Otherwise you will need some serious teamwork by comunicating with your allies using email.
Is this allowed in WS&IM?
Yep. Any form of comunication can be used in WSIM. While playing the ongoing Trident Cup; we use email but others have used secret codes as well. Radio was not invented but there were spyglasses so I guess the ship can read signals from each other.
Yeah, the secret coding in game communications makes sense. The ships could have communication crew to send/receive signals and forward them to the captain. Such signals could also often be seen by the enemy and mis/interpreted possibly. Email seems to go beyond that, but as long as everyone in the game is on the same page with it (allowing/disallowing) that's all that matters really.
