Blitz dropping SP?

[low_bidder]

Yes, the actual real world battles were too big to simulate in SP anyway. Plus the downside of using entry deployment is you have to 'stack' the incoming units on the entry hex for a turn. That gets tedious quickly. I try to keep the unit count under 200 just for my sanity. If this woreks as evisioned (ha ha) there will be little overhead. Mostly changing entry hexes for a new battle. I will need a "Leaderboard" of some sort. Still thinking about that. IIRC, Air Master is a golfer.. Golfers use leaderboards so I hope to pick his brain.
As far as players, After 20+ years of SP:PBEM I have quite the list of E-mail addresses. Part of the overhead will be contacting those players to see if they are still playing. It would be nice to have an inspirational "Rally 'round the Flag" boys message, which would fly faster coming from an authority figure such as yourself.
I will contact Wilfur to see if he is still willing to help with maps. We did that before and are good at picking up what the other fella missed. Nothing ticks me off more then running down a road and then BAM, you hit an invisible building and get m-killed.
I will look into opening an E-mail box to store everything in.
This sort of Tourney will work better with half a dozen players. That way everybody plays 5 battles.
I have already started some of the prep work and will start contacting players on a contingent basis.
After all, the secondary purpose is to increase traffic here.
