It will probably take 4 or 5 turns before our first engagement.


Wanna bet? ;)

FINALLY found this thread!

I tell ya. Matrix Games should pay banana and Daddog some commission on this game.
Ya, I am trying to get a couple of friends hooked also. Skernsk has it now and we have been playing phone tag. Also started the Coral Sea with brady. :) Have two "Green Hell" scenarios with banana and cup. Those are about 4 months long.  Cup cut off my head and stuck it on a pole. I should have kicked him out of my squad.  banana and I had a good one going. Pretty much trading blows, but then something when wrong and we had to end it.  Here is one screen shot when I caught 4 of bananas DD's with some CA's and DD's of mine.


Here is another when I was doing the Coral Sea vs Cup. Port Morseby was READY. Yet he never touched it. Just went around and captured every base BUT PM! :eek:


If anyone here wants to go a round let me know. I will do another short one. :)

Time is the biggest factor for me. The large scenarios take me a couple of hours for one turn. Once you are set up you can crank one out in 30 minutes, but it takes me a bit longer. Coral Sea the small scenario after the setup I can do a turn in about 15 minutes.

FYI, play banana when he is tired. ;)

Hey daddog.  :)

I've been recommending it too...should have a few guys playing soon.  One is a for sure.  He is the guy I used to play that WW2 Battles of The South Pacific game with via modem.  When I told him about it and how similar it was he immediately started to recall highlights of former games....especially the ones he was particularly tricky and successful in.  ;)  He wanted me to confirm how cool UV is before he purchased.  I'm e-mailing him tonight.

banana, did you get my turn?  Hope everything is okay with the family.  Colds?  Flu?

I looked for it last night but I had a long hard day yesterday and sacked-out quite early.  I have both files now.

Combat?  What stinking combat?  :)  You must be bombing my bases.  That's not very friendly of you.:p

Let me see if I have this right banana.


You're in a game of Uncommon Valour rightnow with Curval.
You're in the Grand Prix Legends leauge which races every Tuesday.
You're in a Diplomacy match with me and 4 other guys.
You're doing the BF 1942 thing with the Johnsons squad.
You're getting up to speed in CMBB and you should be ready for a match with SunKing in a week.
And of course, Aces High.


Did I leave anything out? :)

Yes, I'm also in a Diplomacy game with the Warbirds boys over at AGW.

I'm also in two other UV PBEM games, with Daddog and Cup from my squad.

I know it sounds like a lot, but all the diplomacy stuff I can do at work while my scripts run, and all my UV moves happen late at night after the family is asleep.

I get Tuesday(GPL League) and Friday(Johnsons, AH) nights to play computer during "Prime time". The rest of the week I'm a family man.

And no, I have no idea how I'm going to squeeze in CMBB with Sunking. But I'll do it somehow. :)  

I'm just starting to get my gaming life back after being totally focused on raising a little boy. Now that he's four, I've already got him playing his own computer games on his own PC.

He is playing a game of UV with me.
Squad night every Friday.
Squad training Saturday night (dive bombing).
He calls me from work to explain what I am doing wrong in UV.
He works during the week.
Some where in there he has time for his wife and son. ;)
