Pantheons

[Tris]

Read a post by Gandalf that mentioned Pantheons, and was thinking about diplomacy. I had a cool idea for a rule to make an alternative flavour of multiplayer game:

There are a number of titles available in each gods lands. (5 or 6 seems right, maybe a few more)

Each god starts with every title available, in his lands, including the title "King of the Gods". Obviously these are all only pretensions at present.

Pretenders can agree to split the titles of their adjoining lands between them. So I could agree to give you "King of the Gods" "Lord of the Sun" "Captain of the Imperial Host" and "Keeper of all Celestial Wisdom" in my lands, in exchange for "Messenger of the Gods" in your lands.

(In this case "agree" probably implies the presence of large numbers of your followers asking me nicely with pitchforks :-)

You are not allowed to destroy a god who has a title in your lands. If a particular god in your pantheon is destroyed all his titles are gone forever from your lands.

Each title has a point value attached to it. The pantheon that destroys all gods who are not part of it wins. The more titles it has left, the more it wins. Of the gods in the pantheon the King of the Gods wins the most, and wins even more if he manages to keep the most impressive titles while he does this. The Messenger of the gods doesn't win very much at all, but at least he's still around, unlike all the banished gods.

ideas? suggestions?
