Hello.
I was thinking about creation simple turn-based game in addition to the Dangerous Waters. Something like the Solomos 2015 Campaign
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=186525
(in fact, we have now 2015), but much much simpler.
First draw of the rules:
1. Player can join in any time.
2. Player gets some credits at start. He can buy oil rigs, mine, and any platform available in DW.
3. To earn a credit, player must deliver oil (or other goods) to some place.
4. If more than one player units will be in the same place, a DW game will be created.
Any thoughts? Any eager to play?

Sounds interesting. I will watch how this develops.

Oh, I thought you meant missions developed for multiplayer that could be played cooperatively and carry over previous mission results, analogous to the Red Storm Rising campaign.

This sounds interesting, for sure. I don't know if it's exactly my cup of tea, though.

Not exactly. I know (based on past experiences) how hard is to organize meeting with more than two players. So i decided to create a web-based game (in first stage even forum-based). In each turn players will send a PM with orders (ie 'move convoy X to grid Y', or 'buy a FFG with one helo'). Look at picture:

DW game will be created only if in the same turn units of more than one player will be in the same grid (ie International waters).
Of course player1 can move own units to the player2 grid, so buying some defense equipment is very important.

If there will be more interested people ready to play, ill try to create a web application that will help to manage units and turns. I think there is also possible to create a DW game host with automatically generated scenario.

I'd love to play in DW multi-play. Send me an invite.

This actually looks really cool. Games of this could be quite lengthy!
