You are able to play with multiple players controlling one team (Archon mode in SC2 I think). I've used it once or twice for coaching and it works pretty well.

In a team game you can gift units to allies so if one ally gets knocked out but the game isn't over then you'll often find them being given units to rebuild with.

Alternatively, maybe the navy minister could beat the army minister if there are more sailors than soldiers. It would be interesting to simulate/play the dysfunction of bureaucratic militaries...

This is already a default option in the game. And also, this is what we'd like to expand upon, f.e. in the coop-campaign.

Each player working together as one is quite the experience and different from each building their own base/having their own eco.

So do expect a lot more on this in BAR.

Zero-K/Spring has this built-in in the lobby (for instance a big "Invite Friends" button for the Campaign missions), and since BAR/Spring uses the same lobby, I'd guess it has this feature too ?
