There will be five teams, each consisting of two players.

The teams will be arranged in a pentagon, and the winning condition is this:

*** The game is over, and your team wins when both of the teams adjacent to you on the pentagon are dead.

This means the two teams adjacent to you are your enemies, and the two other teams that are not adjacent to you are your competitors.

We'll use a wrap-around map so that team-mates are near each other, and enemy teams are near each other.

I'll run a TCP/IP server, on 48-hour quickhost. Teams should arrange it so that if one team member is unable to make his move the other one does it for him.

Zooko, Arc (Ulm & T'ien Ch'i)
King Lear, Ioticus (Machaka & Man)
Tauren, Panther (Marignon & Abysia)
quantum_mechani, Turin (Arcoscephale & Pangaea)
Hubris, Aku (C'tis & Ermor)

Note that the teams have been randomized by Alneyan, so which team is enemies with which other two teams is not yet known.
