Hi there,
Where can we find the save file of a Solo campaign ? (so as to be able to send it to another player).
Many thanks for any assistance... :D

On my PC (windows) I can see Order of Battle Files at D:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\Order of Battle Pacific
However there is no savegame folder there, where is that folder located ?

Here, both custom scenarios/campaigns and savegames/screenshots. I have a desktop short-cut to this very important folder...

It's in a subfolder of your "My Documents" folder.
On my PC (Windows 8.1) it's "D:\User\Documents\my games\Order of Battle - Pacific\SaveGames".

So if you go to your "My Documents" folder there should be a subfolder "My Games" etc.

You know there are a few MP-games for several humans, both land and naval? 2 vs 2 and 2 cooperate vs AI (land only)

What would you suggest ? Looking for Coop vs AI turn based game where humans play simultaneously, (ie not PBEM,) ideally each player would be playing on their own PC (no Hotseat) and should be able to move their units at the same time ... once everyone has played then the turn would end and the AI would play its turn (while human players could discuss tactics over skype for example). Do you see a game that could fit these requirements ? We've been looking for this sort of game for years .....
