Cautionary note.    Smile

Lead players, screen recordings, voice/chat programs, 3-4 players per side... your campaign game is ballooning into an unwieldy and super complex endeavor.   Yikes

I suggest you boil the complexity down to a more manageable simmer!  Wink

Proposed Structure:

- Two players per side. (Two Allies / Two Germans)
- Use Google Docs to store current turn file. 

Example of turn sequence:

(1.) German Player 1 moves his units / conducts battles. Does NOT end turn and uploads turn file to his Google Docs. Provides password (For German players only) to German Player 2. 

(2.) German Player 2 clicks on URL link to file in Google Docs, enters password, and downloads turn file to his PC. German Player 2 has set number of days to move his units / conduct battles. German Player 2 moves his units / conducts battles. Ends turn and sends turn file to Allied Player 1.

(3.) Allied Player 1 uploads turn file to his Google Docs (For Allied players only) and provides password for Allied Player 2. Both Allied Player 1 and Allied Player 2 have a set number of days to download and review the turn replay. 

(4.) Allied Player 1 clicks on URL link to file in Google Docs, enters password, and downloads turn file to his PC. Allied Player 1 moves his units / conducts battles. Does NOT end turn and uploads turn file to his Google Docs. 

(5.) Allied Player 2 clicks on URL link to file in Google Docs, enters password, and downloads turn file to his PC. Allied Player 2 has set number of days to move his units / conduct battles. Allied Player 2 moves his units / conducts battles. Ends turn and sends turn file to German Player 1.

(6.) German Player 1 uploads turn file to his Google Docs (For German players only). Both German Player 1 and German Player 2 have a set number of days to download and review the turn replay. 

Repeat Turn Sequences 1 - 6 until game end.


Advantages:

- Two players per side reduces complexity and eliminates need for CinC.
- A set number of days for players to conduct their turns helps facilitate and expedite turn exchanges. 
- Google Docs eliminates need for screen capture recordings and voice/chat programs. All players will have the opportunity to watch turn replays.

 I think the first part of (4) is redundant as Player 1 already has the turn file on his PC?
Otherwise this is a pretty workable plan using google rather than emails to keep turns moving.

The point of the screen capture is to reduce fatigue/boredom. Sitting through 30 minutes of replay just to catch the 5 minutes which interest you is not fun but tedious. Each player should install their own software and record the replay just for their own sanity. 
Even better if the first player of each team did it then loaded it to the Google so that the team could play and watch it without having to make their own recordings. Any media player will open and play it.
