Thank you Steve for for being on the stick about the posts, interesting statistics speak for themselves and these are from what I believe to be from only WIF board game players I wonder what the stats would say if we surveyed the war gaming computer world that might be interested in buying what many have called the finest war game ever constructed. Again, please not taking sides "just the facts maam just the facts" I personally do not like PBEM [tried it once for two weeks,] I know not a very long trial and I should give it more of a chance and will do so when MWIF is released.
Bo
That's it. And thanks, Steve.

Hard pressed on my right. My center is yielding. Impossible to maneuver. Situation excellent. I am attacking.

This citation is from a french general of WW1, if I am not mistaken. I think it's from Marechal Foch : Mon centre faibli, mon flanc droit est enfoncé, qu'est-ce que je fais? J'attaque! I like it. [:)]

Might change depending on gameplay (Witp for me went from 100% AI to 10% AI after about a year).

Ive never played this game before, but why would anyone even want to play solitaire? When you have a computer AI shouldnt you take advantage?

Depends on a number of factors - not least on whether you think the AI will provide a sufficient challenge. Depends on the game; some do, some don't. Personally, given the complexities of this game and the simply mind numbing array of moves possible with land units, aircraft etc in each sub phase (let alone impulse) I think this one is going to be extremely challenging to program - but that's just my opinion based on my memories of playing the board game over ten years ago.

For the same reason that chess players like to move the pieces around before deciding on their move. Being able to control both sides lets you explore the advantages/disadvantages of possible moves. Solitaire also lets you control the die rolls for both sides - which truly lets you see "what happens if I ... and then he ...?".ORIGINAL: BlackSunshine

For learning the rules, especially the 80 optional rules, soitaire play reduces the pain of learning by trial and error.

This is true of course. And I've had very challenging solitaire games (especially as I grow older - go figure).ORIGINAL: Shannon V. OKeets

But no matter how much thought you put into it, a real live, knowlegeable human opponent will always do something unexpected.
