@Booper said in L25 BM4 Simon33(L+16) vs Booper(X) #2:
Some crazy bomber-on-bomber mutual destruction
Gee, that was lucky for me. Obviously it was ill advised to do that bombing raid.
Conceptually, we have a more fluid approach with @gamerman01 covering the European theater and myself the Pacific. Either one of us could make the moves for a particular power!
dont understand. so both of you can play any power?
No. It’s like I play UK Europe, he plays Pacific. I play Russia Europe, he decides Siberia. I play US Europe, he Pacific. With, of course, agreement on how much to allocate to a theater
So some of our turns will take a bit longer than if 1 player controlled all USA and all UK, but it willbe much more like 1 of us playing P40 and the other E40.
We have distinct ownership, not just putting our heads together and controlling every power concurrently, which would almost defeat the purpose of team/allied play
I think mokawagunichi and I have conceptually similar concept. But we give more deciding power to the person controlling the power. I make wishes on what i want to achieve and vice versa
Axis is more straightforward, as the powers mostly operate in their own theaters, with some occasional cross-over.
@Booper Hey guys, I was out of town for the holiday weekend, back now. Should be able to do Japan by tomorrow.
I’m glad for the small delay. No worries from me, and thanks for the timeline

thats what I would do. Can I continue?
