For those of you interested in playing Turn Based Strategy games, here is one you should give a try. It is called Hexwar and costs nothing to join. If you want to play any game other than Napoleon at Waterloo there is a fee similar to PS or WoW. Go to Hexwar and register to play as well as download the system.

Shortly after I downloaded the Napoleon at War scenario, I was challenged to a game by someone named "Keith". As it turned out, he is the guy who created the website. He is a game developer in England and defeated me quite easily. At this time, I have challenged three different people to games. Two have accepted. It is really pretty easy once you go to the website.
You don't have to sit down at one sitting and finish the game. Once you send it off to your opponent, he can make his moves and attacks at his leisure. Some time later your opponent will return it to you and you can see his moves and actions. Then it is your turn. That is how I am able to play three people at the same time.
Did I mention it is free?

Thanks guys! Now I have six active games of Napoleon at Waterloo going on. I am the Allies in 5 of them.
EDIT: (7:35 PM EST) I finished three games off and attempted to upload to the server at the same time. I have received an error message on all three games. They say: "Cannot Transfer File (Error: 426 Data connection closed, receive file 0280060517.zip aborted)
There is a different file # for each game. I have sent an E-mail to Hexwar CS. I am awaiting a response. In the mean time, my hexwar game browser is stuck in the Uploading mode. nothing is going in and nothing is going out.
I wish they would put a forum up on their website.
So far no resolution to this problem. Based on that Speakeasy speed test that red posted in general forum, I believe it has something to do with my upload speed of 360Kbps.
