      Hi I'm quite new and I would like to test in PBEM with players in the last version of TWW (2.8.0.3).

      Is anyone interested?

      Low Luck and Russia-Japan Neutral ?

      Tks.

        I'll join you. I've only ever finished 2 games of TWW.

        I'd prefer Russia and Japan not to be neutral though. I think pretty much everyone plays with them at war.

              Sounds good to me. I'll play anyone, but I haven't played the USA much so I'd prefer the allies.

                if either of you or both want another game, just set one up, I'm fine with either side.

                    @redrum you are too slow. And so far you have won all of your games

                      It would be nice to have a game where each player is moving one nation, may 5 players in total. Have you ever tested?

                        @oigroig78 I'm not big fan of this but I'd give it a try

                          @wirkey You just play too fast! Though to be fair I think the 2 of us have finished more PBF TWW games then everyone else combined!

                          @oigroig78 I'd be open to a MP TWW PBF game (4-6 players). The challenges as I see in doing it are:

                          1. Need to find pretty balanced teams so the game lasts more than just a few rounds.
                          2. Need to find people that can commit to pretty much playing their turn in 24-48 hours after posted as otherwise everyone else ends up waiting on them and can end up having each player only getting like 1 turn a week which is hard to keep interested in.

                            What I can say about me is that my level is "beginner", but I do love the complexity of TWW, which makes the game so realistic.

                              I would guess that the level of experience from most to least is
                              Wirkey-->redrum-->CrazyG-->oigroig

                              So the most balanced teams are probably oigroig and wirkey vs me and redrum. I'm also hesitating but I'll give it a try

                                @crazyg Well, that would be fine with me but I'm guessing @wirkey probably wouldn't agree to that πŸ™‚

                                I think the question probably is how big of a skill gap is there between you and @oigroig78. As I think the other 3 of us are probably at least in the same ballpark as I've played competitive games against each of you.

                                  Oigroig is probably less experienced (not to be mean). Maybe after he and I finish a game we can do a multi.

                                    @crazyg Yeah, that would probably be a good idea.

                                      I agree me too, i’m For sure the less experienced on the game as @CrazyG can witness (no offence, it’s the true). In case of future multi game, I consider taking Italy as nation, because of limited range of action.

                                        @oigroig78 if you want to learn and improve I suggest to not only take Italians.
                                        For beginners I think Russia might be a good start as they don't need that much coordination with other Allies. For the Axis I think Germany/Italy are easier than Japan.

                                          Watching other players really helped me when I was newer. Especially for Japan's and Germany's turn one. I would even consider just copying someone elses opening moves at first. Then make small changes and observe the advantages/disadvantages.

                                          It would be really nice if someone wrote a guide for new players first few turns (especially tech choices). I've played a few times but I still don't get why I would ever take a few of the tech options

                                            Yeah, watching other players or looking through save games can be very helpful for newer players. It at least gives players a solid starting place and can see how the map usually plays out the first few rounds.

                                            I'll try to put a little guide together that covers basic strategy for each nation and some of the unique TWW features.
