I'll avoid this setting at all costs - even if it is on principle only.

NO, NO, NO, NO, NO. Double turn freestyle loophole activated. Stall to drop troops and begin first round of play w/o opponent present.

Well we'll have to see how this thing works out. will try it but I don't know If i will play it regularly.... depends on how it goes

Whats wrong with sequential placement and no fog. Yes takes more rounds to even start the game, but would be the real "initial troop placement"
Could even make each map have a specific round limit to get all the troops deployed by forcing X amount of troops be placed per round.

Of course keep the freestyle fog option for those brave souls that like it.

There are a lot of problems with this thing I see!!

Well, I think I have a solution!!!
1. Decide the order of play as before which will be enforced in sequential games after the deployment!!
2. Deployment round should be freestyle 24 our turn but FOG/NOFOG option should be the same as the initial settings!! (that way people who wanted the same game as the board can have it entirely)
3. In freestyle games the player who is the last to deploy is treated as he ended the turn so he cant start first until the half of the round time has passed!!

p.s. I dont think that this would be played much even with the corrections especially freestyle and 5 or more player games, but if you like it why not!!

There was an interesting idea a while back, which was rather supported by the CC community!!
It was a choice to play a game without the dice!! (exm. attack 7 to 5: you lose 5 to kill 5, so you advance with only 1). I forgot the exact name of the post...
Maybe You could give it a taught!!

I gave it a shot on 1v1 world 2.1 and got the first turn. I was like bingo! so I went about destroying his stacks and took a bonus or two. I missed one stack because it was not where i expected him to build and he somehow then managed to come back and win. I am still unsure what i did wrong but I guess going first isn't everything.

I am going to try it in a few team games and see what happens.

But I am not going to give up on it as quickly as dear old brucie

While it may not be perfected yet, I think this update will be a lot of fun in the long run. Don't give up on it so easily. Keep in mind that it is poor strategy to just stack in one spot and hope to have the first turn. Lucky if it happens? Most definitely, but more often than not you are just going to shoot yourself in the foot with that strategy.

its more the fact of freestyle 1v1. anyone who is willing to wait around can take mega advantage of it

If I can get 50% odds playing vs. people with 3x my points, its awesome. But agreed about not giving up hope on it.
