Tip: Online whiteboard for MP coordination

[Missing In Action]

Hi all
I thought I would use my first post on something that might be more useful than just me saying Hi.

I'm pretty new to Dom but have played some SP and a single MP CO-OP against 4 AI.

As we tried to coordinate where to attack and generaly helping each other out, I thought it would be nice to have a complete overview over our combined intelligence gathed. So I started up a new game on the same map and captured a image of the complete map. Then i uploaded it to an online whiteboard and gave my friend access.

You can see it here:

- Circle is ownership.
- Gray is independents, rest is color of nation except pink, which stand for the other shade of green
- square is fortification
- Triangle is noteworthy army
- arrow is army movement.

It was a great tool for us and I thought it might even be fun to use in real MP game as a way of helping out allies, and you might even use it to "plant" false information if thats your game.

Anyway, thank you for all the information already gathered here, I'm learning a lot from it.

Very nice site. This seems like it could be very useful, especially for team games. Thanks!

EXCELLENT. And thanks for the clear example of its use in a Dom game.

Keep in mind that we also have a CHAT feature on the menu here. It accepts IRC commands, and you can open a chat room for each game to allow some fun blitz games with lots of oohs and aahs as things progress.

That is extremely cool.
