Hi and welcome

The game is only designed for two players - one for Axis and one for Soviet. I do arrange team side (Co-op side) games for the game but it does take a fair bit of infrastructure and some house rules to make it work. If you would like to know more, or even join one, send me a message.

PBEM is where you make saves of the game to your hard disk and then send them to your opponent for example by email. It is password protected so you should not be able to see your opponents side nor they see yours beyond what is visible even in fog of war.

Slitherine server/ PBEM++ actually has nothing to do with PBEM or even saves of the game to your hard disk. The program instead synchs the state of your game to a server hosted by Slitherine. This can for instance make it more difficult to do reloading of a game to get an advantage against your opponent. Only two people can ever play a server game because of the terms and conditions of the server and the potential to be banned if you share a log in with someone else.
