The attachment doesn't contain any rules as they are still being written out. What I attached was a description of the process that players will need to know/do in order create the battle file (based on their mission) and to accurately purchase their assigned OOB for the battle itself. Yo need to be a little familiar with the Editor in order to do it.

I am checking on some things as they may require the CD version BUT if it does, we can work around that for those with only the DL version. IF you or anyone else reading through this, wants to play some interesting custom battles against the AI and as a member of a team, in a campaign like environment this might be worth jumping in on.

If you do have any questions please just ask.

I could actually get this rolling with only 4 players (2x US and 2x German) for playtesting and working out the kinks.

I have most of the rules written down on paper but not in an electronic format. In truth, players will not need to know much of the inner workings except for the overall victory objective/conditions and what they need to do to play their battle. There is no strategic overlay/map and no replacement system. I will review the end game files and determine each units OOB available for the next battle (these will be adjusted so that they are "purchasable" in the WinSP Editor).

Players will only really be required to generate and play their battles and then provide me with the end game save file. They will also be required to write and send me a small AAR (nothing detailed) and maybe post some screenshots here for any lurkers enjoyment.

This would be the 901st Panzer Grenadier Regiment, Panzer Lehr Div (2 Battalions) for the Germans and Combat Command B, 4th Armored Div (2 Battalions) for the Americans. Both forces would have Armor mixed in with their Armored Infantry so each players would start with a mixed Armor/Infantry force.

I am looking at 3 rounds for the playtest campaign so that means 3 battles vs the AI for each player, probably 30 turn battles.
