I'm definitely up for a game. Course, it'll be a couple days till I get broadband (DSL), so it probably wouldn't be a good idea for me to play until then.
Good luck with the UK. I'd imagine multiplayer would be a nightmare with all of those convoys you have to manage.

Practice against the AI is useless. Play one or two run-throughs just to get the feel of it, and hop into MP.
As an example, I played Germany in the long campaign the other day, furious/very hard AI setting, and by mid-1938 I have conquered Poland, France, Belgium, Holland, Hungary, Austria, Denmark, Czechoslovakia, and England. All with no allies, by the way.
Have you played MP against anyone with a dialup connection? Is dialup totally not worth the effort to even try? The reason why I ask is I do not have DSL/or any other type of broadband connection. Just dialup.
If anyone else has any experience please chime in.
BTW - it's been a month now since I picked up HOI and I'm still loving it. I can only imagine how difficult and challenging it must be to play against a human.
