Question on hotseat games

Hi All
Quick question. As in the case with "Pike & Shot Campaigns" can you play this game hotseat by setting up a pasword protected challenge and then accepting it yourself ?

Kind regards
Ian

Hotseat campaign feature in FOG II Midlevel

Hi I recently discovered by accident that the ability to fight campaign battles against a human opponent using hotseat is built in FOG II Midlevel. Although not surprisingly it does not look as if you include earlier armies accessed via the “Time Warp” module in this feature. Is there any prospect o...

Really looking forward to the release of this game, and pleased to see that Hastings will be one of the scenarios that will ship with the initial release.
