Suggestion: Allow MPP's to be allocated to ally/allies

[Kriegsspieler]

Hi, All --

I've been intensively playing the game with the 1.03 update against both the AI and a human opponent, and I must say it is a blast. I find that if I give the AI a small boost (+1 spotting & 5% extra MPP) it provides a nice challenge, no matter which side I play. I usually win, but it's a hell of a fun ride getting there, and no two games play out exactly the same way, which is about all one can ask of a game such as this one. I think the +1 spotting in particular is a significant aid to the AI in naval operations. It discourages the AI from placing ships in obviously vulnerable positions as often as it otherwise tends to do

Anyway, I have a small suggestion. It would be nice if the game allowed allies to allocate MPPs resulting from conquest to allies. This came to mind when Italy DOWed Yugoslavia, an Italian unit actually took Belgrade, yet when the dust settled it was Germany that got the plunder and the permanent addition to their MPP production. This is not a game-breaking flaw, but I believe it would be nice to be able to choose which country actually receives the rewards when a country such as Yugoslavia is taken.

I think the MPP will go to Italy if Italy has Belgrade occupied when you hit "end turn". At least it was like that in WIE.

That's what happens to me. I even had Italy get the Plunder from France

hmm . . . ok, thanks. I must have moved the Italian unit through Belgrade without stopping.
Evidence again that it pays to stop and smell the roses! [:D]

A pop-up question where the player wants the MPP to go wouldn't be wrong.

I wouldn't mind a popup asking which nation will control it. Let's say a German unit captured Cairo, but I may wish to give it to Italy.

I always make sure that I get the "right" unit to occupy a capital before the turn ends, but yeah: An option of choice would be nice.
