Hawkdawg Test Forum

I'm not sure anybody wants to get so serious as to, say, start a Hawkdawg foundation with a board of directors to oversee the website, or start a transferrable business to own the rights to the domain name and host, or whatever else may be involved. Though I'm sure you're right in the long run, for ...

Actually going along with the science theme of better locos vs track engineering, I'd go with -25% track maintenance and -60% bridge building, I like the encouragement to go a bit out of the way to avoid grades and expensive bumpy track. Checking my 1932 save, that would have been a cumulative $1M s...

Certainly, after running through the game once, it presents deep challenges for those so inclined, to win in 1938, to win in 1937, to win in 1936??? 1935?!?!? I can see many ways to tighten my play up significantly, and also now familiar with the events, which is fair play on 2nd plays, I say, lol! ...

Hrrmmm?? I'm just playing on my vanilla 1.05 install AFAIK, but in the editor I get the option to add the P2... Did I forget about modifying the install when downloading a map that requested me to add some loco files?

I played on default 1.05, so Class 500 is not fuel efficient, not appealing to pax, and not reliable. For folks playing on default 1.05, it's P8 all the way, and I think the P2 would add a possibly useful tool to the mix. It's fast, but thirsty, yet not entirely unreliable, expensive to purchase and...

Gave Latvian Republic v2 a spin, maybe 6 hours over the past two days. Gold on Expert in March 1939. First try was rail only, didn't get more than 4 years in before starting over with industry. Placed 3 lumber mills in the first couple years, then in the next few years issued massive bond debt to ex...

I just want to say thank you Gumboots! I'm prone to disappearing for months or years at a time, so I wouldn't be a reliable steward, but lemme know if you ever need any help with hawkdawg down the road. And no, it doesn't need to be urgent, I was really thinking long term. I know I'm going to be com...

Just let me know where to send my money, lol! I thought Gumboots could do it, and I'm happy to support.

I nominate Gumboots then, because I'm sure he can handle website management, but let's hear what Hawk thinks he needs to ensure the survival of hawkdawg. I'm happy to support. And though I feel like I've played SCBC, I didn't see any comment there from myself, so I'll have to play it and see if I re...

I just left a comment where I said something about when I check back here in 30 years as I'm still playing RT3 (I'm a young'un, 43, so maybe even in 50 years if I can quit smoking and drinking!) And that reminded me of something that's been worrying me, but I didn't know how or want to say it... But...
