Default Re: Noobs and Vets II: Days of Infamy. MA, BI. Game Over. Supplicants Triumph!

And so it seems that despite predictions by expert wargamers of crash-and-burn, this went off well.
People did actually join.
The drama was less than apocalyptic.
The team-play was more a plus than a minus.
The AI wasnt stupid and easily defeated.
The server was up to the task.
Direct connect didnt totally suck.
The lack of CBM didnt define end-game?
The BI mod benefited the game?

Any other predictions I missed? So all in all it seems that as a game variant this was worthwhile?
Im all for game variants. But then Im about as ancient to the game as you can get so boredom with the standard games shouldnt be surprising in my case. Its nice to see others opinions also.

I also have an automatic tendency to fight the defaults.
