Thread: Over the Trenches Officer's Mess

    To myself
    I'm Sorry Dave, I hurried up.
    But I really think there is a place for Brambo. I can help him rolling for casualties (for example) if that can be of help and he could also be kindly asked to fill the sheet of his pilots to help you.

    I object in principle - there must be a limit - I'd like to be consulted first before anyone is told to 'fill their boots' - that way anarchy lies; if we all invited someone that way I'd be running 20+ pilot sheets by the end of the week, though most of them would drop out after a few games like last time !

    Having said that, we have vacancies now & I think Trev has proven his commitment by wading into the original campaign so I'd welcome him to the fold.

    Trev - you can be Hun or Tommy - pick a side & PM me six names of scout pilots, two names of Two-seater pilots & two names of observers, I will assign your enemy pilots. Fast.Git & Lloydthegamer have been withdrawn from the game for their own reasons & I won't allow use of their personal pilots just in case they want to return - doubtful though that may be now - but their opponents are replacements & fair game !

    How you go about this I can't say - if you want to start from mission 1, have time and can blast through quickly to catch up go for it, if you want to start with mission 7 or 8 that's fine too and may be easier for you - just let me know which !!
    Ok the horse has stopped.

    First off, sorry Dave, I didn't know who was running the show and my enthusiasm got the better of me. I appreciate your comments and understand your reasoning.
    I would like to play on the Hun side please.
    I have found out you play one mission a month, so I would like to start on Mission 1 and play catch up. Hopefully I should have caught up by the end of October, or sooner depending on work and SWMBO, hope this is acceptable. There are two reasons for this: 1. It will allow me to develop my pilots and learn how things are done. 2. Show commitment.
    I will PM you the names as requested.

    Thanks again Dave

    No worries Trev - you accepted invitations made & no blame attributed !
    Huns it is - already prepped the sheet - funny that !
    Would love you to play catch up for the same reasons so goggles down and get in there - just please write the Butchers Tally as per the rules !!

    As it's been said before, I can be of help with after combat dice rolling, Trev. :thumbs up:
    Good luck on your missions.

    I feel that I must shoulder the responsibility for the mix up. I came in part way through the stampede, and assumed, rather than checking that Flash had initiated the new member. We all know what assume does. It makes an ass out of U and me.
    I should have checked more fully.
    Sorry Dave, I should have headed the stampede off at the pass.

    Thanks Andy - keep up the die rolls but leave the sheets to me please - Trevs pilots & crew are on the roster !

    Thanks Rob - It's Pauls campaign rather than mine as he set the ball rolling but we do need to communicate on things like this before giving an OK.

    Thanks Andy, not sure how that bit works yet, I take it I post the AAR with butchers tally and then you roll the dice for crashes and such like?

    You notice I tried to stop them Dave, since I'm such a good boy.

    Whew! Tall order, I look forward to seeing your missions. You're obviously very committed. Lucky for me, I've already BEEN committed...

    Welcome again, fellow Eagle.

    Apologies to all fellow mess members (Dave, Trev, Andy, Rob et al)I stand on the silly stool with undies suitably draped over head waiting for the jolly old mess pranging game (I will try not to fall off the stool at the first wobble...although I admit to feeling a little tiddly). By the way Sqn Ldr whats the mess record?

    Fill up chaps time to fly solo.....

    Just heard today that my PC died on the table - after much investigation they finally tracked its issues to the mother board - it's Donald - so I will be having to fork out for something new - hope nothing else breaks (Compter/car/kettle in last few weeks). If I go dark at any time it will be 'cos my son has taken his laptop back & I haven't got the new machine yet !

    Hello my fellow OTT players.

    I will be posting the next mission either tomorrow evening or on Wednesday. I have a few things I want to finalize, and then we'll be ready to go.

    Cheers,
    Eric
