OK got the game, but it gives me no options what to do to move my army. Do you have any suggestions?
Click Help menu, then Help, read on.
The game is useless. I read everything and I can't get anything to move or go into the city. Oh well.
Movement is done by keys QWEADZXC. For everything else, RTFM (Read The Fine Manual)
That is way too complex for me and no matter how hard I try I am not able to figure it out and no one wants to take the time to explain it to me without getting frustrated because they think I'm a nimrod for not knowing how to do it. My question is: how the hell did you all learn how to do it?
These are few things what you need to know:
1. How game works, how its PBEM works, and where the PBEM files go (see game manual)
2. If there are more than 1 file for PBEM, learn to use file packing programs, like WinZip or WinRAR. Windows XP and Vista have built-in program that can create and handle *.zip files.
3. Learn to use e-mail and e-mail attachments. Easier alternative for e-mail programs are WWW based sites which actually work.
Gmail has been recommended by many, though personally I still use Yahoo! Mail just becouse I found it first.
As for how I learned all that, it was a long time ago and sometimes darn frustrating. First file packing program I used was ARJ, that is used by text commands. Basics of Internet (e-mails included) was taught in schools, and I learned something there. For PBEM I had read SPWAW game manuals. Over the time most of the stuff became routine.
