PBEM Questions

I'm just getting into my first FoF PBEM game and have two quick questions:

1) What technique is used to call in units in neighboring provinces to reinforce a Quick Combat? For some reason I thought it was simply to have "Seek Battle" engaged, but there must be more to it because my guys don't seem inclined to help out :)

2) How does one pull up the Events Report as the CSA player?

Thanks!
Ron

1) That is usually the way to go, having it on seek battle. It can becomes a bit of a game tho. Make a divsion soak off attack a army/ corps so its fixed and while attack other part of army with a full army in adjecting province.
A whole new game within the game. Really makes u think about how, which and where do u have which units. U cant be sure what opponent does and well humans tend to make better / mroe elaborate plans for such than AI. Adds a whole new dimension.

2) u dont get the report automaticly but pressing the event button should bring it up. Doesnt that work?

Hope it helps,

Rasmus

Thanks, that's what I thought (about reinforcement). Should add a whole new dimension when playing against real people!

Duh, yes my Events button works fine. I just forgot about it having become use to the automatic display between turns!
