkish politicians. They do that by the time honored stick and carrot approach. Tell the politicians that if they don't negotiate with the Kurds, we will start arming the PKK. That will put the fox in the hen house. When the British split up that part of the world post WW1, it was no accident that the Kurds ended up without a nation. The Brits were scared of the Kurds. For the last few thousand years the Kurds have produced some of the best soldiers on this planet. The Romans taught them the difference between warriors and soldiers and the Kurds have never forgotten, They gave the Brits fits when they moved into the ME. So the Brits made sure there was no Kurdish nation to give them trouble in the future. That is why there is no Kurdish nation in SP.:soap: 1200 S. Korean's now, to be cut to 600 by the end of '07. They were supposed to be withdrawn by then, but the S. Koreans have voted to extend the tour. I'll bet they would send more if asked to. When the original 1500 man unit was formed, there were over 30,000 volunteers. |
