If your opponent is buying DD’s with the USA it is unlikely you are playing 2nd edition. You should post on the correct forum to make sure you are receiving the best advice.
Playing by E-mail?

I was wondering, since most of my family doesn’t play this game, I heard u could play by E-mail or on these forums. I just don’t get how its possilbe with dice rolling and other thing. Could someone explain so I can start playing? by the way, I’m a student so i could only play Fridays and Saturdays and night time on some days if anyone is interested. By the way, I’m Kevin and I am new to this game so any help is appreciative! Thanks!

This web site takes care of all the rolling for both the sides:
You simply plug in your e-mail address and your opponents. Next, you plug in the territory you’re attacking, your units and your opponent’s units. Then, Dicey rolls for you and e-mails the results for each round to both you and your opponent – simultaneously. You way to cheat.
You will also need to download MapView and the A&A module for it.
Here is the link for MapView:

This is the A&A module for MapView (which you will need too):

This should get you started!

Thanks a lot, i do not know how to use map view, do i have to register it to play? can i play against computer too? how do i use it. Thank-You!

No … you don’t have to register – just download it and play. You can’t play against the computer – only other people. I suggest that you download everything first and then review everything. After that, ask what questions you still have.

Don’t forget about the premier PBEM clubs: AAMC and IAAPA. AAMC is free and IAAPA charges a minimal fee. Both clubs have their own dice rollers (AAMC’s is provided above) and very experienced players. If you are interested in finding out how you rank against good PBEM A&A players, I would recommend checking out these clubs. The good thing about these clubs is that you can play against an opponent of any desired skill level.
