I dea for new players - Stejones82 - 11-24-2012 Greetings again, Most of you know that i am a new player, with Eagles Strike and Vietnam in hand for only four days now. Though I have little experience, I want to share something that has helped me, and I would recommend it to the powers-that-be to place it somwhere quite visible and handy to newcomers. I recently started a new game, but I chose the option to play as "two player Hot Seat." Then I chose the scenario "Busy Bosses" and proceeded to play BOTH sides via the hot seat option. This has taught me a lot about the nuances of the game! Seeing which units 'vanish' upon the change of the 'player' has helped me to understand concealment. Seeing the auto-defensive fire, has helpd me learn about that. For any newcomer to the system, I would recommend playing a game or three using the hot-seat option. 
RE: I dea for new players - gabeeg - 11-24-2012 That really is an excellent suggestion, I just I would have done this as a rookie...might have saved me some grief. RE: I dea for new players - Volcano Man - 11-24-2012 Yes, actually this is how I played just about every scenario in SB:FWW (in addition to playing other people of course). And the best part about it: you always win! ;) RE: I dea for new players - Richie61 - 11-24-2012 I never played the AI. I signed up for front line service and learned from folks like Chad, Jose, Dennis and Dan
