I�d like to be evil as Sauromatia.

I think I�d really enjoy roleplaying evil. I suppose the evil players are supposed to really act evil in the game.

I understand the rule about no communication, but it kind of hampers the evil roleplaying possibilities. Like lying and stabbing allies in the back and other very evil things, but I guess it might be necessary.

Maybe we should raise Neutrals to 3 players as well? That doesn't hurt evil too bad, because they might even fight amongst themselves at some point.

Also, we could raise Evil to 9 players. Then it would be 8 (5+3) v 9 in the beginning. Good would really rely on the neutrals to not be overwhelmed. Of course we should maybe wait to see if we get that many players.

I'd like to play if there are any slots left. I prefer the good guys but am okay with the other factions.

I like how CUnkown balanced out the Good vs Neutral vs Evil factions with different advantages and victory conditions. Of course we can all talk philosophically about what good and evil mean forever, but it looks like it will be an interesting gameplay element.

Ha! I had logged back in to check to see if I could change my nation from Neutral MA Ermor to Good MA Ulm. Doh! If you ever change your mind, CUnknown, I'd like to switch. ; ) Otherwise, I'll stay as I am.

Suggestion: Allow good nations to trade *away* any death gems and/or blood slaves to the neutral nations?

Slave trading sounds a bit evil.

The idea for evil nations is interesting, but I think it might be a bit to complicated, on top of the current game system. I'm also not sure neutrals really need a bunch of watchers.

I love Drake49's idea for the evil nations each having a secret foe! It's perfect to help keep them sufficiently paranoid! Edit: And yes, I agree all communications restrictions should remain as-is.

And note for my own idea, the good nations still could not deliberately generate blood slaves, for example. Only trade whatever (rare) slaves they happen to generate. But yes, I do see the point of it not being exactly good to do so...

I hate the idea of banning death and blood for everyone, though. Don't think that will pass, but if we did that, I wouldn't even be able to play MA Ermor at all.
