How many spwaw players do you think there are?

Post by Alby »

Just wondering how many people you think are playing SPWAW these days.
I have no idea, anyone hazard to make a guess?

I have some info after a few people post.

Well if you look at the posts with no replies. They show on average between 100 and 150 'views'. So... I would deduce that we have around 100 to 150 'players'.

I'd estimate, off of this forum, no more than 200. Off the Depot, easily above that. It's hard to tell by just a random site statistic. There are plenty who don't come to either forums and just play by themselves, alone, devoid of contact by other human beings. :P I'd guess at least 500 casual and regular players that play this game semi-regularly.

Based on scenario downloads at the Wargamer, a minimum of 1400.
Retreat is NOT an option.

Gee, here I thought this was a REAL small market for this game. I guess the generals edition had somethign to do with this.

So SPWaW has a market twice the size of the entire strategy gaming market in it's entirety. :P Cool. Something to put on the old resume.

You can find SPWaW forums based in Japan, the US, Poland, Germany, etc. I am guessing there are quite a few of us out there.

I probably clicked on the download over 900 times cause my firewall likes to block traffic.

azrealick, you really put SPWAW on your resume? I mean, that will score points with me perchance I'm the one screening the resumes but most managers will think you are a nutter. Actually, I also think you are a nutter.

Actually, it's gotten me two girlfriends, a brand new car, and a horde of books that I've not had the time to dig through. I've been working steady since I was 15, so my resume tends to not get used for jobs. Not bad considering I haven't been playing for all that long really.

I used to play the original Steel Panthers, and started playing again a few months ago.  I downloaded the most current edition of SPWAW.  Id like to play a megacampaign but don't want to buy the General Edition.  The new equipment, additional units and increased realism are great inprovements.  I definately plan playing this game until a superior WWII game comes along.
 
 
Anyone have a megacampaign they want to unload on PanzerGrenadier with an itchy triger finger?

Really? I guess most of your co-workers must be games geeks and you girlfriends must think that game geeks are cool. Wow. Where do you find people like those?

, a brand new car well ya, a 5th or 6th hand lemon is still technically 'new' for you if you just bought it.
, and a horde of books you really think that stack of spuzzle covered porno mags are something to brag about?
that I've not had the time to dig through. I've been working steady since I was 15 That must be exciting. Do you get free BigMacs now as benefits after doing all that time?
, so my resume tends to not get used for jobs Hmmm no probing the job market; stale in life as well in mind right azrealick?
. Not bad considering I haven't been playing for all that long really.
Impressive, you can actually take on the AI with your 6 companies and piles of mines.
