RAFT - Late Age (Game Over!)
 

Random Anonymous Fixed Teams

Having been eliminated from my first RAND game, and wishing for one of the more interesting formats to be proposed after the Noobs Vs. Vets series, I'd like to post a new game.

Team game. Teams of 3 players. Each team will have at least one experienced player. Teams are selected in the beginning.

Nations will be randomly distributed, 3 to a team. Not entirely random, since we'll avoid having all the best nations on one team. But, mostly random.

Your team will select who wants to play each of the 3 nations given to them, but outside of your team, no one will know who's playing what! People will not know what nations are on which team, either, although they may be able to figure that out through observing interactions.

There will be NO DIPLOMACY between different teams. We're all in it to go for the win for our teams.

We will be using the following settings:
Starting provinces per player: 1
Magic site frequency: 40
Strength of Independents: 7
Money/Resource/Supply multiple: normal (100%)
Common random events
No score graphs
Hall of fame: 15
Standard magic research
No commander renaming (to help prevent people from knowing who's who)
Map: Greece Stain
Number of players: teams of 3, 6 teams (i.e. 18 players)
Mods: CBM 1.6

So, don't select a nation, since they'll be assigned to your team. Feedback on the game's settings would be good, especially if there are any nation combos that should be avoided.

Count me in.

This sounds really fun. Count me in.

Re: RAFT - Late Age (preliminary planning and recruitment)
 

I'm in...not a noob but certainly not a vet...

Re: RAFT - Late Age (preliminary planning and recruitment)
 

I'll play.

Re: RAFT - Late Age (preliminary planning and recruitment)
 

I like the name. Mixed experience levels is good. You could have 1 vet, 1 intermediate, and 1 noob on each team if it works out that way. High indy strength instead of AIs and CBM to boot, this should be quite competitive and mysterious! :D More team games are definately needed. Cooperative play has many benefits. If I can be of any assistance, setting up forums, etc, let me know. I will play if you have need of a noob, though I think I am too casual of a player to be considered an intermediate or super competitive. Or a alternate/backup player if you need one. :up:

Re: RAFT - Late Age (preliminary planning and recruitment)
 

I'd love to have it work out that way, but I don't want needless complications to get in the way of getting people into the game. Oh, people should say whether or not they feel experienced enough to form the basis of one of these teams. So far, I assume that's just Baalz, but I'm just unfamiliar with other people.

I join :up:

Re: RAFT - Late Age (preliminary planning and recruitment)
 

I join too. Not a veteran player, of course :)

Re: RAFT - Late Age (preliminary planning and recruitment)
 

I would like to join too :) (also an inexperienced player)
