Opponent wanted. I will play either side. Can do about a turn a day, little more on weekends...

Very odd indeed, and wrong as you say...don't know how to paste a screenshot but situation briefing makes no mention of nukes.

<t> Ok into May '65 and US Marines and special forces are pushing back VC around Hue, pushing north near DMZ and planning to attack NVA there. Enjoying the scenario very much - then out of the blue I see nuclear contamination markers pop up at Phan Thiet (96, 129). Very little damage done to ARVN ...

Is Dr. Foo taking new patients?

I can play at your pace. Ideal would be one turn daily, but less frequently is ok too.

Hello Von Beanie - I also have about a month of free time right now and can do one turn a day thereafter. Never played pbem but a lot against the AI. Also have never tried the Confederate side. If you want somebody a little more experienced I understand.

Exactly. I was thinking from what I read on the various product pages that future scenarios would just install under the original AJE game. I would have waited also, and for the same reason as Wodin.

<t> 'Strategy: If you've not already discovered it, I highly recommend the book "Shattered Sword" which is the story of Midway from the Japanese perspective. The book's praises have been sung on many threads in this forum and rightly so, it's a great read. Will not only give you a fascinating ...

will PM you now

Ok I just found the file in the game directory and I can compare notes with my partner, maybe try to figure out how this happened. Probably something dumb I did...

What does this file do? I see it has a .DAT extension.

Sorry, is that a part of the program code? If we're using the same beta version shouldn't that be the same?

Just starting a new PBEM with my Japanese opponent - first turn file he sends me I get the following message: "PWHex data differs. Continue? Y / N"

Can somebody tell me why that happened and if its a problem please?

We are using beta: 1108K9 from April 24th

I'd rather be playing AE. there's no blood and guts involved when I (inevitably) screw up and get my digital soldiers, sailors, marines and airmen killed.

<t> Interesting discussion regarding Monty. As always I am impressed by the knowledge on display in this forum. One small point to add to the discussion regarding Monty's performance that I didn't see mentioned is the fact that much of what he did was governed by the increasingly severe manpower ...

<t> Seydlitz thanks for documenting your game, I have really enjoyed reading it.&nbsp; It seems like the Soviets are about to be knocked out of their Asian/Pacific bases,&nbsp;and you will defeat them.&nbsp; Two questions about that:<br/>

1) Do the Soviets continue to get ...

<t> Canoerebel - I understand the two examples, your scouting TF, and my cruiser raiders, are not completely analogous. The purpose of each was different. I was focused&nbsp;the point your oppoenent made about about air cover which is common in the two examples. His argument there is really a non ...

<t> I agree with Bullwinkle. You're certainly cutting your opponent a lot of slack on point #1.&nbsp; Agsint my PBEM partner, I just staged a couple of crusier TF raids on the North Shore of New Guineau to bust up some small Japanese TFs unloading there. It's January 1942 and I could not exactly ...

<t> 3:30 Monday I am home sick from work - don't feel like playing AE so I check out the three channels that I always go to first. Here's what's on:<br/>
<br/>
History Channel - Monster Quest<br/>
History Channel International - Haunted History<br/>
Military Channel - Futureweapons, something ...
