February 1948: Tally Ho!

Dr. Nick · December 10, 2003, 20:45

First and foremost, I want to congratulate our Prime Minister on his brilliant defence of the capital against evil Moslem assaults. His valuable expirience in combat will be most useful to us.

Dr. Nick · December 10, 2003, 20:46

Zion worker sent to Haderah and put under General Sadeh's command

Hagana destroyed artillery near West Jerusalem and moved to the city, handed over to the South East front.

Artillery and Zion worker sent to Ashdod, I would like our Sinai commander to go on the offensive with these units, particularly against the Egyptians.

PAY ATTENTION HERE:

I would like the machine gun in Gevaram purchased, to free up a kibbutznick to serve as road builders et cetera.

PLEASE TAKE CARE OF THE ARTILLERY THREATENING Akko!!! The Hagana in Haifa should help take care of that.

OK West Jerusalem and EinGev are my fault for not looking close enough, (That is what happens when you dont play the turn every turn)

BUT the good news is we could change those walls to an Arty unit in West Jerusalem and rush this turn.

Up to you COS.

Im not waitintg for EMU, when defense minister is up Im just going to play, he didn't even post here over the weekend.

We may want to consider another mod as well. We really need someone who is going to check the forum at least a couple times a week.

PinkyGen · December 11, 2003, 14:46

It's econ decision to buy, El Presidente.

I talked to Emu on AIM, he talked about exams. I'm surprised though that if he had time to talk to me he still didn't post here.

I agree and he did buy last turn.

BUT the Econ Minister should be prioritizing rush buys based on the needs of the COS, balanced by what we have in the bank.

If the COS doesn't think its a priority then Econ doesn't have to buy it.

WTF?! Why wasn't the Irgun purchaced in Beit Shean, like I asked?

The **** may hit the fan around Beit Shean, since SOMEONE didn't rush an Irgun there, that would've been appreciated.

A more detailed report in a thread tomorrow.

Correct.

And about the Irgun-unit, the defencive minister didn't change the production in the city, therefor I didn't rushbuy it since I'm NOT the one to change production afaik.

You said NEAR Beit Shean not in, so I looked for the nearest city that could be rush bought in, changed the production and made the recommendation that we do that.

My quote from the January Thread:

Your quote from the Defense Minister Thread:

[qoute]
For January, this is all I ask:

quote:
Important The amassing of both palesinian and Egyptian (?!!) Artillery units near Beit Shean, in the Valley sector. I urge the civilian authorities to hasten the completion of training and production of a fast, flexible, Irgun unit in the area. [/quote]

Bold is by me.

El

I want us to work togtehr, thats why Arthedain and I need you to provide a clear concise prioritiozed list for each turn, even if its only 2 or 3 "MUST HAVE" purchases.

I took "in the area" to mean any of the nearby cities and I looked an chose the nearest one with shields available so we could do an incremental rush buy.

Im not complaining here so please dont take it that way. Im just trying to reiterate the fact that we need to worik together to kick some Arab a$$!

My only goal is to give you the stuff you need to do that, you are my man in the trenches fighting the war, what you want, only tempered by our budget, is my command.

Keep up the good work, if you really need the Irgun in Beit Shear we can see what we can do about that this turn.

Az · December 12, 2003, 11:28

jeez, Why don't you look at the context?! How would an Irgun unit help me against two artillery units if I can get there? Some common sense, please, President. I guess I should stop using language that adds to the atmosphere of the game, and just post cold requests. that would be fun.

Nevermind. I am sure everything's going to be alright.

You guys are taking this the wrong way, I dont fight the war every turn, you do, all Im asking is for clear concise communication.

Try this.

Quote:

This is Azazel, over!

"If you dam bureaucrats dont get me an Irgun in Ben Sheit right NOWIm going to have Heathen Arabs hordes all over the women and children in th kibbitz there!"

Azazel, out! *Sounds of gunfire and Artillery can be heard very close in the background*

So what do you think? Colorfull, clear, concise and to the point.

And again, please dont take this wrong, Im just trying to improve our (not one single persons) communications here so we can kick some Arabs a$$!

Az · December 12, 2003, 16:44

But that would not've been realistic. We've only spotted those artillery units, and they're far from being in range of our closest town. I'd even go as far as to say that it will take them AN ENTIRE MONTH to get in range.

conmcb25 · December 12, 2003, 19:11

We obviously aren't communicating well.

Let me put it this way. If I have to understand every part of every front and be able to put context into everything you say then I guess I should just play the fronts for all of you and that would defeat the purpose of the game now wouldn't it?

I need clear concise prioritized lists.

COS, make it so!

Thanks!

PinkyGen · December 12, 2003, 20:21

"Build glorious Irgun units in Beit Shein noble leader, so that we smash our enemies!" Oh wait, something like that was done.

Be as colorful as you want, just list the city in the Defense Minister Thread of what you want. And Defense Minister needs to remember to post in Econ thread what Defense wants rushbought. We have these threads for a reason, so not everything is done off the table like it is now.

Az · December 13, 2003, 08:35

I did. I said "In the region of Beit Shean". when I refer to that area in general, I call it "the valley".

No you didn't the above statement is Vague

I was trying to be nice yesterday to obviously no effect so I will be more direct today.

Clear, concise, accurate, prioritized needs.

Simple as that.

I am not going to study the entie turn and try to figure out what you meant by the "context" of the statement.

Again if I wanted or should do that I could play the turn myself.

Lets end the debate, if you want stuff in a timely manner be clear, concise, prioritized, and accurate.

If not we will continue to have turns like last turn. Simple as that.

Make it so!

Awaiting Minister posts. Since Emu still hasn't posted, Conmcb25 is authorized to play the post for this turn.

I think it's only two turns before elections, but if Centre wishes, they can appoint someone else to the Defense Minister post.
