Tony,

Would love to playa game.  I've not played much PBEM, and never CS.  I started playing ACW by email because the AI in JT games is so very bad and, the ACW series in particular seems far worse than most.  I joined a club because I hadn't played much of Tiller's ACW and didn't understand the period tactics like I do WW II and more modern stuff.  With more time to play during this pandemic, I found this the perfect time to start.  I've certainly found PBEM far more exciting than playing the AI

Fortunately, I have been able to work during most of this time.  Unfortunately for my gaming, my job eats up most of my time.  I'm working on a large construction project which has an extremely tight schedule.  Due to the pandemic and recent weather, it's quite far behind schedule.  I can no longer count on free weekends and many days run 12-14 hours.  For the near-term, it looks like my off days will be whenever weather (like today) shuts us down.  

Still, if you don't mind a slow game, with uncertain turn-around, I'm happy to play.  I have most everything by Tiller (and CSME).  Like I said above, CS has been my favorite since the beginning.  I've likely picked up many bad habits from years of playing solely against the AI, but I do have a thorough understanding of the game.

Like you said, I generally play with the top 4 OR's although I've started playing with EA more often because I generally play as the attacker and I feel it gives the AI a slight bonus as defender.  I never play with VV unless the scenario explicitly calls for it.
