This is a casual 4v4 game, no report needed at the end, but if you join it is expected that you fully commit to the game. The point is to pair new players with experienced players to learn about PBEM and have fun. I need 4 new players and three more experienced players. It is expected that there will be alot of communication between teammates between turns both in game and outside of it. In order to make communication easier we will create persistent chat rooms for both teams either on battlefield, or by using hipchat or slack, or hosting an IRC. Persistent chat rooms are important for communicating with 2 or more people at varying times over a long period. It is expected of especially of experienced player to answer questions and give advice to teammates. It is expected of new players to ask questions, post theories and suggestions. It is absolutely important that this dialogue remains respectful at all times, especially from the experienced players. Players who can not do that will not be allowed back in future games. Because this game is for learning and for fun, no quit and no surrender. Play until it is entirely decided. Fight back from bad starts, miscues and other issues. This experience is more about discussing the game, and learning from every point as it is the final result.  It is my hope other experienced players will host other such Academy games.
