Ok lets say that me and my teammate control the u.s. but i control half and he controls half. how do i move all my guys out of u.s. so he can get the points for it?

as quickly as possible.

you can fortify them to him, as well. That might make it easier.

he still has to take over the territories by eliminating your armies. so you need to fortify him what you have in the US or fortify outwards to facilitate the take over... sometimes it isn't a good idea to kill your own player to get a bonus, because you may eliminate too much of your team members army bonus. anyway, good luck!-0

Since your game is hidden by the Fog of War I can't say exactly what you need to do but the coolest part of doubles games is the team aspect. It means you can deploy your armies on your teamate's territorries and vice versa. At the end of turns you can even fortify your armies into your partner's (adjacent) territories too. Since your freestyle game has unlimited fortifications this kind of exchange is a lot easier to do.

So you don't have to move all of your armies out of the US, you can give some to your teamate (as he still has to conquer your single territories) to speed up his collecting that bonus... and if you're coming up short? He can give some back to you on his turn by deploying direct or forting to you at the end of his turn.

to be honest... since i lied earlier... just set up a multi account as quickly as possible and abuse the hell out of the baby sitting rule before any changes are made to it... ahem...-0
