Hello, Is multi player working? I do not use steam. I see many Challenges; what does it take to accept a challenge (How is a guy able to acquire a password)?
I have another (one of many) question; as long as I am here- Is it possible to eliminate (computer version) a two step unit with one attack (does not appear so)?
The game has lost its flavor, I need some live action...Whoo Yaa!

passwords are for private matches, post one your self and don't password it then someone else will join, good luck and may the dice roll in your favour
a two step unit with one attack
no
and ask what ever you like, sometimes i even get a few answers right
but it's like dice and about 50/50 tbh

All those games (the only games) are password protected...that is crazy.
I have posted "new challenge" Nothing happens other than me receiving a Email notice telling me the game has been completed (24hr later)? It looked like I had an opponent at one time, ''Waiting for opponent'' was the only screen I was able to see (for about 18 hours), then the next thing I see is "game complete"

Yes I do have 1.06.
Page 30 of the game manual.
Note: if you attack is so overwhelmingly powerful...
What is that talking about?

People prefer to accept not issue challenges so there is always a shortage. Just post one and its usually accepted within a few minutes!

1)Page 30 of the game manual.

I don't think this is the case in the computer version???
2)Often times I would like to know what kind of terrain a unit is on...is it possible to view?
While placing orders during 'turn' set up, how do I know what turn it is?

3)Is there any way of telling what kind of damage an enemy vehicle has taken while on the Battlefield?
4)If you eliminate all enemy units in a scenario do you get credit for completing objectives?
5)While placing orders during 'turn' set up, how do I know what turn it is?
2, right click on the terrain gets you a picture up with the terrain on the right hand side of the screen to view

3, yes again right click the unit
4, yes
5, as it says who's turn goes first by the country symbol

If I am on the orders phase, how can I tell what turn it is?

While in the 'orders phase' (at the start of every new turn...) I don't see anything but the score counter (on the upper far right).
I guess there is no indicator other than when you first enter the game turn.
It would be useful to have one; for those of use who have multiple games going or if we leave the table for sec.

Sure is a long list of locked games, just waiting for opponents, I think some of the players don't understand; You need friend to play. A locked game should not stay on the board for too long, eh?
Nothing but locked games for weeks...crazy

you always have the option of PMing the user on the forum or steam and asking etc, some may play, while others won't.
but yes i agree there should be a time limit maybe for a match to be hosted and if no one plays it should be auto removed, then again nothing stopping the users to re do it either so it's a short term and long term problem, maybe a filter to filter out all passworded games is needed
