Online Kriegsspiels / Re: 1807 KS -- REBOOT

I was unaware there was a poll on Discord vs. Email vs. Carrier Pigeon. Had I known, I would have strongly pushed for Discord as I think it's a great format for keeping things organized and in a manner that I can more easily contemplate on my phone while eating lunch.

Seems like we have to convince Jim once more of the advantages Discord has. 

He's doing all the hard work. I will just follow our esteemed leader down whatever misguided path he takes us.

Everyone's a comedian...

As you know, I LIKE Discord and use it regularly now.

I received strong feedback, however, from a number of players that their preferred method was e-mail.

It was also the only method that got consistent results the last time, though, in fairness, Discord was not then in play...

Damage control on Yorktown.  Good description of the hits at Coral Sea.

On a side note, Academy Games really need to give us backers some sort of timetable or roadmap regarding production & delivery.  It's clear from the comments that people are getting impatient with the lack of info in this respect, especially since fulfillment was originally supposed to have occurred back in April.

Academy has never been good about production updates for their pre-orders
