Count me in! I've never played against a human opponent but I do want to try this! I'd like to play Finland with no aircraft nor air support. Artillery 10 % sounds good. Is the game going to be PBEM?

Well enough time spent waiting. Since we only have 4 players, the tournamnet format will be as in the following. We play each other, a win counts as a point. At the end there will be 2 players left to compete for the title.

If above format is acceptable, we can start.

First round:
Ironfist vs red2
SteelPanther vs VokingNo2

Only 4? Where did you guys advertise for this at? I saw something at the SPWAW Depot but not anywhere else?

Maybe everyone is busy with SPMBT or one of the new releases but with the SPWAW following here and at the SPWAW Depot I would have thought more would have volunteered. Could also be it's summer now. [:(]

Double Deuce, it was posted in the "opponents wanted" and spwaw.com board after a Arthur (spwaw) requested it. He also thought many ppl would be interested but so far we only had 4 entries.
I didn't want to start a direct mail campaign for it :D so we'll start with 4, the new format will allow us to introduce new players if they appear.

I can post something over at SZO if you want to see if it can add some more players. I think most of them are sitting by the mailbox waiting for their SPMBT CD's but I know many of them also play SPWAW since most of the games reported on our ladder are for SPWAW.

Do you have the format details and how they should go about contacting you? I can put something together and post it. Just let me know.
