Battle Royale

I saw in the previous games that at one point there was a battle royale, and I want it to happen again. It looks like it was a lot of fun.

If it happens I want in.

No cards battle royale. Worst idea ever.

At least its not sequential!!

We should have a Battle Royale on Darts or North America when they are completed. The more players the better!

The guy who created it (death to all) said he was the only person to join this site before lack. So I would imagine he's some kind of friend or co-creator or something. And got special privledges to create games with 42 players, so each person starts with one country.

In the first Battle Royale, it was an escalating game so it ended rather quickly and the winner (got heart) ended up with like 600+ points. This game is no cards, and since holding a continent is still impossible everyone (the smart ones at least) are just adding and adding to their armies and doing nothing else. The winner of this game will either be the most patient person, or the person who gathers a tons of "alliance" friends to suicide against the other remaining players.

Should do this again, but make it a Terminator game since that is available now.

Problem there is that high ranked players wouldn't want to play, they'd just get swarmed over by lower ranked people. In the first round two good rolls and a low ranked player is guaranteed a profit for the game even if they die right after. Get bad rolls and they don't lose much anyway.

I will join, if I have a game free, say it some days before it is, I will try and open up a place

Don't be so sure that highranked players wouldn't want to play, Zip. There is a large contingent of them I think that care more about fun, than their score.

That's insane. Maybe someone should create a Battle Royale map that has 3x the number of territories so people can't disappear so quickly.

(North America).

Somehow, I always knew that the Battle Royale would be in North America.

Yeah but you don't have much fun being eliminated before you get to move!

When I've played terminator games with 6 players I feel targeted from the get go (if everyone else is much lower in rank than me) and its very hard to make any progress. Starting with only 1 country is suicide.

I have no doubts that if I started next to Pilate, I would deploy and attack him as quickly as possible

So far all i've heard is arguments about whether people would play or not, but i posted this to find out if it could be done again. If I wanted to know what people think about it, I would have put a poll at the beginning

So we obviously don't know the answer... I told you who started the games, so if you want to find out if theres going to be another contact him.

I would assume there will be more in the future. It seems like he's testing out the best game options thus far. And once we get a few larger maps, I think they will make the game a little more interesting.
