RSW Autumn 2018 Tournament

Post by Gorf »

Is anyone interested?

It would have to be Advanced I guess. But possibly Classic or whatever ..

Generated map. Let me know what you think!

You're right, a 15-player game is unrealistic for our current RSW player base. I've amended the Tournament Game specifications so that all three tournament games require exactly 6 players. The Classic tournament game is a 2-position multiplayer (so 12 positions total), while the Advanced tournament game is a 3-position multiplayer (18 positions total). This seems more in line with what we can realistically expect people to sign up for. :)

However, I can't easily amend the already-created game to match this, so I suggest you create a new Tournament Game with one of the new specs, and assuming 15 people don't come sign up for mineral6b, we let it quietly dissolve.

I looked at murry4c and having no choice but Skip Tracer makes the game worthless. I will not join under these circumstances.

Everyone's got their favorite character positions. Some people do enjoy playing Skip Tracer (and people have played that position to a win in the past, as evidenced in the RSW game history). Of course you're welcome to wait for the next game. :)

In a game with communication and co-operation Skippy can be fun. In a 3 position no communication it's utterly worthless.

murray3c is a normal, full-communication game. When there's co-operation is up to you, of course. :)

:roll: Well, I screwed that up. I read "members only" as "no-communication"! Good grief. Reaction to getting totally skunked in suburb7q before I could even get started. Okay, I'll give it another look knowing that communication is going to be on the table.

Ugh, missed sign up by a few hours. I'd been waiting for an advanced tournament game with all the default settings for a few months.
