Play PBEM!
Forget the Soviet AI!
Play the Axis and BE IN DOUBT THAT YOU CAN WIN(in the long run)
I really like playing the Soviets.(I like the defence)
To counter problems with the game I will only.

Durring blizzard turns the soviets ONLY attack with one HQ and it's armies(limmit 4) and the army can only attack for 2 turns. Thats one army for two turns or one new army each turn.(Breaks in blizzard are deleted)

Thats all i'm willing to conceed. The Soviets have a hard enough time of it as it is and one of you out there is already causing me to think mighty hard.

The Axis has superior forces. What it needs to win is superior strategy.

I'd like to thank Matrix games for turning this into true simulation of the Russo-german conflict(as opposed to Ver 1) I've played so many board game versions of this that the PC version that you GIVE away is a dream. To be able to modifiy the initial axis setup has always lured me to the game and all you detractors out there who have to have a whine about the game have obviously never played a tabletop game in your lives.

If you want to play the Axis with no idea of what will happen then start a 1941 Campaign/PBEM/Even then zip the

PS. I've just gone through all your posts on this board.If you can do better then go for it. Bugger it's FREE! Something so interesting that is free is hard to come by.I'm saying this because not one post has said 'good job' Hey who's paying for this? No-one it's a labour of love. Give the bloke some credit.

Well done Matrix

I really like playing the Soviets and you WILL get a good game playing PBEM with me.

1. Durring blizzard turns the soviets ONLY attack with one HQ and it's armies(limmit 4) and the army can only attack for 2 turns. Thats one army for two turns or one new army each turn.(Breaks in blizzard are deleted)
2. To Bypass the problems RickyB pointed out with saving PBEM games i play the whole turn in one go and do not save for latter review.
First time only time.As i've always done.

Lokioftheaesir,

I would be happy to play a game against you and would not impose any restriction on you for blizzard turns. I'll send you an E-Mail from home in a few hours to work out the details. I'm not familiar with the PBEM problems but it sounds like there is a possible cheat involved so wwhatever you want to do is fine with me. I have never used this PBEM so will need to become familar with it. I also reorganize the dispoaition of the German forces before 6/22/1941 but we will have to agree on what I can do before we start. Let know if you are interested.
