    So will players be shown on the map by their unit names?

    Unfortunately, I think I need to withdraw. I can't count on being able to make it to a computer regularly during this next week.

    Intelligence Officer reporting for duty, sir! I notice you've got 47 people in the sign up list, and 48 is such a nice number divisible by three. If you need someone to round out the list to a multiple of 3, feel free to include me, otherwise someone else can have my spot first.

    I also provide the gift of a spreadsheet. Each day will be a new sheet.

    I'm going to close things before any more of you leave. PMs will go out shortly, opening narration goes up sometime tomorrow afternoon. Send questions and equipment selections to me. If my inbox is full, send them to Ardor and Robothero.

    Did you move Aldo up from his reserve spot? That makes a player list of 49, which is decidedly not divisible by 3. Will this be a problem? And if so, I don't mind getting moved back down to reserve to maintain the game balance.

    Also, this is a preemptive request for everyone to send me ALL their information once the game starts. I have a plan.

    Don't worry, everything works out. Actually your joining meant I didn't have to flub one regiment.

    Okay, cool. Hope I wasn't being too forward with my concern. Well, we'll see how it goes then. Should be interesting. As I told cj iwakura yesterday, my main concern is the size of the map. It might be possible for the baddies to run out the clock if the separation between batallions and regiments is too much at the end.

    Mass Reveals have been quite the problem in recent games, huh? But it is important for someone to gather as much information as possible to coordinate players. Perhaps the commanders in the bunkers will have fuller info, but for those of us on the field, I think it's a good idea to know where everyone is to develop a good gameplan. And information gathered in this way will help out the good guys more than the bad, I'd say. Keeps everyone honest about their intentions.

    That's why I'm doing this preemptively, before roles are doled out. Whether good or bad, I pledge to report all information I am given as it was given to me. Of course, if I do otherwise, I will be in a spot of trouble. Having more of this information out there will also make the game more interesting and give people more to talk about.

    Qorzm I nearly succeeded in my plan to make a bunch of SEers think your name was spelled Qqorzm.


    Munkus asked, and I was so close, but I guess he used his mod powers to check and be sure I guess.



    Drat.

    I'll get you Qqorzm. Unless you are on my team. PM me? I think I have special powers but I am not sure so I would like to check them with you.

    My question wasn't answered :(. How does attacking work in this game. Are unit names shown on the map? Or are player names shown? If neither, how do you aim your attacks? Like, do you do !Aimed Shot Bob and hope that Bob is in range?
