I'll add an "Item 7" as an addendum to my earlier "curriculum", based on something I just posted on another website...

To get a feel for the online Friday night game, check out the videos of some recent TGIF sessions uploaded by one of the participants (Rotar): Rotar's YouTube page

N.B. that the Friday night game is more informal (i.e., informal radio procedures; loose command hierarchy; real-world doctrine generally not employed; relatively brief planning phases, etc.) than the multiplayer missions conducted by some of the VUs. For an example of some of the more "structured" MP sessions, have a look at the videos posted from the United Operations VU: UO SB videos

Also, SB veteran "Cobrabase" has uploaded dozens of videos from his single-player sessions: Cobrabase's YouTube page

He gives the user interface a good workout, so it's helpful in gaining familiarity with the numerous tools at your disposal, as well as some of the AI drawbacks, etc. A number of other SB users have uploaded their own videos, but Cobrabase's is the most extensive collection, as far as I know

MDF,

Thx for this. I have copied and pasted into our forums for myself (getting back into SBPPE) and a couple of new guys getting interested.

great way to start off.
