About the only PBEM games I win at all are Panzer Campaigns in PBEM or Field Of Glory by Slitherine. I always choke up when the time comes to actually play well. I have only really won one game of PBEM Smolensk 41 and thats about it. Although I usually cut it close. Red Victory and Advance of the Reich are awesomeadminnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2804163144545045149.post-73023710470912667892011-01-02T15:01:27.000-06:002011-01-02T15:01:27.000-06:00If you want to test out PBEM...hit me up at blitz ...If you want to test out PBEM...hit me up at blitz (gabeeg)!harrynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2804163144545045149.post-82247975169062969052011-01-02T17:09:42.000-06:002011-01-02T17:09:42.000-06:00I shall but I must warn you I am terrible.

Your in good sucking company :) I have only played a total of 5 pbem games with WinSPWW2 and I have always liked WinSPWW2..but after PBEM I love it. Wonder why I waited so long. WinSPWW2 and HPS/JTS SB are just damn fun PBEM. Speaking of which, Red Victory is excellent for PBEM if you have not tried it outside of solo against that AI.harrynoreply@blogger.com
