Once Upon a Time...

Hi Mike,
Its sad to say that the Squad battle Boards here do seem rather dead. I was hoping that this would pick up with the new releases but that doesn't seem to be the case. Maybe as we update the other titles things will improve, I hope so. There seems to be much more activity on the WDS forums when it comes to game hunting. I have been a member here for much longer than my profile reports, probably 15 years or more, I must have had a break and got kicked out at some point,  but I have never known it this quiet. There might be something in what Jason says about people finding fixed opponents.

I think it might also coincide with WDS opening up their boards. That's now  the first place everybody sees that they can find opponents, so new blood doesn't come through as often as it did.

Having said that in the 15 odd years I have been here I don't think the boards have ever been updated and the forum is starting to look quite dated, so newcomers aren't attracted to it. Appearances do matter, even if we might like to think we are above that sort of superficiality.

I still think the Blitz club is much cooler than the WDS offical forum , especially with this reporting and ladder system, and wonderful scenario database. And I don't see many people looking for opponents in the squad battle section of WDS forum, I guess it's just not as popular as other series.
