It looks good. I don't have it yet.

Tommy Lobster has it and thinks highly of it. Lovely graphics. And it has the English (British) Civil War.

To quote him
For pbem games Matrix have a system where you create an account on their server to find opponents, when you finish a game turn it automatically sends the file to their server to be picked up by your opponent, it doesn’t actually use emails.

RE: Pike & Shot ?
I know nothing about the Matrix servers or any other company's servers however, from my POV games that use servers are only good while there is a supported server to play on. Five to eight years from now, will there still be a supported server to play these games on? I guess time will tell.

Because of "longevity issues" that is why I favor good old PBEM. 5-8 years down the road, I know that I still will have the option to play my games, if I choose to.

Having gotten Pike and Shot, would anyone be interested in a review comparing the HPS M&P and Slithene P&S games?

I think they have each some advantages and disadvantages and both highly worth getting.

I have it and it's a good game. It would definitely be worthy of a place here.

Pike and Shot and its expansion Tercio to Salvo are no longer available. They have been replaced by Pike & Shot: Campaigns.
