Yep, that's the beauty of direct connect for team games. As long as you use the same team password (to make things easier, the shorter the better), any member should be able to view/play any other members turns easily. You could actually select all of the nations in the game if you are the admin or know the passwords and view/play them all offline. When a sub is needed there's no need to change a nation's e-mail address (and the have to change it back) via the Llamaserver menu.
Of course probably the same thing can be accomplished via PBEM with a common/shared team e-mail address or e-mail forwarding (I think Llamaserver lets you use the same e-mail addresses for different nations, but I am not sure, been awhile). But why move files around and worry about e-mail attachments when/if you don't have to?
Wrana and Chris thanks for your input on game 3.
Wrana, old enemies of course doesn't mean they can't be on the same team if they are thematically similar. Its sorta of a clash between Good/Evil with the Earth realm someone in the middle.
Atlantis could reprise their role as the merc if desired, assassins can be added easily via .map file or mod, though a rainbow nation might suit them better.
Chris, if I use another random land map, I may choose to exclude R'lyeh (and Atlantis starts on land in LA anyway).I will be sure to pepper in some mountain and freshwater masks though and perhaps a few underground lakes. Or I can look for a suitable pre-made map that includes an even distribution of sea provinces.
