Team games: Teams vs Alliances

[namad]

all you have to do if you have a duo with a ****ty teammate is fire him and play both yourself :-p


i'd say the average dominions player doesn't have the heart/drive/communion/or time to properly play on a team of 4+ players


being on a team of 4 in one game is as much work as being in 2or3 games alone

Hehe, yeah, you could, though it would sorta double your workload depending upon the size of your teammates nation.

Absolutely, the larger the team the more time and effort required. Hence part of the reason for the rarity of team games in general. I still think 3 or 4 on a team is managable. Amazingly we had as many as 12 in one of the NvV games. Though there were some communications issues, it was still able to be successfully carried off, gods only know how but it is a testament to the captains, players, and teamwork in general.

Depending upon your available free time, its sort of a choice, you can either play in 3-5 FFA type games or in my case 1 FFA and 1 team game at a time. Playing in fewer games simultaneously does have its advantages, if real life gets in the way, your HD explodes, or any number of things happens, you don't need to find a sub for 4 or 5 different games. I'm surprised anyone has the time for 4 or 5 games at once considering the amount of thought the Dom3 requires in general and outside affairs.
