Unfortunately, I was the victim... Tigerwulf was the victor of the nice flank shot in a PBEM turn in Combat Mission Red Thunder:

Yup, that is a kill shot.


Quick question, and I know this could vary, how long on average does it take to finish a PBEM game?

TW and I usually do a turn or 2 a day...average... and so it seems to take about 2 weeks to complete a battle.

To add to what Mags said, we are also in different time zones so that doesn't help things when you're really getting into a battle. Kinda lucky he works shifts and I tend to stay up late smile

Sometimes you can blast through turns if both free over a weekend and get a game finished in a week.

But yeah 2 weeks is about average I'd say.

twoweeks tactical

That is very reasonable.

It has been many years since I have played a PBEM but I always appreciate the option in sims/games that can utilize it. Make gaming an option for those with latency issue or just have time commitments.
