I'm not underestimating myself, I just dunno what position I can take

I'm just underestimating myself when it comes to being a front commander hehe..

Well with only around 12 people active everyone will probably have something to do.

I wouldn't worry about how good you think you are at CIV II.

There will be all the rest of us to rely upon for advice.

I would play the scenario at least once in SP mode to get the feel for it. That will get your more than enough background to play.

We just need to know if you want to be a front commander and actually control some of the troops or whether you would want to be a minister and control the economy or decide what units we are going to build or just work on the news paper.

Until Pinky Knows what your preference is he really cant make sure you get into the right job.

Look at the Government thread and see what positions we decided upon and what interests you.

Then post them here. It may chage in 6 months anyway so try out a few different things to do.

I only did SP in Red Front twice and played several positions in that Demo game with no problem.

So my recommendation is to just jump in and do something and have fun!

Oh and I almost forgot:

hi,

have a nice day

Conmcb and El Awerence

Looks like we'll be having two other minister spots besides PM as well. Steve, you are in the knesset, so can only be a minister. El Awrence, you could decide to be either a minister or apply for the military (and chief of staff is still open), but I would like to know soon so I can offer the other minister spot down the list to either Arthedrain or POTUS.

(originally, a PM, but El, your mailbox is fun and I want to move on).

Dr. Nick · October 9, 2003, 13:25

My mailbox is fun? WTF? Send me an email in my sig

I'll apply for the military in this one.

PinkyGen · October 9, 2003, 14:56

K. Arthedrain, you want a post now?

El, you want just a front, or try for Chief of Staff. (So far I have not seen anybody except Kenobi, and he's not getting approved if he is only willing to use bribery).

Dr. Nick · October 9, 2003, 15:55

Hmm, I could go for Chief of Staff. I'd prefer to fight, but I will go where the party *cough* Israel will need me!

Arthedain · October 9, 2003, 16:26

I can be a minister if there's a spot to fill. I think I will wait with being a front commander.

PinkyGen · October 9, 2003, 16:27

We'll see who else applies, but if its nothing but peaceniks...

Arthedain · October 9, 2003, 16:44

How can I make the words "One Israel party" in my sig link to this thread?

What I do is this:

Before you do anything get the URL of the thread you want to link to copied. Its at the top of the web page

Go to any thread

Hit reply

in the reply there is an htpp command on the grey buttons

When you hit that reply press the htpp button.

It will ask you for the title and then the url.

Copy that, back out of reply (so you dont actually do a reply) , go to control panel and paste in your sig

I usually open a page, as if I am writing a post. Then I use the http:// button , and create a link like so

Then I copy and paste into my signature.

As for our government, here is how it's shaping up.
One Israel:
PinkyGen: PM
Conmcb25: Defense
Arthedrain: Econ.
El Awrence: Chief of Staff. El, if you really don't want it, then you can hand it over to someone provided they aren't a hippie candidate.

I believe Centre is expecting two positions on the front, I trust you to select for the other fronts besides what Centre wants.

Centre:
Stalin II: Immigration.
Emu: President.

There is a possibility that Emu and Conmcb25 may switch posts, Emu originally requested President, but it is my personal belief Defense is a more powerful position, and rather than risk letting Centre get disapointed with the arrangement, offered him Defense. Emu has yet to respond, and until he does, I assume he still wants President. If he wants Defense Minister, let him have it.

And as I said, Conmcb25 is in charge when I am vacation.

Arthedain · October 9, 2003, 16:59

Thanks both of you

edit: Never mind, I already knew the answer to that question

POTUS · October 9, 2003, 19:32

I will do anything. If El doesn't want to be chief of staff, I would willingly serve as it if no one else wants to.

Put your name in the hat to be a front commander.

Get em quick before we have to give them away to the Hippies!

Disclaimer: The above was said purely in jest! (The Hippie part)

Dr. Nick · October 9, 2003, 22:27

I'll be chief of staff... it allows me to forcibly relocate Arab labour back to our factories, correct?

It allows you to satisfy this "Strategic Intent":

I want to keep the post non-political, but the General should be willing to agree with the following concepts.

1. Support offensive action so all of our cities will be linked together, and not be seperated by Arab territory.
We need to relieve some of our far off settlements. While we should not defend these places at all costs, we should make attempts to open road routes so we can send reinforcements. Additionally, some of our larger towns in the Galilee are cut off by Arab towns.
2. Be willing to expand our defensive perimeter.
3. Maintain our control of West Jerusalem, and have a plan to allow access to the holy Old City once more by capture of East Jerusalem.
4. In addition to the above 3 reasons to capture Arab cities, be willing to capture or bribe Arab cities for the purposes of using their infrastructure to aid our economy and production.
5. Be mindful that in 5-6 turns, the British leave, and we must be prepared to resist the full fury of the Arab attack.

Obviously, this will involve coordinating with front commander, but the Chief of Staff will select front commanders, but be amendable to suggestions from above. (For example, Yaroslav has already told me he wants the Syrian front, and other people have expressed interest in the military as well).

Also note that I have left "specific" military operations out of it, I only set guidelines.

You are in charge of the specifics, along with front commanders. (And believe me, we got in a fight in Red Front over this).

So dont get to zealous, dont forget Im going to be Defense Minister in all probability.............

So if you get to out of hand then:

PinkyGen · October 14, 2003, 15:58

Well, I'm back from vacation, and as usual, Centre is being difficult.

I notice nothing has been done on a party paper.

I thought people wanted it, so we may get our message out to the party faithful and to the masses at large. Do I need to appoint somebody to head it, or can you "writers" get together to work something out.

Pap1723 · October 20, 2003, 23:50

I would like to be in One Israel if there is an opening. I've been reading this thread and it looks real interesting.

Pap

conmcb25 · October 20, 2003, 23:55

We will stay in touch and Ill let you know when we need you!

PinkyGen · October 21, 2003, 00:03

Welcome to the club. You're M1 rifle and Menachem Begin's "Guide to Arab Hunting" is in the mail.

conmcb25 · October 21, 2003, 00:43

Welcome Darius! Its about time some of conservative friends came out of the woodwork!

Dr. Nick · October 21, 2003, 10:19

Wilkommen to you all!

conmcb25 · October 21, 2003, 10:46

Hey POTUS, what is the deal between you and asaz989? How did you guys meet? What made you two join Apooy at about the same time?

Just wondering

yaroslav · October 21, 2003, 12:08

Yaro as the official "Party Hack" for One Israel, I can honestly say you are always welcome here!

We go to the same school and are practically neighbors.

I discovered this site, thought it was cool, and convinced Asa to join.

He checks in once in a while. He probably will pay more attention around the next election for Knesset.

conmcb25 · October 21, 2003, 18:47

Hey POTUS, this is actually kind of neat. I had a feeling it was something like this. And I was quite frankly dying to hear the story! Welcome both of you to Apoly!

I see you two are also in a PBEM now, so enjoy that as well. PBEM is my first love but these demo games can be fun too!

Panag · October 29, 2003, 14:51
