Recommendations "MEN OF WAR"-MP-mode can freely choose their country of origin for the game?

That is, only the distinction between A; B group, each players free to choose the country of origin of the war!

I agree, this would be nice, or maybe a simple mod that allows players to choose any country/faction they want in Team A vs. Team B games.

yea, id like, maybe if you could choose a team as "allies" and then the players would choose brits or US or soviet for their own and then "Axis" and it would be japs and gerrys

Agreed. This should be in game, adds a some fun variation/faction mixing in.

Horrible idea. It would be ridiculous having Germans and Japanese or Americans and Russians on the same team, since they never fought together to any large degree. But i wouldn't mind this if the current system would stay in, where there is two teams and the host decides what nations these are made up of, if this was to be implemented.

There was a point when Germany and Russia were allies, remember? I can see this as a fun option in MP. A "what if" scenerio.

A non-aggression pact is, while a pact, not the same thing as an alliance.

Realism arguments always fail with this game. You can also play Americans versus Brits, or even Brits versus Brits. Which makes less sense then Japanese and Germans fighting side by side.
I still don't think it's a good idea though, because it screws up faction balance. Because you can have the best things of 2 factions.

But how often do you see unrealistic teams being played? I for one very rarely see that. And it is of course possible for me as a host to always play with realistic settings in that regard, and I would like to keep it that way.

Im still up for the allies team that you could choose team as either US or brits (each player could choose his side, US or british)

OK, pact. They divided up eastern Europe between them well enough. Didn't last too long though.
