Hello All,

Hopefully you are all aware that Legions of Steel will be releasing shortly. As part of the release, the game will have a number of nerve-racking multiplayer modes.
However what you may not know is that along with this we have reviewed the PBEM system, which is fully automated and immediately highlights any irregularities with online gameplay. For example the system flags where an individual repeatedly downloads a game turns before uploading his response turn to his opponent. The danger here is that this could amount to unfair play and where this happens to excess, certain actions may be taken including removing a player’s access to PBEM either temporarily or permanently. This is part of our ongoing commitment to you, our players, to ensure that you experience a fair and enjoyable match when using the multiplayer system.

For instance: we have recently removed access to three individuals, for unexplained multiple downloads of the same game turn. The system will continue to monitor all games, to ensure that you always have a sporting and fair multiplayer experience and where necessary we will take any necessary action to ensure that this is the case. We hope that you continue to enjoy your games and will support the additional refinements that we continue to add.

Excellent news, this gives gamers confidence in using the PBEM system knowing it's a level playing field.

Is this pbem security upgrade now active in existing titles that utilise ++ or just LOS?
