Mad multiplayer idea

[Saxon]

Here is an odd idea for multiplayer that would address some concerns about balance and which would truly test the skills of veteran players.

Each player is assigned a nation and designs a pretender for it. They then give the nation to someone else, who has to play it. Meanwhile, they are given a pretender another player had designed.

Everyone would design the worst possible pretender, with the worst possible scales, making each nation as weak as possible. They would then have to try and deal with the mess made by someone else.

Sure, there would be lots of death scales, pointless magic paths and useless pretenders. That would be the challenge, you would have to play the nation, as it is, as best you could. Only the best players will be able to thrive in such an environment.

In any case, it is an idea to bat around and, as I don’t play MP, I will not be offering to organize it, but feel free to do what you like with it. Or ignore, as you see fit!
