Default Re: Team Game Starting

START TIME

Overview

A team game will be starting once there are enough players.
The game will be teams vs teams.

Either 2v2 or 2v2v2 or 3v3 depending who wants to play.

The following issues need to be resolved before this game may commence.

3) Port on game host machine

5) Which nations everyone is playing



House Rules

*others to be determined

Banned Nations:
0) no pop-killing dominion. (e.g. Ermor, Pan CW ) Death-3 is fine rationale: ruins the war mechanics. Why attack them when there is no gain. Neat idea. Bad for the game unless everyone is playing that type of nation.

1) Caelum. Rationale: Overpowered. Why be anything else?
