What's a Greenhorn General to do?

[Compass Rose]

Rick,

I too, am not one for peeking at the enemy setups. When it is my turn to pick a battle to play, against my PBEM friends, I go 100% off of the description, and hope for the best. I don't agree with peeking ahead of time, since I would view this as "cheating" since I would now know where my enemy is at and what type of units he has. If I wanted to know this ahead of time, I'd just play my games with no FOW. Doing this would take alot of the fun out of playing a game.


Rick & Ed,

Are you guys suggesting to open a new game and in the setup, set both players as manual control, to be able to look?


Thanks
