I tried to use the multiplayer option in PC and there's seems to be a whole lot of nothing happening. This makes me wonder if I'm doing it right. I select "multiplayer" from the start-up menu, I log in and this opens the Multiplayer Window. I select the "Issue a Challenge" tab and then select the "issue challenage". I pick a scenario and then hit play. This puts me back at the multiplayer screen where I now see my scenario, the side and the date.

And then nothing happens.

I've waited for 30 minutes with absolutely nothing occurring. Am I doing this correctly?

Thxs,

You need to wait until someone accepts your challenge and then your game will be moved to the “Current Games” tab. If it’s your turn it will be under the “My Turn”-- or your opponet's turn.

Thanks for the tip. It all made sense once I checked my email. For some reason I was thinking that multiplayer meant real time. As in two people sitting somewhere in the world waiting on each person to finish their turn, sorta like Blizzards Starcraft. I realize now that it's a PBEM system.

Once you have enough games going (account limit is 20 at a time) you'll find that as you finish playing a turn, you will find another game waiting to be played. So if you're looking for constant action, post up a good list of games and accept some more too. Guaranteed hours of un-interrupted gaming.
