Hey guys,
Since there is an active PBEM community here, wanted to give you guys a heads up on an issue that Glenn and I have been looking at for a few days. I don't know if you do it here, but at the Blitz it can be relatively common, so I wanted to let you all know about it and how to avoid it.
If you start up a new PBEM match having the scenario side 2 start it, this is allowed and immediately prompts for a save of the game, password etc and then the turn is sent over to your opponent.However, we have found an issue with the visibility where starting the scenario as side 2 results in the visiblity potentially changing drastically on turn 1 when the scenario is started this way, resulting in a big difference from when side 1 starts it, as the vis won't change.
So unless you want this variability, don't start up a PBEM match as side 2.
Happy Gaming.
