Hi, Tankzu newish BA player here reporting for duty Sir!!

Formed 26th February 2011, BA Battalion NPU (New Players Unite)

.. where new players can ask questions and discuss BA from a new players perspective, without fear of sounding foolish!

To start with, I have no idea what the rankings represent, my forum title currently says:

Battlefield Academy
Games Played: 86

Does this mean turns played or actual games? As a guess/estimate I can only have played about 20 games to date maximum. Could someone please explain?

The rankings list (not looked for a while as I have to scroll through lots of pages to find my list entry, maybe there's an easier way?)
.. what does it all mean, again could someone please explain for us newish NPU players. Thanks!

Rank 863 Tankzu 16, 10, 7 (B P W)

My suggestion, how about us newish BA recruits registering our names and between us issuing multiplayer challenges or starting a 'BA NPU' league?

Any other ideas, comments or suggestions?

Games played it pretty much just how many times you have started up the game .

The stats pages could do with some love definitely, but there is always so much cool stuff we want to do.

It's a great idea to throw up some challenges - I'll add the ability for a short tagline to the todo list, then we could mark them for beginners etc.

Welcome to the fight!

Cheers

Thanks for the information and the welcome to the fight Pip!

I am looking forward to the 'cool new stuff' in future.

A short tagline is a good idea, having the option to mark them for beginners, so long as it's still possible to take on an 'unknown' opponent who has left the tagline empty. Wouldn't want to end up being limited to challenges we could accept due to them being for 'experienced players only, no beginners' etc.
