Noob looking for a game & advice

[arclight]

Hey guys - I've just finished my first game with a win. The dude I was playing against quit like a cry baby about half way through and has then sent me emails bleating about assualt rules and etc. [he chose scenario and side]. He's now sending me abuse about being 'dishonourable' for claiming the win - is that usual, because if it is then I'm not going to play here any more. What's wrong with taking the medicine if you lose?

On another subject - I'm learning in another game that Polish machine guns are somewhat average.
