Opinnion on PBEM Campaign Game

[Wdll]

Things would be different if the VPs for flags were much higher and tied with extra points for repairs.

Now with PBEM campaigns...well, it's just the next level of addiction.

This is where I am right now. I've made the transition and haven't played verse the AI in months. However, the campaigns are what I miss as well.

I am itching to play a campaign, but unable to buy the CD version yet, so for now, I am forced to fight single battles.

I'll get it sometime soon though, and when I do, you can bet I'll be throwing the gauntlet at a few of my opponents.

I'm on game 3 of my first campaign battle. It is different. I got the advantage in the first game and hurt my opponent bad, but came up short of the victory. So in the second battle, I got out thought and ended up with a draw, since my Opponent hid his high value units and used AH's to kill my armor. i eneded up with ALL the flags, but a marginal loss. This game I beefed up my AD and I'm holding off his Apache's, sorta.

I'm a planner, and even when my plan falls apart, I still have something to work with. So for me, the multiple battles presents a challenge, since you never know what you will get next time. Sort like that famous box of chocolates.
I like it, although the next time I want less points. After buying 200 of the most expensive units in the US Army's tpy box, I still had points left over. So I couldn't expand my core.
Map are WYSIWYG, I might try custons next time. I am player 2, so I'm not sure what happens when the game is set-up the first time.
