Hi,

so I finally bought the CD versions of the games and I am eager to try the PBEM campaign.

Therefore I have a question regarding setting one up. How many points are good for a core force on a small-to-medium map (about 80x100)? Any other general advice, so it does not get one-sided fast?

Thanks.

I don't normally play on maps that small, but maybe 1500 points for your core force.

Here's two rules you may want to consider:

*No capture of V hexes on last turn (as last move replay unavailable in PBEM campaign)

*Captured equipment: You may purchase an enemy vehicle or crewed gun that surrendered, was abandoned or immobilized, and ended a previous battle undestroyed and overrun.
(trophy vehicles)

For such a small map I'd use 1000 pts or even 750, you get another 750 or something for aux and usually the your core will expand a little after each battle so you end up with much larger force than you started the campaign with.

I can play a short one if you like.
