Default Re: Chaos vs Order?

Well I am very interested however you split the teams. I would suggest you keep the player numbers small - even if the game map is slightly larger if you want a long game - you want to get to tartarians & abominations for the theme surely?

This is because with only two sides you want all players to have a front line. It won't be much fun for the player who is surrounded only be his own side and just ends up as a gem & magic item factory! And rememeber that even if you place people next to enemies some people spread quicker and if a weak enemy goes down some players may find themselves cut off from the enemy. Swapping provinces is fine for access if its just the odd territory but will hardly work if huge chunks of territory need swapping for access.

I would think 4v4 is probably about the maximum you would want or you risk people being cut off early and often? You could always have multiple games if the demand is there. Then you can have a Life v Death struggle, a Order v Chaos struggle, a Good v Evil struggle etc.
