Of course this is only a poll with its limitations, especially on a forum ie:
- not significative (I know that 28 voters are far not enough to be representative of a population)
- not necessarily reflecting the reality

Oh well, maybe I should have not run this poll.

No....... it's always interesting to see who is playing the game but it must be taken into account that the only people who fill things like this out are the ones that bother to take the time and the vast majority who log on can't be bothered which skews the results.

That and the fact that a large majority of players only log on to get patches and never read the forums.

Hello,

I'm 58, I am retired and I play Spww2 since the French magazine Cyberstratège (sadly defunct) presented the mod that needed to have the original game SP2 or SP3.
I also tried Spw@w but I prefer Winspww2.
I play more Winspww2 than WinSPMBT because I prefer the period of the Second World War.
I have the free versions of these games.
I appreciate the follow-up of these mods, pledge their perenity.

Have fun with it.

Yves

Bonjour,

J'ai 58 ans, je suis retraité et je joue à Spww2 depuis que la revue française Cyberstratège (hélas disparue) a présenté le mod qui nécessitait de posséder le jeu original SP2 ou SP3.
J'ai également essayé Spw@w mais je préfère Winspww2.
Je joue plus à Winspww2 qu'à Winspmbt car je préfère la période de la seconde guerre mondiale.
Je dispose des versions gratuites de ces jeux.
J'apprécie le suivi de ces mods, gage de leur pérénité.

Bon jeu à tous.

I've "only" done my military service and afterwards been a volunteer within the Swedish armed forces.

What I love about the game is that it leaves a lot of room for your imagination and isn't angled so that the "good guys" have the better equipment because they won the Cold war or something like that. I also like the fact that it (and SPWW2 for that matter) is open for the users to partly modify the game the way they want to and thus improve the game. Also, since I'm a parent, it is good to know that you always can push the "Save" button when you have to interupt the game and then simply continue where you left it. In a online game that isn't possible.

Cheers, Taskforce

I'm 30.
US Army (active) 2003-05: Petroleum Supply in Korea
Florida National Guard 2005-2008: Light Infantry
US Marine Corps 2009-2013: Aviation Command and Control officer in Okinawa

Happily a civilian now.

I've not been playing SP long (<2 years), and didn't get seriously into it until a few weeks ago. It's a great complement/substitute for tabletop wargaming.
