Depends on which side you pick.

If you pick the side that moves first for the scenario, then you move first.... if you pick the side the moves second, then your opponent moves first.

There is a great explanation at the Blitz war gamers site.
Check out http://www.theblitz.org/index.php
This takes you to home page. Look under G-1/ ADMIN "training grounds" and it goes into great detail on how to proceed with PBEM.

I joined the site years ago & have enjoyed it greatly. You can find rookies as well as vets. Sign up on the forum & the members will answer other questions.

PBEM is a RUSH!!!

Good luck.

Status: offline 		Thanks Crossroads. I read through it but don't see where we are going wrong. We aren't using passwords, but don't think that should matter really. We'll try the next exchange with passwords however, just to follow along I guess.
