New Player PBEM Wanted

Hi all. Wanted to get together a PBEM game. Two on two, with the WA controlling China unless someone has a better idea. Was thinking basic supply with FOW unless that's no good for PBEM.
Please respond here if interested.
Thx.

I'll do it. Either side is fine, but I would rather not be Germany.

Its usual to have Russia and China be controlled by the same player. The WA has plenty to do as it is - where Russia sit idle for quite a while and never gets as much to do as the WA.

If there is room, I'll join. Don't care who I play.
I just got the game recently working on my system and feel ready for a PBEM game. New player, so go easy on me.

Doh! I guess that option to have replies sent to you via email doesn't actually work...
Anyway, looks like we have enough players. I like Jan's suggestion about having Russia handle China. Nobody but Adze really expressed a preference so hopfully this lineup is OK with everyone:
GOPconservative1 - Western Allies
Adze - Germany
sajbalk - Russia/China
Me (Hugh_Hefner) - Japan
Sorry, SoulBlazer, just taking the first three that replied to be fair.
Emails are as follows:
GOPconservative1 -
Jramsey2@carolina.rr.com
Adze -
ruckdotcom@yahoo.com.au
sajbalk -
salbalk@aol.com
Me (Hugh_Hefner) -
misterrude2003@hotmail.com
Adze, if you could kick things off I would appreciate it. Good luck to all!

sorry about the last post.
Anyway:
1. Fog of war? Default should be "on"
2. AV? I would vote London or Moscow plus 70 PP.
3. Any special rules re: Persia, i.e. must stay neutral until Ger at war with USSR
4. Any special rules re: USSR/W.Alllies bombing Japan to unfreeze themselves.
5. Any special rules re: USSR/W.Allies attacking Japan to unfreeze themselves.
I will send an e-mail to all when I send out a turn.
BTW, my e-mail is sajbalk<at>aol.com, not salbalk
Looking forward to it.

And, I would think that the Germans may well prefer to use advanced supply. I am fine with either, but that would be my preference.

Yea, that all sounds pretty good to me...Ill just double check a few things about playing PBEM and Ill get the first turn crackin...
And definitely AS on..
As for these:
4. Any special rules re: USSR/W.Alllies bombing Japan to unfreeze themselves.
5. Any special rules re: USSR/W.Allies attacking Japan to unfreeze themselves.
Lets start off nice and casual and avoid for now eh?

I sent my turn over to you yesterday. I'll try sending again. Could it have gotten filtered as junk mail perhaps?
