Multiplayer without Play By Mail style

[Owain]

Me and a couple of friends enjoy playing Pike and Shot together. We play at the same so the Play By Mail set-up in P&S is quite annoying. Is there any way for us to play a game together in real-time, watching each other take a move and not being required to reload the game every turn?

Hey, thanks your response but in fact I don't mean we want to hot seat. We are playing from our respective homes on our own computers, not on the same computer. We just want to watch each other take a move in real time and not have to load up the scenario over and over again.

Get a remote computer control program like TeamViewer (free for non-commercial use) and use the hot seat method described above. During your turn your opponent watches, and during your opponent's turn he takes over control of your computer and plays his turn while you watch. You will still have to load the battle after each turn, but that doesn't take too long. You can probably stream the session so other friends can watch. Steam Remote Play may work as well.

Let us know if something like this works for you.

I know FoGII has steam remote play but I don't think P&S does.
