Warlords Team Democracy Game?

[Paddy]

sounds all quite feasible

[Diadem]

Well it's a warlords game isn't it. There should still me roleplaying, but I see no reason to not play the role of power-hungry egomaniacal bastards

Then you´ll fit right in with Paddys team

4 or 5 teams would seem to be the least that could make a working demogame, otherwise the diplomacy aspects aren't quite there.

4 or 5 teams on a small map, Pangaea say, checked over by an admin...the last time that sort of setting was played there were a hell of a lot of wars, and a hell of alot of diplomacy (and in several cases backstabbing). But on the whole it was not a bad game, and it moved very quick.

[Zoid]

I´m in favour of a smallish map, Warlords is a warmonger expansion anyway. Not so much a builder expansion. And a quick moving game is a lot more fun than long drawn out games, at least for pbems and demo games.

Are you interested in playing, Krill?

[Krill]

Sorry, I've gone the way of many a demogame consul/pres and burnt out on demogames.

[Zoid]

Ok

[Smellycowsquid]

Count me in.

[Zoid]

Ok, now we´re 18 interested. Shall we kick this off?

At present we have two teams, Team Zoid and Team Nugog/fed1943. We need members for these teams and two more teams. Apply here or in a PM to me.

We also have two mods for the forum we might or might not get in me and Metaliturtle.

I´ll PM Dan and Markos about out intentions and see if we can´t make this official

[Rubychaser]

In. I would like to join team Nugog/fed1943. Hope they get a new name soon.

[Zoid]

Team Zoid lineup:

Zoid (Team Captain)
RobWorham
FeMme (awaiting confirmation)
CerberusIV

I think we should aim for at least 3 teams. The flow of a game is very different with 2 or 3 players. With 2 players it'll just be cut-throat fighting without much diplomacy beyond "Me stronger, me bash your skull". Trading techs for example in a 2 player game makes no sense - either you profit more, in which case the other should refuse the trade, or you profit less, in which case you should refuse the trade. With 3 players you both profit more than the 3rd, so it's advantagous for both.

So at least 3 teams, imho. And 4 would be better. Probably optimum, as 5 would become a crowd.


Anyway, I don't want to form my own team, because I don't want all the responsibility of having to organize stuff. So which team wants me?
