Looking to pop CW2 cherry

[rattler01]

Looking for 1st CW2 PBEM. Long time AACW PBEM player, can host. Looking for foe. Would perfer USA, but doesn't matter. These were my old AACW house rules, am willing to add or change.

Settings:
Historical Attrition
Standard Naval
3 redeployments (for spawning generals only)
Normal Foreign
No random generals
Normal activation

Raiders:

For the south: In the border states: West Virginia, Kentucky, Maryland, Delaware, and Missouri. Can raid with single units. In "non-border-states" like Illinos must take a leader and 3 units to raid. Far WEST is free-for-all.

For the north: Always the USA Player must take a leader and 3 units to raid. Far WEST is free-for-all.

Emancipation Declaration (North): Only after the USA Player had a victory after September 1862 where the northern player won 3 Morale points in single battle or the northern player has taken 3 Major cities like Vicksburg, Memphis and New Orleans.

Eastern front:

McClellan rule: McClellan (if appointed) must command the largest army in the Eastern theater until end of both "On to Richmond events" or sooner if D.C. comes under siege / major CSA victory in MD border area. (in the past this was a NM change of 5 I don't know if the game "calculator" has changed).

Because of the inbalance in auto generated units and the influence of stripted events. There should be no conflict in VA or MD until the armies have released. WV is free game.

KY: No using the Tennessee or Cumberland Rivers to invade through KY, North or South, before it has entered the war.

Hi. I am interested in getting my feet wet with CW2 PBEM. I never did get around to trying AACW as PBEM, bad timing with some life events, but I did play the old game vs the AI and I've played CW2 against the AI. I have a slight preference for the Union only because I've played a full campaign that way.

I have small children and may not be able to make a turn every day, but I expect to be able to average about 5 per week.

Your house rules seem reasonable, though I have some nits to pick. If you want to do this email me at alex@basespace.net
