Posted: Tue Aug 09, 2005 9:41 am Post subject: Wallenstein newbie seeks gentle initiation |
|
|
I just got a new copy of Wallenstein (in German) and will be experimenting with it over the next few days
I am looking to join a game but don't want to cause too much irritation to the other players due to my lack of 'experience'
Any suggestions as to which of the available games I should join or is someone going to set-up one in the not too distant future.
Please be gentle with me. |

My recommendation is to jump in and just start playing. That's how I did it. However, keep in mind that in the PBW world a much bigger irritation than new players is inactive players. If you join a game, commit to it. Check in frequently, make your plans and moves quickly and generally don't hold up the rest of the players.
Have fun! |

Okay I'll try that, although there seem to be few games without passwords.

Yeah, that's kind of a pain. Your best bet is to start a game yourself. You'll get takers. The downside is, you don't know if they are slow or unreliable players until you get into the game and it stalls for a week or more. But the upside is, if you keep trying, you'll find a game that actually goes. (I've got six going now, only one of which I started. A couple of them are "on hiatus," but the others are moving at a reasonable pace.) |

Yes I managed to find a game that started that night
I may be in at the deep end though as two of the players are in the top 10, methinks this may be very ugly.
I will start a new game as well and hopefully find enough reliable players to complete some games.
Thanks for the advice. |
