      Can I ask you a really dumb question - where do we assign nations to players?

      I didn't see anything in game setup nor after the game load.

      This is nothing to be done within the software. You agree who plays which power. And when it is for example Japan's turn the player who chose Japan does the turn for Japan.

      Don't always trust TripleA when it comes to rules questions. Know the rules before you start … and better check what TripleA has done.

        Hi Ozzy

          Ahh gotchya - so it really is more like playing on a boardgame that everyone is sitting around except the only difference is PBEM. Guess old habits on 42 online AA where you each get a turn set in. Appreciate the timely clarification.

              Example - if I play Russia and end the turn & not it's my friend, i'm not blocked from doing stuff as Germany but won't naturally as it's his turn versus AA online 1942 where it's restricted. Except in lobby where you have to assign a nation. While i'm at it and I swear i'll stop asking questions - any way to get full screen versus windowed view?

                Yea so with play by forum you set up the 2 emails, register to dice server and game on.

                At end of turn hit turn summary ctrla ctrlc and then save game. Post to your game thread or send a private email.

                I'll dig up a example in a bit by Victory with detailed instructions

                          thank you both - i guess i have been trying to setup play by email. Is that harder to do versus by forum? I guess i'm still a bit unclear with PBEM. I don't assign a nation but we agree to it informally. So if I say I'm Russia I play my turn, hit done then Germany is up. So my friend plays but I can still move stuff around - is that working as designed or somehow I set it up incorrectly? Maybe I should try the forum route. Appreciate the openness. We started playing Axis and Allies in 1986 so that kinda dates me a bit.

                            Just tried to go with the forum option and created a new post under play by forum (4402).

                            but when I try to Test post i received the following:
