uhm i thought about the whole nation being disclosed until start thing but i think exactly the opposite...

if you have a nation that just randomly happens to be good against another nation (or have an appropriate pretender/strategy worked out) then the opposing nation is doomed (with 2 semi-equal players). also it would just be luck in happening to have that nation vs the other... no strategy involved

if you know the other nation then you can design your strategy to:

a) work well against the other nation
b) counter the other nations strengths


in any sports match the "weaker" team must use the opposing teams weaknesses to full extent while using there own strengths.

both teams know who they are playing against.

i also think that the whole pretender/strategy design before the game starts would be an interesting and important factor then.

'hmm im a demon nation against very strong priests... what do i do to minimize the problem or even turn it to my advantage'

(in fact in my current game against zapmeister thats exactly whats going on... and im in the advantage as the demons :P)

at least thats how i see it.

in theory it could also just be upon agreement of the two players (and if there is no agreement then either a default that we agree on or randomness)
