I'm looking for PBEM oponent. I prefer SPWaW (now I play v.8.2.0 but it not condition) and Allied Forces (for eg. GB, Poland, ANZAC, Canada).

Can you upgrade to 8.403? My current opponent just dropped out on me, so I'm free to look at SPWaW again for the first time in a long time.

Yes, I can :) http://www.fprado.com/armorsite/sp_waw.htm it will be good?

I prefer fighting in Europe. I dont like to fight against "acht koma acht" on desert when german player wants limints on artillery and air strikes :)

Sounds fine.

Get updated and I'll be happy to give it a go. I haven't played SPWaW in ages. Should be fun.

If either of you guys would upgrade to enh FR I'd like to play.

OK, SPWaW upgraded to 8.403. I do not see many differences.

So, seabolt what battle conditions? Points, map, armies, year etc?

Points 2000 - 5000? (It depends on year and map)
realism preferences - ON for all
ammo carriers - ???
Air strikes: in Poland 1939 - german superiority (I mean for eg. 3:0, 4:1), balanced (or german superiority) on western front 1940 and in years 1944-45 allied superiority.
Artillery - 10% points.
Light mortars (eg. german 50mm mortar, british 2in mortar or polish 46mm GL) included in other formations like infantry platoon, doesnt count as "artillery points".
Off board artillery ???
Any other sugestions :) ?

jeffmac_01, I could install both versions.

Hey Hauer:

I'm trying to remember my SPWaW Fu, here. Let's see, assuming you're interested in playing the home team, how about:

September 1939
Germans (me) vs Poles (you)
2000 Points
Random Large Map
10% Artillery Cap (200 points) with offboard OK
Germans may purchase one (1) air section but no munitions units
Poles may purchase one (1) munitions carrier or dump but no air sections
True Troop On/Rarity Off
Fast Artillery Off
Command Control OFF
Reduced Squards OFF
All other realism ON

Any of that sound stupid?

I have Enhanced 2009 loaded with 8.403. I'm not exactly clear on what's what on the upgrades, there. Is that what you're looking for, or is there a later Enhanced upgrade?

I'd really be keen on trying an internet timed battle once I try a couple of PBEM fights to get my head back into it. Years ago I would play a guy online with 3-minute turns and it was huge fun. The ticking clock changes everything ...

OK. What about VH? Random too?

OK, sounds intresting.

seabolt Wrote:True Troop On/Rarity Off

Hmm... 2000 points and rarity off? Would you like to see horde of 7TP :) ?

seabolt Wrote:Command Control OFF

Hmm... with CC off recon units lost some of their advantages but they are still expensive (eg. uhlan troop :conf: )

seabolt Wrote:Reduced Squards OFF

OK.

I am in journey by almost whole day tomorrow.

As long as the map is roughly equitable, I'm fine with it. Random or made to look a little more realistic is fine.

I want to recall that Rarity On is a huge potential cheat for player 1. You could keep rebooting setup till you get lucky and get all the units you want, leaving player 2 to the usual Rarity On dog's breakfast. Is that not how it works?

I just figure it's easier if both players have total access and are on their own dignity to not spam bent or broken units.

Oof. I'm too out of practice to play a CC On battle in my first outing! It has been three years since I last played SPWaW.

ENH fr was released last year. Go to the Steel Panthers enhanced forum and you'll find the links there.
