You can run your shades on multiple machines as long as you don't behave in a way that hitech creations finds bad for the game. People seem to panic about an absense of clear cut rules as to what misbehavior is but I think its pretty obvious what you shouldn't do. E.G. resupply yourself from an enemy base with your other account.

I have never cared whether a player ran 2 accounts or more on multiple countries. Havent seen anyone stupid enogh for me to catch them either.

I want multiple options. I have done it with two that is easy. I would like to g to three.

Nothing wrong with running multiple accounts. It's what you do with them that matters.

Tunes was a one-man wrecking crew in the BOWL scenario. Nobody ever complained that I heard of.

Tunes is a class act...  :airplane:

And, what Loki said...  'It's what you do with them that matters".

Something I want to do is run multiple accounts on multiple computers. So I have a question.
 Can I do this? I want to run these accounts on the same country at all times. Since the game takes time I want to set myself up for constant action. 3 accounts constantly in support of each other. If I want to run some fighter sorties while my buffs are climbing to target no problem. Running multiple sets of troops. Coordinating bomb runs. Just on my mind want to hear feedback on it.

More kills yes...

I dont't see myself running these accounts in formation unless I  am on a bombing mission and then I might just run one and fiddle around with something else on the others.

Ideally launching from multiple locations timing runs at different alt's maximizing attacks on the same target is the goal.

You must be a really good pilot to be able to do all this.

Cool.  This thread is full of surprise.

on world of warcraft alot of people box they clone their OP system somehow and have 5 accounts running off 1 PC so what the main character does they all do at the same time this is insane because almost unbeatable unless you got a really good group to communicate with, it got worse over the years to the point they got multi classes running off this, about 8 months ago here in Aces high i was a pair of B25Hs doing this attacking a CV not seen it sense but did infact see it once.

I can think of a way it might be done off one set of hardware depending on how VMs work with things like joysticks, but can't imagine bothering with it.  I'd imagine it would be kludgy as hell, with inputs going to all vehicles currently being driven.

It could be marginally useful for operating in an area where there's no enemy presence, but just can't see it being useful in a crowd.

Wouldn't really work like WoW though, there's more to AH than targeting and clicking.  Having to orient yourself in the game makes a huge difference.
