I've played a few games vs the AI... It's been ok. I'm looking for some other new players or even medium level players for PBEM. I can certainly do at least one turn a day and probably more. Message me if interested.

I've been trying to get a PBEM game lately. Can play once per day at least, except when traveling (infrequent). I will play either side. If you are interested, let me know. If Axis, send turn, or if Allies, let me known and I will send turn 1. I would say I am of medium skill level. Haven't done a PBEM game in over a year. Hope to hear from you.

@ Gmothes I have sent you a game.

Also currently in game with nicodemus22 & Avoran.... Could probably withstand 1 or 2 more games if any other beginner/mid-level players would like a game.

I've played 3 complete games of v1.07. One as Axis and two as Allies. I am still learning and looking for someone else that has similar experience or is new to the game for some PBEM v2.0.

I am most interested in playing at least one game as Axis... all the recommended default settings.
If you want to play as Axis, I am willing to be Allies as well.

I'd be happy to play either side.

My preferred options are all except the following:

parachute corps
purchased Russian guards
combat roll averaging

I feel especially strongly about not using the last one. The uncertainty and chance for setbacks is part of the fun.

Well you can get those without option 3!

play me for uncertainty (you will never know what your going to get)

play Neil for setbacks (he is a top player)

also note that 'option 3' suggests replaying turns for advantage to some suspicious minds

Ha, well to those who interpret the roll averaging as an anti-cheating measure, I'd have to recommend that they only play with friends or the AI or switch to a game like chess. A little paranoia might be a good thing, but only a little.

Wargaming is a venerable and honorable tradition. If someone can't relate to that and to the integrity of playing a game straight then I don't need to waste my time or theirs.

Averaging is an anti-luck measure not an anti-cheating one.

I PMed you but as I don't have your email address I am waiting for you to send the first turn.

Thank you all for the games. I currently have enough going to keep me busy at the moment.
