The key to playing the Talonsoft games, with 6 exchanges per turn, is to play a lot of them at the same time. I had at one time 10 games going at once. I liked the medium sized scenarios ( 1-3 Corp per side) and could turn almost all my turns within 24 hours. Defemsive and offensive fire phases usually took less than 10 minutes from opening the email to hitting send. I had more than one day where I got 4 turns done in under 20 minutes! If all you were interested in was Borodino this didn't work as well. But I had a lot of fun and you finish games this way.

My advice to the newbies - don't just play the monster battles. I like the medium sized best.

Vive Le Emperor!

There are several things that can be improved about the games. Are the new releases updated already, or do you have to go through the tedious process of installing, updating, doing the second update then upgrade to 32 bit?

Did you contact Matrix about that? I am sure that they would want to know if a Trojan Horse was on their site.
