It would be -one- game against the both of us. Knavey likes to run the US, and I play UK, Dutch, Oz, and pretty much everything else. Essentially, you'd send the completed turn to either of us (say for instance, me), I make my moves, send the "un-ended" file to Knavey, he makes his moves, ends the turn, and sends it to you. Of course, if you want a team-mate, that works too. It's just a matter of slowing the game down a bit, because the file has got to be punted around. But it also makes for an interesting dynamic. Be advised our "advantage" is that Knavey and I really are brothers, live in nearby towns, and -do- get on the phone every night to discuss/argue over strategy. It -is- an advantage because we're not constrained by short emails of "what are we gonna do about...?" We usually can do a turn every other day (because it sometimes takes us the extra day to punt it back and forth). Your taking a week is fine. To be honest, I'm not positive that Knavey has time to play a second game (gotta ask). But his work schedule should slack off a bit after Thanksgiving, so he might be up for it. If it ends up a decline, then you've still got your Turn 1 done, and can punt it to whomever you like. Options are pretty much up in the air for us. If you Jap Sup Doctrine is on, then Allied Sup Doctrine should be on. I don't think we care about historical starts or anything else. We play fairly conventionally, and frankly, I don't really care about house rules (beat us any way you can I say). Most house rules tend to handicap the IJN player (IMHO), and frankly IJN needs all the help they can get. But if there's something you're concerned about, best to mention it in the open to start. What else...? Number of days per turn? 2 is fine with me (not Knavey's preference tho). But I know one takes forever. Your thots? Blah, blah, blah. We've got a week to hash this out. -F-
