We have a mixed bunch from Beex and UGVM, so i'll be posting the results in both locations.

Rules:
All games must be played on Server UK2
We are playing standard Dark Extermination games.
Each round is best of three.
Ideally the Home player (player on the left side of the fixture) will start the games, but feel free to work it out yourselves

Results to be posted in this thread or in the UGVM thread when each round is complete, and i'd like to know how many games were won and lost, along with the overall result.
It would also be nice if you posted the game numbers up for each game too, then we can all watch the carnage

So what's a Dark Extermination game then?

analagous to team deathmatch cf objective based games. The 'Dark' signifies only line of sight knowledge of your opponents' men.

I should probably play a single player game or two.

Ready when ever you are Mr Grim... just send the challenge

Meh, Trooper pwned me

I was hiding like a little girl by the end of it.

Score so far...

Trooper 1 - 0 ChopleyTurnip
Game 47849

Oooh, upload games if possible people. I'm terrible at this game, but loving it, and would love to see it play out.

If you go to the search box and type in the game number, you can watch the games there

I'll upload all the games from my rounds to youtube though, and it would be cool if others could do the same...

2-0

Game 41906

I'll upload them to youtube

Yes, I'd really like to relive the misery, over and over again

Methinks I need more practice at this game.

I find watching games i've lost, the best way to learn!

Ouch not the face!

I think I managed to get just the wrong combination of reckless abandon and scaredy running away.

Is there anything rocket guys can do against machine gunners and shotgunners when there's no scenery nearby to blow up?

Nope! A good tactic against a rocket dude is just to stay in open ground.

Also, in the first game you took some predictable routes, for example your second shotgunner to die, I saw him pass the first door, so on my next round I estimated where you were and when you were likely to appear, and made sure that when you passed in front of my second shotgunner he had paused his charge and was standing still and aiming in your direction...

Right, am I missing something, I can't seem to find any ofthose people on the list, is it a case of the first time I want to challenge/befriend them, they have to be online at the same time?

Letter case is important, and so is the server you are on. But other than that there are no restrictions...

The list at the start of the post should be correct, the fixture list website likes to add in capitalisation at random. So use that list on server UK2, go to the friends button at the top and add from there

I've sent a challenge to Rodafowa and submitted my first turn.

Can't seem to find stefcha to add as a friend though - within the game I mean, not on Steam.

He is on server UK1 at the moment, he should pick up this thread or the one in UGVM during the week and logon to UK2 hopefully!

Well, I got three emails two hours ago of you challenging me, so I reckon it worked.

Will log on to start the game this afternoon.

I've not even played it once yet, so expect an easy victory!!!

I'd at least play through the tutorial first.

TBH the UI is a little bit fiddly and it's not always immediately apparent what your little dudes are going to be doing when and how.

In this regard I think Naked War's crystal-clear 'numbered action stages' did work better.

Okay - game 50030.

Sorry, computer-related hilarity over the weekend. FS is installed on my wife's laptop now so prepare to receive PAIN*.

* - victory.

How we doing people? Any results to post?

We've played one turn each so far.

My game is waiting on me. I'll take it tonight (probably).

erm i am working away from home again for a few nights now, so may not be able to respond to that turn until Friday, but then again i may be able to get FS working on a really old PC if i am lucky...obviously when you win that will be the reason

No worries. I lucked out on the start anyway.

I was pissing myself laughing with that imba start from me

I forgot who ran the IT department here - your go!

It's swung heavily in your favor

bah! levelled off due to my awesome gibbonry, your go. need to leave in 30 mins so if you can't its no big matter

Christ, I got lucky there. I was um-ing and ah-ing over forcing my machine-gun dude right into cover.

Your go!

your up, not sure where your ninja machine gunner has gone to though.....

I saw yours, but too late. Draw!

Youtubing now, then I'll start another one.

gg, may just get a turn or two in before i really have to get going

I can see this one being a draw too

wow, that was a very nothing game, too few turns imo. Sorry Grim... feel like i was playing boring defensive then, thought i had more time to slowly creep up on ya.

shall we try to get the last one knocked out quickly? or do you have work to do?

Bloody Hell, I could have sworn I had killed one of your guys.

I really should pay more attention

I don't know if we need a next one - is that 1-0 to you, or 2-1?

erm 1-0 to me at the mo, so you could draw it

Okay. I'll set the next game up shortly.

righto

I'm confused about why I lost the last game, actually.



Anyway - game 3 on!

yeh, odd we both lost a guy, maybe i just played with more style

haha, game 3 went very well though. woot!

gg Mr G look forward to duelling with you again

What the fuck happened there? I think my shotgun guy needs his eyes tested

2-1 to you, then!

Since Grim... didn't post up our last epic match, I realy think he needs to invest in some contact lens for his shot gunners


Round 3 SG vs Grim...


So final Results for SG vs Grim... is 2 - 0 with one draw, yay me

erm the 3 game codes were - 50030, 51805 and 51811. Just in case you needed em for anything

Cheers

That raises a question, does a draw count as a 1 - 1 or a 0 - 0? I think it should be a 0 - 0 score, so your score ends up as 2 - 0 rather than 3 - 1...

Well, I say it raises a question, I guess what i'm saying is a statement, as it's my bloody league So draws count as 0 - 0 for the purposes of totting up scores.

So, basically, if you get a draw then you replay until someone has won two games, right?
