Brit looking for PBEM CEAW 1.12/GS 1.01 Game

Hi - I've recently come back to CEAW after a long break, I played it a few times back at the start of 2008, but the lack of weather rules and unrealistic unlimited invasions put me off playing it further - BUT I've recently discoved the GS mod and have played this against the computer sufficiently to make me realise that this turns CEAW into a much more realistic and fun game and I now want to play against a human (PBEM) opponent, as of course this is the real challenge!

I would like to play with CEAW 1.12/GS 1.01 and the folowing optional rules: Fog of War, Limited Oil Supply, 1945 end. I would prefer to play with non-random research, if possible.

Ideally I would like to play the Axis in the 1939 scenario, but I don't really mind playing the Allies either, as this might be a good learning experience! I'm not an expert at CEAW/GS, but have played enough games against the computer and hotseat solo to feel reasonably capable, and have lots of experience playing other WWII grand strategy games in the past (e.g. Totaler Krieg, World in Flames, Clash of Steel etc.)

BTW I live in Oxford, England, though am happy to play opponents from anywhere!

Thanks

Actually, having just read the option description, random research may be better, I thought it meant research was completely random, but this is not so...

1.12/GS1.00 and 1.12/GS1.01 are compatible. GS1.01 should officially be released next week and contains a few bug fixes. If GS1.00 works for you then you can go ahead and use that until GS1.01 is released. You will be able to continue saved games when you apply GS1.01.

Manual Hotfix is available here: viewtopic.php?p=118566#118566

I was having the loading bug it describes, so needed to install it.

BTW I now have 2 CEAW/GS games started, which is probably enough for me for now! :-)
