Can you play campaigns via email?? In this or Marines module?

[RuhrRiver]

I did a search and came up with 'way too many threads to search through--and, none of the titles looked like they dealt with the issue of whether, if you start a campaign as an email game with an opponent, if subsequent battles after the first one will continue in email mode, and, where branching is allowed or there are other "carry-over" consequences, if the branching or consequences apply to both opponents.

Is that sufficiently unclear? :confused:

Easy there big fella! I had a few too many last night.

Wow, that's quite an illegible post you have there. Try dialling it down?

The campaign that comes with cmsf is single player only...

You can, in theory, play campaigns as 2-player, but the stock campaigns for CMSF and CMSF:Marines are designed primarily with single player (as Blue vs. Red AI) in mind, so it may be terribly unbalanced. However, it is possible for scenario makers to create 2-player campaigns if they wish to do so (including campaigns where losses/wins for both sides are carried over; the campaign core file can have core units for both sides - in fact, it does for some of the missions in the Marines campaign).

Thanks for all the responses to that poorly-worded question, and especially, thanks Moon! for the hopeful reply.

How would one go about playing the stock campaign as 2-player?
