Hello just looking for anyone interested in a PBEM game with CMBN, CMRT, or CMFB. I have mostly played SP but have played a few PBEM games.

Hi, I'm up for CMRT game, CMBN also fine. I can currently do max 1-2 turns per day, dropbox preferred (cmhelper)
Hi sure RT is fine. Feel free to do the setup, I'm good with any side, any battle type. I have mostly played SP through my CM years, so PBEM is relatively new to me. I could probably do 1 turn per day - maybe two. My dropbox email is wrist.retreat.blood.rail.fit@addtodropbox.com. Is cmhelper your dropbox email?
Sure , I'll set this up. I'll play Soviets. Any preference for game size, meeting engagement or attack/defend?
I mean I use CMHelper to handle file transfer so dropbox is easiest to set up for me

Do you have Fire&rubble module?
No I don't have Fire & Rubble - I could get it if it's worth it. I have dropbox but never used it for PBEM I usually just used normal email. So I'm not familiar with cmhelper. Should I get it? What does it do? No preferences as far as attack/defend, engagement type, but no huge battle size 
When I play SP I usually do probe, attack, or meeting engagement. I'm busy so smaller more manageable battles work best for me.

I'm just not sure how the new units behave since you don't have the addon. I shared the dropbox folder and set up the game, medium meeting engagement. I hope thats manageable Please check that you can access the file and it works
CMHelper is a community made tool that monitors shared game folders and automatically copies outgoing/incoming game files, so no manual file handling is needed. Can play without but makes life a lot easier.

Don't I get a link to the folder?
I shared it with the email to gave, I should show up on your dropbox. If not, here's the link
Ok for some reason the email didn't work (wrist.retreat.blood.rail.fit@addtodropbox.com) but your link did. The file is not showing up in game - I think it may be because of the fire & rubble pack - I will download that module and try it again.
I installed red Thunder but your file does not show up
Having Tech issues opened a ticket with Battlefront - Fire and Rubble content not showing up. I will let you know - I may have to reinstall.
I checked that it shows up if I copy 001 to my incomings files. Do you have 2.11 patch installed?
oops - no. Let me install the patch!
Ok that worked - thank you. Give me a bit for my turn. Do I just copy the outgoing file back to your dropbox? Sorry I am a bit dropbox illiterate.
Ok I uploaded the file.
F&R is totally worth it. The Berlin map alone will probably blow your mind. The Berlin master maps are two out of like 20 that you get with the module. Btw 2nd module is about to release any day now and that should add another 20 master maps. The modules for CM are always fucking insane. Though, I have to say I was left disappointed by the modules for CMFI. Thats it though.
Here are the maps, I combined them in MS paint. Theyre two separate maps, and you can see in the center that a section is repeated. Thats because both maps overlap a little, so you can use them together, despite them being separate.
Images 1,2 are one map. Images 3,4 are the second. The 5th image is both maps slapped together in MS paint.

Just like that, just copy new files to shared folder.Ok that worked - thank you. Give me a bit for my turn. Do I just copy the outgoing file back to your dropbox? Sorry I am a bit dropbox illiterate.
Got the file and I'll get this started today.
No other artillery rules expect no preplanned arty to deployment zones?
That is insane! I have the module now. Ok agree no pre-planned.
