Wow, how many extra "turns" or emails does Phased play require? I thought Phased play would only double the email count, but after seeing the rulebook for the War of 1812 it turns out to be a lot more!
It's not as bad as it sounds, and there is a way to get the phased play effects without having to do any extra email exchanges.
Have a look at this thread where I asked a few resident experts about it: https://www.theblitz.club/message_boards...?tid=72378
It works as described and plays well. I'm an old opponent of Steel God's (Hi Paul!), and it's the only way we've ever played the ACW titles.
Tom is being modest and in fact was the one who taught me this method. I have experimented with non-phased play in other games and the experience was disappointing. Phased play for ACW is the only way IMHO.
