I thought it would be interesting to see what SB titles we have been playing and managed to find the latest results for the last 90 days. I am not suggesting this is statistically significant, but it is interesting. (to a stats nerd like me anyway
)
The table below shows number of games played and title
5 First World War
4 Pacific War
4 Red Victory
3 Advance of the Reich
2 Soviet Afghan War
2 Vietnam
1 Eagles Strike
1 Red Star over Europe
1 Spanish Civil War
1 Tour of Duty
1 Winter War
I think it broadly shows what I might have expected. Not surprising to see Red Victory near the top and, of all the Mods, only RSOE gets a look in.
5 @ FWW is intriguing - some folks must be running a series game or something? I have yet to play even one FWW via PBEM. Next for us Embis?
Yes, very interesting to see....Thanks Mark for taking the time to look into things.
I too, was surprised to see FWW at the top....Someone must have created a new art mod!

That was one person storming a few games so shouldn't read too much into it, I think I might try and revisit this every 90 days if I can, and over time it will show more clearly which titles are the most popular, though I think most of the hard core will have a good idea which ones are likely to head the league!
I wonder if JTS will publish new squad battle game? I really love this series.
No Dien Bien Phu? That is a really underrated title.

I like that one a lot!
Just added a further 90 days data so the table below is for 180 days:
11 First World War
7 Advance of the Reich
6 Vietnam
6 Red Victory
5 Pacific War
4 Tour of Duty
3 Eagles Strike
2 Red Star over Europe
2 Soviet Afghan War
1 Dien Bien Phu
1 Proud and Few
1 Winter War
1 Spanish civil war
1 Winter War
surprisingly, to me at least, FWW still way ahead and Red Star still the only Mod being played.
It appears that despite all the apparent enthusiasm for new mods most people are sticking to the original titles. I think that's a credit to the team at JTS, who are clearly excellent at producing what the community wants.
270 Days data
This isn't for 270 consecutive days, I was a bit late gathering the data so between the last post and this there are probably two or three weeks missing:
17 First World War
17 Pacific War*
14 Advance of the Reich
12 Red Victory
8 Tour of Duty
7 Vietnam
7 Eagles Strike
4 SB WW2
3 Winter War
2 Red Star over Europe
2 Soviet Afghan War
2 Proud and Few
2 Spanish civil war
1 Dien Bien Phu
*one player accounts for 13 of the 17 Pacific war games.
Bit surprised that FWW tops the list and AOTR is outdoing RV
PW is always been a bit underrated so good to see it up there.
Shame that Africa at War mod doesnt get played, very fun game
