	End of an Era Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

It is with a heavy heart that your Marshal must inform the people of the fact that he has grown weary of the duties that he must perform to defend the Motherland. I wish to be able to withdraw at least temporarily to a dacha east of Moscow where I can study my books in peace, far from the chaotic war.



In other words, I have Final Exams coming up soon, and I won't have time to be performing the duties of Marshal. I'd like to continue up until the 25th of April, but at that time I would like to have a successor ready to step in and take my place. I've got us going, the Marshal's position isn't so hard, the main duty is delegating and supervising others.

I promise to continue leading our trops until the 25th, b then I hope we can have a replacement decided upon.


So step forward! Throw your hat in the ring! Take control and lead us to victory over Hitlers' Armies!

though I still want to retain my command of the belorussian front. ( I won't give myself the best units, truly I won't..)

My qualifications include : Played RF a lot, Have a I.T job where i'm available to actively perform my duties almost all day and my relatives also took part in this war (russian side of course) and most importantly I'm a RF dg adict that just can't want for the next turn.

I don't think it's fair to have both a command and the marshal seat, especially as there are people interested in commanding...

Yeah, but without the command, few want the Marshal role.

I mean, if only one person want to be Marshal - on the condition that he keeps his command - and there are no other volunteers, then he should be Marshal.

I think of of the experienced Front Commanders should step up to be Marshall and one person waiting in the wings should get a chance to be a Front Commander.

Or an experienced Minister should step forward, and someone should backfill.

We just had a thread asking how we could get people more involved. I believe this should be considered.

Just MHO.

* I think its the other way around, you need commanders at the front with RF experience and the marshal doesn't necessarily have to have a lot of expereince, as they can listen to the RF community and reinforce where asked/decided.

OK maybe I misunderstood, I assumed he was the ringleader and should have at least some experience with RED FRONT, but either way I have nothing against you doing both roles per se, other than it gives someone else something to do even if temporary, and helps to satisfy what I think is the goal of getting others back/ involved. But again thats just MHO

conmcb25,
I'm with you, if somebody else wants to be a front comander I think you should let him your spot, that way we'll be more players
if somebody doesn´t play his turn is the marshall who has to do it so he also needs some experience

While I appreciate the offer to take another front command, it must be noted that I just stepped down from the Murmansk front.

Sorry, but I will just post as a citizen of the glorious rodina.

I wouldn't do that if I were you. I've heard MarkG warning people in the past about mass, unasked for PM's to civgroup members.

I can continue until the end of the month if need be, but after that I have to step down for sure.

I hear you but it seems to be working. And I only sent them to people who aren't directly invovled. And it was strictly on topic.

I wont make a habit of it.

Who is going to Mod while you are gone??

If someone would like a Front command, I took over the Murmansk front due to obiwan not being able to continue.

It's a very important front, due to the convoys that have to get through (huge source of and science beakers once delivered).

If there are interested generals out there, I would step down after the current turn, as I have a lot on my plate now.

Lets make sure we get a Marshall first OLD GUY!

It looks like we have some interest in a Front Commander position.

How did we decide this will work? The Stavka selects the Marshall and then the Marshall selects the new Front Commanders? (If necessary.)

This forum hardly needs modding at all. I won't be completely gone, just unwilling to spend time playing civ2. I plan on giving poly and all computer games half an hour a day starting on the 25th until finals are done sometime around the 20th

Too many Canadians serving as Front Commanders.

What you need are a few Eurocoms mixed in with the Americans.

Look at the Off-Topic! Clearly this is the proper formula for conflict.
