Preponderance - Big Team Game! [1-2 subs needed!]

[namad]

instead of increasing gold and resources to 150% why not just take 50% of all the provinces in the game evenly distributed and slice them in half to create two similar provinces? or some such... achieving the same effect of increased resources while retaining omnirizon's ecosystematicism

I have no idea what either one of you are saying.

Huh? Not me, might have been archaeo. I have no experience with team games, and while big bless nation and its forge female dog underling is a strong combo, I'm not totally sure the bless nation could hold all fronts together when under attack from several directions.

What big resources and gold do (I assume), is mainly downplay the role of early SC pretender. It isn't said the "standard" settings would be optimal for different strategies either, proportion of gold/resources has changed heavily with each iteration of Dominions series.

We still have some places left, I hope we can get them filled that week

I'd be interested in playing. Looking for teammate.

[Zeldor]

Ok, we need 6 more then, assuming Jarkko is still interested.

Zeldor,

I know others have broached problems with the current system. First, let me say I will enjoy it if the game makes.

However, I'd really like to suggest that we go on a point bidding system. Points that you bid on the race - must be left unused on your pretender.

Additionally, perhaps you could set up 'kingdoms' on the map - 1 or maybe 2 territory size kingdoms - and let people bid on those as part of the starting position as well.

Essentially.. let everyone bid until everyone is satisfied. You only pay the points for your winning bid. So in this case Team one wins agartha, but has to leave 25 points unallocated on pretender design.

Yeah, I am still here.
