Who owns and plays this title from Ageod? Personally I know of Gene Renna, Joe Bukal, Mark Nelms, and myself. Three Brits and one Frog. Anybody else? I wonder if we might get a MP together.

I own it, it was a gift some time back. I haven't even had time to install it or get into it at this point.

Keep me in mind for later, perhaps once I've learned the basics.

What is the learning curve on getting the hang of the system?

I own it.

PBEM seems a little clunky when compared to HPS. I still have not got my head around the game mechanics.

I think it's pretty intuitive and easily learned by doing, though reading the manual helps to better grasp some basic concepts. Supply and coherence are more important concepts than in BoA(1) though, i.e. armies are less able to just keep going and have to rest and resupply often.

I play it, and have already crossed swords with Joe & Gene.

I bought it recently and am slowly, actually very slowly, learning it against the AI. Probably not ready for an MP game against experienced players at this stage, but would consider a game against another novice.
