Fixed a few of my issues that made me think it lower marks... ugly ground objects and difficulty getting it selected due to big/slow fingers... (ask my wife, lol)...
What's New in Version 1.91
A note to all fans: remember to review the game again after the update! It really helps to spread the word!
+ added retina support for stunning high resolution
+ shows the ground objects on the iPad 3
Other bug fixes:
+ fixed a bug where you could not start custom MP map games from the iPad
+ a tweaked rotation and zoom for smoother action
+ a tweaked UI to make rotation, zoom, and drag clearer
+ upped double tap timings to help out slower-fingered players
+ should solve issue with display corruption during startup (purely cosmetic).

Silly question: How do you invite people to a PBEM??

U set up the game in mp, put a password on it and let the other know... All games are listed.
Ya k, nice tank battle we got going, still learning... Trying to figure out how to turn my tanks, front towards enemy... Wish I could tell what the sight distance is, try to move my tanks to flank u but engaged early.

To turn your tank, after you move just point to the square next to your tank in the direction you want to turn, it will show you a little turn icon, doesn't seem to cost much action points.
Yeah learning too, your M18 Hellcats are deadly :-)

Kludger, congrats... U kicked my ass on that one. US tanks should not go head to head with German tanks, but I could never get into a flank hit position... Lost every tank, lol.

Yeah thanks Mag, that was fun, I got lucky having the German armor and I think I figured out some of the LOS and facing mechanics a couple of turns ahead of you, probably was good for my part since I'm a newbie at these games and it kept me motivated but I'm sure in a level field you'd beat me no prob. I'm really liking BA and PBEM so I'd be up for more games anytime if you feel like giving it another go.

Probably close to it at $20, but unlike most other iOS games, Battle Academy is the full blown game same as on the PC and Mac where it costs $29.99.
I for one welcome this model, I'd rather pay full price for a deep PC like game on iPad, than pay $2.99 for a limited "mobile" light game with less features, hopefully it will pan out financially for them.
