Play in Hodito

[Bob]

Hey,

I am considering playing Hodito but only speak English.

I have been offered help with the language problem by a couple of honest hungarian Q players ... that barrier will be hard but am willing to try.

I have an important question concerning the rules on Hodito VS Q

I have been told by a couple of hungarian Q players that in Hodito it is permissible for an alliance member or friend to log into your country and do a few things for you. Sharing passwords is of course needed.

They told me specifically that a friend/ally can log into your country when you are not around and do the following:

Cast any spells except offensive spells on another country.
train men
use the markets to buy and or sell

They told me that they use this "feature" to make sure each others countries are well fed; spells are kept on, men don't overflow their space in barracks, inns, etc; and most disturbing to me that they buy archers and cast defense spells if they see an enemy attacking their friend/ally. Basically the only limit to this "feature" is that they don't do any offensive actions against other countries while they are *helping* out their friend/ally.

This behavior is not legal in Q.

2 questions:

1. Is this behavior indeed legal in Hodito ?

2. Are there any other rules in Hodito that are significantly different than Q?


Thanks in advance for any help.
