Default Re: Coop PBEM Play

A PBEM is played you against him.

You could for example decide that Bill Joe and Fred each play a company in the USA side, and 3 others the same on the Russian.

Bill would start the USA turn, and do his thing with his forces. Pass the save once he has done his units moves onto Joe who does the same, and then on to Fred. USA turn now complete, send to the first player on the Russian list. Russian 3 then work through the Russian turn.

This could not be played in secure mode of course, since the registry information on the ongoing secure game is not able to be passed to another player on another machine. So basic security mode only.

Also, I am not sure if the replay would work, being passed along like this. You would need to experiment.

And there is nothing to stop one of the USA team players from moving a team-mate's pieces other than self-control. Who handles the "support" troops, like ordering air-strikes and arty?.

You would need to play around with it to see if such works for you, as it is certainly not the way the game is intended to be played. But it may be doable.
