Does it depend on the scenario, or do you folks express a preference for one side over another? As an American, I have a built-in bias towards playing as the Colonials, our modern "special relationship" with the Mother Country notwithstanding.

Disclaimer: for those of you who know me from the Matrix forum, I've long expressed admiration for certain "factions", so this should come as no surprise.

I'm terribly biased

I like to play either side.

As part of the 'team', I've advocated 'replay value' in scenario and campaigns.

To me, this means enough variability [without losing the history] to make any given side/scenario worth repeating to see what else can happen

--and--

Making both sides 'rich enough' in things to see and try to want to replay as the 'other side'

Having said that:
I enjoy Early Colonists, GBR in the FIW, USA otherwise a teeny bit more

I like the French on the French and indian wars and the British on the American independence war
I suppose i find the losing side more interesting, as i use to play the CSA on AACW

See! This is why we are (could be?) perfect PBEM opponents, we have the exact opposite preferences

Of course we are!
The fact that not a single turn had been sent between us ever does not mean we are not perfect PBEM mates!
I hope you will hear form me before the month ends!

Indeed!

I usually like to play the side that has lost the conflict and try to be more successful.
