Re: NaV II Under Construction. Now Recruiting Noobs and Intermediates!
 

I'll play with StaggerLee and 13lackGu4rd, sign me up. If we don't find an appropriate captain though I may drop. Team Sanguinarium: Killing chicks for fun and profit. There will be BLOOD (lots)!

Re: NaV II Under Construction. Now Recruiting Noobs and Intermediates!
 

Hey Sept. I recently failed miserably in an all blood nation game. If the Sanguinarium still needs a noob, I'd like to join up.

Alright Pyg welcome back, I'm putting you in the Lieutenant/intermediate slot on the Sanguinarium (I believe you've reached the 1 year threshold and have probably got enough experience to go intermediate).

Stagger, you can have the last noob slot on the Sanguinarium. All your team needs then is a captain, either another intermediate or vet. Or, if you get another noob, that would catapult Pyg to the captaincy. :D

Game note: I may reduce the insta-win VP threshold from 22 to 20 out of 33 to make that victory condition a bit easier. A few minor tweaks to the Team and Themes.pdf may be forthcoming (regarding the merc and gold, etc). Gandalf has the option of Mictlan or T'ien Chi' for the AI team. Either one will work as they both are rainbow type nations with decent air access and a small air gem income. Mictlan leans a bit more toward nature, but both have nature capable mages as well.

I've been asked by the Sanguinarium if they could start using the team forums. I've agreed. As teams fill up, any team who wants may do likewise (though you may wish to wait for more overall players). Anyone rejoining us from NaV I already has accounts on the forum, new players just need to register. The forum link is below and is also posted on the opening post of the thread:

We are still in need of captains. At the very least someone to act as a representative for the team when hiring the services of the Atlantean Mercs, for the third victory option, and as the contact person with regard to any inter-team diplomacy the team wishes to engage in.

Remember, while the game gives teams the option of engaging in diplomacy with other teams, your team can certainly choose to play it straight the whole way through and perhaps save yourselves some extra communication work. The VPs will also tend to discourage any long term alliances.

Pyg and Co, you guys are good to go on the team forums.

Re: NaV II:Under Construction. Combo Comp Stomp, Team Game, & Scenario. Enlisting!
 

Hmm, sept, fyi, my interest in the game (playing) was strictly limited to mictlan.

Re: NaV II:Under Construction. Combo Comp Stomp, Team Game, & Scenario. Enlisting!
 

Understood, I know you are a fan of Mictlan. I believe Abysia to be a better fit for the blood team though, that is with Ashdod in, without Ashdod, Mictlan on the Sangiunarium is probably the best lineup for the blood team that could be constructed within the theme framework.

Following up an idea expressed in the below thread:

http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showp...1&postcount=27

What do you all think of giving captains the option of disbanding the team or even of allowing individual team members the option of becoming free agents or solo players like the merc? I could add a free agent column to the team roster setup to make tracking this a bit easier.

Of course the focus of the game is on team identity, cohesion, and working together through thick and thin (thus the themes), but it would give more freedom to individual players and/or more power to captains though they'd have a harder time of it vs teams that stay together. I could institute an alternative VP condition for the newly solo'ed player or could leave the VP requirements as they are to discourage the would-be solo player from going it alone. The actual need to do this with the captain already having the ability to drop players is questionable but having either option might be nice.
