    • Realistic WW2 Game Invite

      You are invited to play 1939 Call of War games with us. This post is in the Role Playing section as it is frequented by players that are involved and care about realism, for the 1939 start game.

      GOALS & RULES:
      1. REALISTIC WW2 PLAY.
      2. CORRECT & FAIR SIDES.
      3. SERIOUSNESS.
      4. CORRECT ALLIANCES.
      5. NO CHEESE!
      6. APPROPRIATE START.
      7. PERMANANCY.
      8. ADVICE/ SHARING/ TEACHING.

      EXPLANATION OF GOALS & RULES:
      1. REALISTIC WW2 PLAY. Not an exact recreation of WW2, but following realistic possibilities from the 1939 start onwards.
      -The ALLIES or Neutrals may not attack Neutrals unless to defend them from the AXIS or Soviets.
      -Germany & the Soviets are initially allied.
      -The U.S.A. is initially a Neutral and a strict Isolationist.
      -Italy starts as a Neutral.
      -France may not attack Germany proper until after the Phony War on day 18 (18th ‘turn’ as per the research chart day).
      2. CORRECT ALLIANCES & COUNTRY SPECIFICS.
      -ALLIES: U.K. + France. France & U.K are allied and should immediately share maps.
      -AXIS: Initially Germany. Italy and Yugoslavia will join later.
      -USSR. The Soviets were involved in the Spanish Civil War. Sweden may defend Finland and not be at war with the ALLIES, Spain may send volunteers to Russia and not be at war with the ALLIES. Before the start of the game the Soviets and the Germans will have an agreement (Molotov-Ribbentrop) over the division of Poland and the Baltic States. Afterwards the Soviets and the Germans are officially allied. The Soviets are an eventual ALLIED side player. Enemies: Historically Finland (possibly Romania & Turkey?). Attacking Sweden, Norway, Bulgaria, etc., would make them an ENEMY of the ALLIES.
      -U.S.A. U.S. becomes ALLIED turn 22 (turns as via the research chart- actually Dec.7, 1941), then may land troops at 06:00 game time turn 22 (3 month ocean voyage to eastern hemisphere). The U.S. is restricted to pre-war navy of 1 active battleship and 3 mothballed/ inactive battleships.
      -Italy. Italy is a Neutral in 1939. The western ALLIES may not declare war on Italy unless Italy declares war on Greece, Portugal or Poland.
      -Yugoslavia Neutral and is substituted for AXIS Romania. There are 1,224,691 Romanian soldiers that are strangely absent from CoW. If the Soviets declare war that activates Yugoslavia as an AXIS player, otherwise Yugo is activated 1 game day after Germany AXIS attacks Russia.
      -Pro-AXIS Spain. Activated upon the capture of Egypt, Levant & Cyprus (not counting Malta) & there is a CLEAR AXIS vs the British- talk to the game moderator.
      -Pro-AXIS Turkey. May not attack any countries until activated. Activated upon the capture of ALL capture of British territory in Egypt, Levant and Cyprus. The Turkish owned Bosporus is CLOSED to all traffic!
      -Strictly neutral Sweden.
      -Vichy France. If set-up by the AXIS, a set amount of the French forces, (called ‘Vichy’ France) will become an AXIS ally (a German Protectorate). The western ALLIES may attack the ‘neutral’ Vichy France.
      For specifics, message the game moderator.
      -Portugal is an ALLIED member. Any attacks upon them is an attack on the ALLIES.
      3. SERIOUSNESS. Sadly, players often quit CoW. Hopefully players here will remain in games because they’ll show serious intent. Indicate your interest in reply posts or message me in CoW. We will post the countries taken and available for the next game in reply post here below.
      4. FAIR. These games should be low gold usage games. Some people WILL spend gold, however most are not here to win just by outspending others.
      5. NO CHEESE! Acceptable ‘right of ways’ in our games are:
      AXIS- Finland, Sweden (limited), Romania, Slovakia, Hungary and Bulgaria (not Spain).
      ALLIES- Belgium, Holland, Norway, Portugal, Denmark, Finland (ALLIES for defense vs. Russia ONLY).
      6. APPROPRIATE START:
      -U.K. can immediately take Canada (1.6 million citizens in military on the ALLIED side), Iceland upon fall of Copenhagen.
      -U.S.A. may take Cuba asap (an ALLIED member in 1941).
      -AXIS can attack & run Slovakia & Hungary (3 full armies by the war’s end) at the beginning. Both Slovakia & Hungary and troops produced there enter the war 1 day (5 months) after Germany invades the Soviet Union..
      7. PERMANANCY. We are trying to create a base of players that will have fun from game to game. We’re trying to get a core of nice, ‘normal,’ serious players to play CoW with.
      8. ADVICE/ SHARING/ TEACHING. We will always be glad to share CoW game advice, share our (limited) knowledge of game mechanics, and teach basic strategies to help create a fair & balanced gaming environment.

      Rules:
      -No rockets. Rockets were a terror weapon and are very over-valued in most games. They did miniscule industrial damage & virtually no troops were killed by them. Researching them for jets is ok.
      -The only countries that are allowed to use nuclear weapons is the U.S.A. and Germany (others 1952 & 1953). -No nukes at enemies that are engaged in combat (collateral damage).
      -No Nuclear subs or BBs. These are cold war era weapons (estimated 1950+).
      -No personal insults please. Hatred of, and comments about one’s enemy is ok.
      -Please don’t curse in the Newspaper.
      -Player’s using dirty usernames will not be allowed.

      REMINDERS:
      -You will be very welcome to our games. We will treat you with respect and honor.
      -If you are defeated and if the victor desires that arrangement, you may continue the game as a conquered minor. Details to be arranged by the conqueror at that point.
      - WE WILL RESTART a new game if players do not show up, drop are uncooperative or under very strange circumstances.
      -If a player wishes to surrender please make it clear in the Newspaper.
      Please message me for next-game start times and a password. All games will be 10 player, free choice, 1939 games titled ‘AXIS vs ALLIES.’

      And yes, mr. pizza, the U.S. may lend lease. If you're in a historical mode you might want to look up the destroyer gifting date & the actual (1941) approved lend lease and the historic limits (17% of military spending to start with). We thought that most American players wouldn't want to give away a large portion of their war weapons & materials.

      Note that much discussion was given to create a game for us to play within the realistic framework of what could have happened during WW2, retaining personal choices.
