Question revisit: Multiple versions of same nation
Can you:
a) Have the same era nation two or more times in one game. i.e. 4 EA Ulm, 3 EA Helheim's, etc.
1. I believe the answer is yes, but would like confirmation. I think it was discussed in one of GP's randomization posts.
b) Can the banner mod be changed to deal with this? 4 EA Ulms - random, or slight variations to the available banners? Would each banner need to be made separately? For example, make 10 varying Ulm banners, then have a game of 10 EA Ulms vs. each other?
2. I believe the answer is also yes.
c) Thinking this way, with multiple of the same era nations, what would be the max # of players on a single map? I believe the max size is 1500 (need bigger!) so if you limited everyone to 10 provinces apiece you could squeeze on 150 players. true? 150 Helheims!
Ignore rest, full on ramble.
d) I'd like to see the above scenario matched with Dr's tourney idea. 150 players, really squished together playing a VP game for a set amount of turns - say 50. Any nations, multiples allowed. Minimal sites, very difficult magic, minimal gold/resources. This would definitely benefit bless nations. At the same time have a parallel game at 20provinces/nation (75), research or dominion goals for win, easy magic, high resources, high gold, 50 turns.
Hmm, limiting tourney time only really makes sense if starting conditions were used to assist late game nations. I'd like to see like top 5 early game/face hugger nations go against top 5 late game nations in both conditions. Shrug, or just a way to have month long tourneys instead of year long.
