The "Revolution under Seige", "Admiral Kolchak's Siberian Coup and the Grand Campaign scenarios all have 3 sides (Reds, Southern White's and Siberian Whites).

From what I've read, the "Revolution under Siege" scenario is the best scenario for balance, but I've no real preference.

I'd like to play the Reds.

[biztor]

ok.

Mayor - Reds
Matto - Siberian Whites
Me- Southern Whites

I played a multi game years ago, I dont remember what files I need to send.

[Matto]

Great ... like host you must send TRN files. We will return ORD files.
I have 1.06a version, do you have the same?
And some preferred settings?

[biztor]

I have Patch 1.06a QwikFix 3, the last patch.

Then I start the game, do my turn and then save and send?
who will be the second?

[MajorMayhem]

And some preferred settings?

How does this look?

Activation rule: the middle option
Delayed commitment: medium
Attrition: standard
Extended pool: historical
Naval boxes: ?
Randomized Generals: Slight or moderate? I suggest this purely out of self-interest: the Reds are stuck with a bunch of abymal 2-0-0 leaders.

Sounds good, Naval boxes standard, Randomized Generals moderate ... no problem

Add to files generation ... you will generate new files and send to both at one time. We will return to you ...

2.5.1 Step 1: Create a game
The Hosting player chooses a Campaign/Scenario and a side and starts the game as usual. This automatically
generates a sub-folder in the C:\Program Files\Revolution Under Siege\RUS\Saves\ directory, named after the
Campaign or Scenario selected (1918 Campaign if you play the ‘1918-1923 Campaign’ scenario, for example).
Please note that a number helps differentiate between multiple instances of the same Campaign/Scenario. However,
the best way to avoid confusion is to rename the in-game Save (e.g. 1918 Campaign John vs. Joe). Do NOT rename
any RUS files externally to the game.
In this newly created folder you will find two or three TRN files, each with three letters indicating which side it
belongs to (RED, WHI or WH3).
Note: C:\Program Files\Revolution Under Siege\ is the default directory. This directory may be titled something
different if the game is installed to another location. It is also different for the different language versions of
Windows.

2.5.2. Step 2: Host Sends TRN file to Opponent(s)
The Hosting player sends his opponent(s) the TRN file with the opponent’s designation (i.e. if you play the RED,
then send the WHI and/or WH3 file to the appropriate opponent(s) ). The opponent(s) must store this file in the
folder named “Revolution Under Siege\RUS\Saves”. It is advisable to use subfolders to keep all PBEM games in
progress separate. For example, the opponent could save the TRN file under the “Revolution Under
Siege\RUS\Saves\JohnVsJoe” subfolder.
Note: In order to avoid possible data corruption during the file E-mail transfer process, it is strongly advised to EMail
the file using the Zip file and password options included.

2.5.3 Step 3: Non-Host sends ORD file to Host
Each player now loads the game and gives his orders for the upcoming turn. When ready, each player saves the
game. This will generate an ORD file (in the folders mentioned above).
Important: Do NOT click on End Turn button at this step. The Non-Hosting player then sends his ORD file to the
Hosting player.

2.5.4 Step 4: Host Resolves Turn
The Hosting player saves the ORD file received from his opponent into the appropriate directory and loads the game
again. He now clicks on End Turn button to launch the turn resolution, where all orders are then executed.
A new turn is now ready to start. Go back to Step # 2 and repeat.

Randomized Generals:moderate then?

[Matto]

I agree ...

[MajorMayhem]

Everything is fine then, unless anyone wants to suggest house rules?

Matto, I think it may be best if you host, as you seem to know what you're doing!

[Matto]

I can host if you want ... I have experience from RoP and PoN, where I hosted some games ...

I do not have any suggestion to house rules ... we should play fair play )

That's fine with me!

[Matto]

OK, I will wait for BIZTOR opinion ...

[biztor]

all fine here, you can start hosting, but now I cant play all the nights, because of chrithsmas holidays. we can start now and I play when I can, or wait until 6

[Matto]

I will start it and you can play anytime you have time

[Matto]

So it looks we finished this game now (Southern Whites were badly defeated and Reds are advancing to Siberia) and now ...

So who will join us?
