Hi all, My names Rico and I'm from Singapore. My old callsign was 21Sierra which explains why i'm using this nick.:D

Have been playing previous TOAWs for quite sometime. Including TOAW 3. Never ever play a PBEM game before as I have been doing my time vs the AI. ;)

As i have never played a PBEM before, pls kindly advice on what are the things i need to do in order to run a PBEM. :shy:

Would like to look for a PBEM opponent for a game small to medium size / length. I'm am able to commit at least 2 to 3 turns a week at the minimun.
No preferences to any particular maps. So PM me if you'r interested for a game.
:laugh:

Hi,

I'm your future opponent! I will only play WW 2 scenarios. Tell me which scenario you want to play.

I'd suggest starting with something a little smaller seeing as this is your first PBEM game. Kharkov is a good one, as both sides get an opportunity to go on the offensive. You're going to find that playing a person is a far cry different than beating on the AI - the game changes to a dramatic degree.

Playing the vets with uncountable battlescars is a great way to smooth down the PBEM learning curve, if you can find an opponent willing to spend a little time telling you the how's and why's of what's going on inside the game. Perhaps a little after action advice to sharpen your game.
