is it possible to set up a bunch of games with lets say 8 specific players and have half of them always on one side and half always on the other

so if you had 2 planes, and players ABCDEFGH you would get
AB v GH
AB v FG
AB v EF
AB v HE

BC v GH
BC v FG
BC v EF
BC v HE

CD v GH
CD v FG
CD v EF
CD v HE

and

DA v GH
DA v FG
DA v EF
DA v HE

if you could easily make that then you could have a briefing room chat for each side before the planes took off and try to work on a strategy - rather than each plane just flying how they think is best.

possible strategies might include - one plane to lead and the other to fly cover - or they might be to gang up on me, or any tactical difference in the planes might mean you want to focus fire on one type of plane in preference

I quite fancy that sort of idea - dunno about the rest of you ?
