With my creative juices still flowing, wanted to share some ideas about game 3:
I'll likely either reduce team size to 3, or remove 1 team due to the difficulty in recruting/retaining large numbers of players over lengthy periods.
Some theme ideas for game 3:
3 realms:
Heavenly Realm - Paths: Astral, Air, Water
Possible Thematic Nations: Caelum, Midgard, Man, TC
Example Pretenders: Virtue, Shedu, Oracle, Male/Female Titan, Lord of the Sky, Lady of Fortune, Son of the Heavens, Daughter of the Dawn, Father of Winters, Blue Dragon, etc.
Earthly Realm - Paths: Earth, Nature, Water
Possible Thematic Nations: Pangaea, Agartha, Ulm, Patala
Example Pretenders: Cyclops, Great Mother, Mother of Lions, Great White Bull, Gorgon, Colossal Fetish, Wyrm, Green Dragon, etc.
Underworld Realm - Paths: Fire, Blood, Death
Possible Thematic Nations: Abysia, Marignon, C'tis, Utgard
Example Pretenders: Moloch, Vampire Queen, Fountain of Blood, Prince of Death, Solar Disc, Baphomet, Ghost King, Lord of the Gates, Red Dragon, etc.
Collegium Arcanum (Rainbow magic theme) - Paths: Multiple and Varied
Possible Thematic Nations: Arco, TC, Jomon, Mictlan
Example Pretenders: Lord of Rebirth, Lawgiver, any other large pretender with native magic in three or more paths, all 10 magic path cost rainbow pretenders, etc.
Gandalf's AI: Theme: Genocide
The complete and final annihilation of all human players.
