For future games, it would be nice to know how you are playing?

Are you playing against other humans?

Are you playing against HAL (the AI?)

Do you play both?

HAL almost exclusively.

Excellent to know, jack! Thank you for sharing!

What kind of scenarios do you prefer playing HAL?

My favorites are smaller sized meeting engagements. (I don't mind anything if it's historical but I usually look for smaller stuff.)

Any particular force structure? Or is variety good?

Like most wargamers I enjoy a good armor clash but I love the airmoble aspect of the modern setting.

Good to know, good to know.

Obviously, there won't be many armour meeting engagements in Vietnam. NATO War/Cold War I would definitely imagine there will be though!

Actually I think I may enjoy airmoble and Brown water just as much if not more.Something different.

Sorry didn't mean to dominate the poll thread.[;)]

Conversations are good, jack! Knowing what the customers want will help them get it!

mainly HAL but playing in Blitz tourney

thanks,

Thanks for sharing, Casebier!

Always was a campaign guy, but find myself mostly PBEM now!

What kind of campaigns do you like, Mike?

I have always prefer campaigns. Prefer the DCG but as there are non in ME, playing scenerios.

There are Linked Campaigns though!

True. I started one, and then went back to scenarios. I will try again latter.

I have intention to add more Linked Campaigns for Middle East, so if there are things you would like to see/play, don't hesitate to ask!

Hi Jason,

I'm about half & half human vs HAL.

When I do play HAL I tend in general to like the larger scenarios SM 7 or higher. Also like to random generate
scenarios, tweak them a bit and try them out on HAL just to see how he does. Mostly armored breakthrough or
bridgehead generated.

Against humans I'll try any scenario at least once. Outlaw Josie Wales and myself have an intense one going on right now
with Day of the Centurion. Very tough battle with close quarters tank combat in somewhat open terrain.

For campaign games like DCG more than LCG because of the randomness.

Overall mostly a WWII East Front guy who cut his teeth on Avalon Hill board games years ago. If it catches my fancy will always
checkout a new WWII game before anything else.

Thanks
John

That's excellent information! Thank you, Big Ivan!

Hi Jason,

Sorry got sidetracked, I usually liked DCG's also because the random factor involved. Linked are very cool as well, and my hat is off to anyone that spends all that time formulating the various branches!! I find myself now playing PBEM mostly, just so damn fun to play against a human, I have played the same scenario 2-3 times against different guys, and it's always different, how cool is that?!
