One thing which may help is to post one picture of your setup and ask for feedback. I did that in this
Fall of France #11 and received very useful feedback from veteran players.
Another thing which might be interesting is to say which scenario you will play next and ask how players would set up the defensive side. Do allow a few days in that case.
And last, if you are interested in a veteran versus newcomer game over Skype, just start a thread indicating you interest. I expect you would get several responses.
(And where is Vince with his promised article explaining how to play over Skype?)
