Ignore the "security violation" warning for PBEM - all you have to do is start a generated battle, you don't have to change anything. Just start a generated battle and you may - as I do - get a "violation" on every turn. No OOB corruption, everything fine and as it should be with the game. So much was done to the PBEM routine is is close to unplayable in some aspects. For instance, it is quite possible the second player will not see his artillery in action - the so-called "VCR playback" is useless in this respect. Takes a lot of the fun out of play, for me it does. I start to lose interest. The entire idea of mortars onboard is that fire is available NOW, not a week from now. Show me an experienced mortar man, up to 82mm size, that could not have set up and been in action within seconds - literally seconds - if the crew wasn't capable they would have been replaced. But no, in WAW not even direct targeting works in PBEM. A farce. Bing
