Hi I'm starting a mirror match with an opponent but I'm not sure how to set it up??

I use CM helper and dropbox

OK just choose your scenario like normal, first as Allies, then choose again as Axis and then send both of them to your opponent.....One thing to remember is to mark each one so you know which is which

Example ....name of battle ..,,Vire Arch Axis 001....second one Vire ARCH Allies 001 that way you won't get mixed up, I do this way and works a dream........Hope you can understand that

Regards

Yep I do the same except I try to you my opponent's name or handle for one. So it the scenario is an attack then I would label them something like <scenario name> Ian attacks 001 and <scenario name> Joe attacks 001.

Yeah that makes sense, So for instance if I receive two files from an opponent like:

person1 Vs. person2 001

person2 Vs. person1 002

I make separate games in CM helper and send them individually?

Also whats the idea behind a mirror match? If Im choosing forces for both sides?

You will find that a lot of scenario's are a little one sided, this way playing mirror games just evens things up a bit, in the old games I did play only mirror games, with the CM games I haven't got into that at the moment, I just enjoy playing them, win or lose ..........I don't use CM helper only Dropbox

Ok, so whats the idea behind a mirror match anyway? I pick both sides forces and then we take turns with each side?

No you play both games at the same time, one game you are Axis, second game you are Allies, just do your turns together, and send both of them back to your opponent

ahh ok I get that I'm trying to get the concept, sorry I'm not being clear enough.

So the whole point is we get a chance to play each side on the same scenario at the same time in separate games so no player has some sort of advantage?
