Turn-by-turn battle reports? Well, get playing and posting. Graphics? What do you mean? Images can be posted in the album and links can be put in the battle report...

also the scroll bar in the chat room makes me seasick, can we fix that too please?

I will implement this sooonnn.... I have a few other projects on the table right now for the site so this will have to wait a little bit.. but not too long...

Naa, I've realised the problem. Three posts ago, before Nag replied, that post was somehow OOT. :) :oops: My bad, sorry.

I have to voice the opinion that for the real 'regulars' here, there is only so many Dark Elf things you can talk about - it is not an everlasting topic. There are only so many times you can advice a new poster to take Dark Riders before you can't be bothered anymore, only so many battle reports you can read before it gets dull and only so many discussions on Druchii politics you can have before you have heard every arguement a hundred times.

Add in the fact that many site projects and initiatives have sucked so many of our best posters away from the general boards and its no wonder the posts have got less interesting, especially with so many new members.

I advise simply coming here less often - then it will be all the more interesting when you do visit. You could also join a site initiative and help out the community with a group of like minded posters.

Yeah, the initiative members need to be active on the public boards to enhance the quality for the people not in that initiative :roll:
However, it is hard to force someone: "You need to be more active on the regular boards". especially when most of us got a limited amount of time and thus prioritixe the initiative work.
Just a side-note...

I was making an observation, Nagathi, not a criticism.

And I explained the reasons to what you observed :D
I didn't critisize you or anyone, just explaining the situation.

For graphics I was thinking the representative coloured rectangles and arrows depicting movement - very much based on the battlre reps in White Dwarf - obviously a few actual pics would be a great supplement. I've thought about it quite a bit and i reckon it could be worked so that its entirely virtual... it would take alot of setup though. Then we could setup invitation matches and do ooohh one turn a night perhaps so forum members could follow the game, make suggestions etc. For various reasons I could see GW objecting, but if we could wing it I think it would add a whole new dimension, and importance to this site.

Ah, I thought when you said 'its hard to force someone' thats what you thought I was doing, my apologies.
