Any new ones of these coming up with space?

If they are, I'd like to join, though it would depend on when it occurs, as my time may be otherwise occupied.

There is one currently running that is nearly finished, at least turn wise, but has had a hard time scheduling games through busy summer travel. I have thoroughly enjoyed vassal as a format for the campaign however, and would definitely be willing to hop into another.

I'd be interested in jumping into a campaign if one starts up.

Well thats 4, so I mean that's enough to get started. If the interest is real, do we want to make it a thing? Open it up to another pair? Try a 4 person? (I haven't done 4 yet) Or just hang out on the idea for a bit and wait for a better time to schedule?

Check timezones, you lot are all over the shop.

I'd be pretty interested in doing one, always seemed amazing

I have played games against all the people that have piped up so far in the evening GMT time slot.

@Ginkapo You are 100% right however that scheduling is the major concern for CC that needs to be taken into consideration. For instance, I think it is mainly Australia I truly struggle to schedule with. Love the people, but the time difference is just awkward enough.

I'm still interested, my only issue is when we intend to play it. I do not know my schedule very far in advance, but I can't ensure that I am consistently free from October on, though Saturdays and Friday nights should work OK. If time constraints are acceptable, then consider me in.

so are we one short of 6? I'm in Ireland. Where is everyone else?

By the time we start, most likely England.

Also do people have an idea of factions and anyone prepared to be captains for each side?

English Imperial

I can play evenings and mornings GMT with pretty good flexibility weekends and weekdays. Anyone have a particularly narrow window in which they can only schedule games?

I can consistently do evenings GMT, no real preference on factions, have fun ideas for both.

I will play whatever, and can also grand admiral if need be.

So we just need one more. Would slack be a good idea to help run it. I can get channels set up tonight

I don't particularly mind which side I'm on, but as I am currently playing on the Imp side IRL, I'd prefer Rebels if possible.

il be the 6th if your still looking?

Perfect thats 6

@PodRacer @GhostofNobodyInParticular @BrobaFett @Dorrin314 @Visovics

So a number of housekeeping things we need to figure out so please answers the questions below if you can.

Who wants to be grand admirals? I have never managed to play CC before so if other have experence great.

Faction preferences expressed so far

Imperial

@Visovics

Rebel

@Irishmadcat (Also how do the mods allow a username Irish _car_bomb)

@GhostofNobodyInParticular

Is there a good google docs for trackign this stuff campaign?

How do people feel about slack for co-ordination? It works on smart phones and I have group set up which can handle co-ordination of teams and overall campaign discussion?

How long do people want to allow for rounds? is 2 weeks enough?

all my knowledge is imperial, but im happy to play rebel at a push

So I ended up running a CC campaign for my FLGS. The most important thing I learned from it is we need to balance experience/skill on the 2 teams otherwise it snowballs hard.

I am not that experienced of a player, so recommend the second worst to be a rebel

Who wants to be grand admirals? I have never managed to play CC before so if other have experence great. I am running one campaign at the moment, but it is a 1v1 with 3 fleets pp, so I can't say I have much experience, but if nobody else wants to, I can try to fill that role.

Is there a good google docs for trackign this stuff campaign? @Thraug 's excel file is pretty good. There are still some bugs, and it's still wave 5, but we can improvise for the rest of the stuff. The bugs are in the fleet-trackers anyway, so we can circumnavigate that another way (probably by posting Warlords stuff). The campaign bit is the important part, and that works just fine. I suggest that if we use it the Rebel Grand Admiral updates it though, so that he can keep track of which planets are bases.

How do people feel about slack for co-ordination? It works on smart phones and I have group set up which can handle co-ordination of teams and overall campaign discussion? Never heard of it, but am willing to give it a try.

How long do people want to allow for rounds? is 2 weeks enough? Hopefully, at least for me. If I can't get a game in in two weeks, I oughtn't be playing.

Bold for my answers.

As cool as it would be to be on the same team, I know @BrobaFett and I went to worlds so we should probably be on opposite teams.
