The main event this turn was the complete annihilation of DrSpike, as Spaced Cowboy, after sending in a spy to sabotage his telephone system (not that it was used in any case), dropped a full stockpile of 4 nukes on the Doc's head, wiping him out.

Meanwhile, Vlad Antlerkov was working on a secret project, and ljcvetko built the city of Peace.

Well, Spaced fufilled the prophecy of his city names in style.

Although anyone that does 2 consecutive secret projects should be the signal for everyone else to bunker

But that was a very nice move on his behalf.

Crap, I was going to bunker, and return the favour. Great round to forget to send in orders.

Btw I had a contingency order (not that it matters since the spy would counter it) but it's clear you didn't use it.

Bunker should be action by default.

The same thing happened to me in one of previous games.

I suggest we reinstate this great rule form Nuke War 1 since people can just be out of town or busy and 24 hours isn't a particularly long period.

Well at present we can specify any default action, which is more flexible if it is remembered by the GM. However that wouldn't have helped in this case anyway.

Btw (and I appreciate this is self-serving ) with the regular players with a proven history of sending orders I think some leeway should be given. I forgot (my fault), but was online at the time, so one post from GT to say "oi Spike you've got 1 hour" and the orders would have been in immediately. I know from my own personal experience of winning games where an opponent just hasn't sent in orders, it feels a hollow victory.

I agree. We do check these threads often, but can forget we sent and so miss out a round.

Sapced Cowboy was removed from the game by his own tactic this round, and Vlad Antlerkov sabotaged his attemptes to deflect incoming nukes and then unloaded a full stockpile on his head, destroying all four of his cities. Meanwhile, ljcvetko built the city of Harmony, restoring his city-count to three.

Indeed you were.

You must try and build relations, make friends and allies and such. Or keep the low profile like me. Not that it will help me now

When there are only two players left, your cities have big targets painted on them whether you like it or not.

The war ended with complete MAD today, as both of the two surviving cities were nuked twice. The few survivors are expected to die painfully of radiation poisoning over the enxt few years, leaving Earth a largely lifeless ball of rock for some curious alien species to discover and dismiss as unimportant.

The cockroaches.
