Two Player Campaign
 

How are types of battles decided in a two player campaign? We're playing a campaign and have just had four meeting engagements in a row.

This is September, 1939 German/Polish campaign. The first three battle results were Draw, Polish Marginal victory, Polish Marginal victory. The fourth battle hasn't been decided yet.

First 3 battles are meeting engagements, then it becomes random (IIRC).

Re: Two Player Campaign
 

Do the results of previous battles have any bearing on the choice of type of battle?

Re: Two Player Campaign
 

No, they do not.

Re: Two Player Campaign
 

Too bad. Campaigns would make more sense if there was some logical continuity between battles. For example, after a Meeting Engagement, the winner would get an Advance battle. A draw of an Advance battle would give the Advance Player an Assault battle. And so forth.

And if we introduced such a scheme then people would moan about it. war is random - so random suffices.

Are Two Player Campaign's only PBEM, or can you play them hot seat too? How about WinSPMBT?

Re: Two Player Campaign
 

No official "hotseat" option exists - just play a PBEM campaign on one machine and hotseat it (no need to send the files)

Although never tried before.
Why not utilize a messenger service?
Such as yahoo Msn ect..i would think that would work since you should be able to pass files back and forth and get a tone and notice immediatly when received.
