@simon33 Yes, this is a very aggressive Axis approach. I did not use it much in the past; I am trying how it can work.
oysteilo and mikawagunichi vs Booper and gamerman01 (allies)
-
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
