Default Re: What do you consider acceptable PBEM turnaroun

How are those PBEM campaigns working out? Is it basically like playing an AI campaign,except its not the AI?

As far as turns being well done, thats a big reason I try to keep unit counts down at all costs in a PBEM. If your dealing with huge armies on the largest maps, it's expected that it will take much longer to process.

The game I'm currently waiting for is small. France (me) vs Netherlands 2008 It's a 100 H X 120 W map, but we only get 5700 points each and 2 air. So theres not an excess of units on the map. Turns are quick. Shouldn't take a week to get a single turn done.

I have also played a few opponents (who I won't mention) that completely forget about an ongoing game, and it never gets finished. The last such game I was doing pretty good in too, then boom nothing.
