Land RAND is over, other games are ending too, so it's time to start organising promised team game. I know everyone was waiting for that

Most people should remember Preponderance setup. Luckily there are no clams now, so we should have nice and pleasant game.


Game settings:
- 12 teams of 2
- every team starts in a valley, one player near plains, one near caves
- game is ANONYMOUS, but teamings are public [so who is with who] and so are team compositions [so which nation with which]
- NO DIPLOMACY allowed between temas (inside teams, pretty much anything goes, except exploits)
- you should keep your identity secret (it's not disallowed to talk to someone outside game about it, but it's strongly discouraged, so we don't eliminate potential subs; you can always chat with game admin)
- player identity is revealed when WHOLE team dies
- RENAMING is ON, but it can be used only to make microing easier, so to rename mages with random paths etc; allowed convention for e.x. fire 4 nature 2 mage could be: FFFFNN or F4N2, you should not use anything that may make someone guess who you are; you can use names that just help in micro, so things like spells he will cast or item he is about to forge are ok too; but you are also not allowed to change names of scouts, etc
- if anyone breaks rules, he may be set to AI or endure few stales, without warning
- if you have any doubts - ask before
- SUBBING: since few patches it's possible to play for more than 1 nation with same cd-key, so in emergency you can let your teammate play for you, but it can be only temporary and game admin should be notified; in other situations, try to arrange subs so that no one knows which nation it's affecting

Thread for this game exists on other forums too and it's suggested to visit there, as big part of players cannot post here.

Nation assignments:
- Ironhawk is main game admin now [there will be a backup one]
- you pick 3 [THREE] team choices, you should not repeat nations much
- your 2 nations must be worth 10 points at most, total
- all ties for a nation are won by a team that has less points total [not in 3 picks, of course]
- ties that cannot be resolved this way are up to game admin, who will try to satisfy most people and try to award highest picks for everyone
- if you lose all 3 picks, you MAY get 11 points to choose from remaining nations


No cheating!![i], this includes:

- Bogus orders
- Sickle farming
- lab filling [well, you cannot send anything this game]
- suiciding mages/priests intentionally to turn them undead
- giving up without fight
- staling
- not talking to your teammate
- revealing your or anyones ID in this game

You can see points for nations in Prepo 1 here

They'd be of course modified, because of no clams, some new patches in between + late summons mod.

And here are premade teams [they could be tweaked too]: teams
