I have read those books as well and find them to be a good source of information. Then again, I am not a historian and would be hard pressed to argue any particular point. I would be interested in hears of other books along the same lines, however, that give a particularly Canadian view point. Suggestions? Not sure if there is a resource that we can readily turn to to identify the Canadian OOB other than the official histories. Again, I am no historian, just an arm-chair general who does like to read.

Ok. Let me pose a couple of follow-up questions. 1) What scenerio characteristics should I be looking for in my first PBEM game? Length? Size? Forice composition dynamic? 2) How many single-player scenerios should I play through - and what ones would be recommended - to avoid noobish mistakes? 3) According to the Peng-self-luv thread I can not mention in passing in that thread that I am looking for a game. So's how's one suppose'ta strike up a non-intrusive game wit dem homies?

How about "The No Man's Land PBEM Luv" thread?

Oh I still find those threads a good read

So what is the difference between the two groups - besides the banter that is? * hoping the question does not offend one's grog-religion sensibilities) *

You guys (gals?) in the Peng and Cherry Waffle threads scare me

Ok. I am new. That much should be obvious. :cool: But I have been following this series for a while, tried my hand at the store bought CM2:B2B and finally broke down and bought CM3:Afrika Corps. Compared to the knowledge shown in these forums I am new but not completely green but I am looking to learn how to be better - and to better understand the many aspects of tactical warefare presented in these games and forums. So I am looking for my first PBEM game - and I am looking for opponents who are willing to explain what I did wrong and what I did right in our engagements so that hopefully I can get better. Could anyone point me in the right direction for my quest?

I'd like a copy as well, if possible. Send it to dwpenney@nbnet.nb.ca Does anyone know where I might be able to dig up similar reports for Canadian Forces in Italy? PS: Thanks a lot for pulling me out of my lurker status. I was quite happen there.
