HOW TO: Play single player scenarios co-operatively with a friend remotely.

[WimO]

The following tells you how to play scenarios as two-player co-operatively using the PBEM system. The sequence below is crucial to ensuring that both players will be watching the same combat results. One player will initiate the 'GO' for the turn and the other will be watching the replay. Here we go then...

TWO-PLAYER CO-OP PLAY SEQUENCE

PLAYER ONE:

1. [Skip steps 1 through 3 on the first turn of the game.] Press the small REPLAY arrow button at the top of the panel. (You have now watched the same outcome as Player Two.)

2. At the end of the replay the screen says ‘DONE”

3. End the turn by pressing the ‘GO’ button (the big red button at the bottom).

4. Give your movement and shooting orders.

5. Save.

6. Email to Player Two. 

PLAYER TWO:

7. Give your movement and shooting orders.

8. Press "GO" (the big red button at the bottom) to run the turn

9. After the computer plays the turn and the screen says ‘DONE’, SAVE the game immediately. DO NOT "END" the turn by pressing the big red button again.

10. Email to Player One.

Just to clarify are you playing co op against the AI? If so that's not "using the PBEM system". You can play two vs two (or n vs m) in PBEM using a similar technique though.
