Hi looking for some one to play: 0615_01 Frontier of Freedom_Alt with me as NKPA. I need to play standard K85 not Gold version since i lost most of my old HPS CD's :) and i can't get the Gold version. 

I can do 3 - 4 turns a week sometimes more. 
Im open for rules selection since i haven't played the game for some time ;)

Any takers?? :)

I would but only have the gold

Gent: 

Why can't you get the Gold version?

(1.) Contact JTS Support and correspond with Rich. He is very helpful in these matters.

or

(2.) Purchase and download the Gold version. Takes less then 5 minutes to pay, download and install on a decent PC rig and Internet connection. 

Note - It will be difficult to get opponents to play "vanilla" Korea'85. Free Gold version upgrades were offered to existing game owners a while ago...   

Suggestion - Since you have not "played the game for some time," jumping full bore into a 180-turn Campaign scenario that may take up to a year to complete is NOT the way to get back into playing!   

Why not pick a small or medium sized scenario to get back into PBeM?

Well the problem with getting Gold version is that my original CD got lost somewhere during the years last time i found Danube Front'85 in my moms basement :) so maybe rest of those CD's are still somewhere there :) but since its a mess and my time is limited i don't have time to throw out everything out of there the earliest i can look for it is probably spring unless it got dumped to the trash :)

I only have the old version of hps games on my hard drive because when i threw out my old PC i attached the old HDD to the new one :)

180 turns??? :) bah try to play WITP AE from 1941 to 1945 thats more turns :)

Maybe forget about trying to find your lost CD and just purchase Korean '85? All MC games have been upgraded to Gold.   

My experience with new players at the Blitz who have no recorded matches and admit to not having played a specific game for a while... have limited time... and want to launch straight into a campaign scenario... they never go the distance and end up either quitting the game after a few turn exchanges or disappearing all together.

Maybe you are the exception to the rule?  

In any case, seems your best course of action is to purchase Korea '85 so you can get playing.

If you bought the original game from HPS there should be a record of it and Rich at JTS Support will issue you a serial number so you can upgrade the game.
