Instructions wrote:Round Limit
With round limits, the game will automatically finish at the end of the specified round. The winner will be the surviving player with the most troops. If there is a tie, it will be broken based on the most regions. If there is still a tie, the winner is selected based on join order. When playing a round limited game with teams, the winning team will be based on combined teamwide troop count. This option is great for avoiding stalemates and can add some spice to the game as the deadline approaches!

As far as who to eliminate - perhaps it should be the winner's target, if round limit is reached. Should be apparent from the log i would think?

I like this. This might solve the problem. The winners target is eliminated if the time limit is reached.
Thank you guys for your response.

Also think abut eliminating the round limit and just making the game escalating spoils as that will solve a stalemate hopefully.
You could always have the "winner" that is decided with a territory and troop count tie take a screen shot of their target and send it to you. This way you can be sure of who their target was and who to eliminate.
Regarding the point spiesr brought up if someone eliminates the wrong target then you should make them the automatic loser

What do you mean by this? This game log it self does no specify a "loser," just the winner.generalhead wrote:I think I might just stick with who ever the game log says is the loser loses.

This game is an assassin game which ended by round limit. As you can see the elimination summary is different as no players were eliminated. NodLoyalist is at the top, but this is only because he is Player 1. Nobody was eliminated and all of the losers lost simultaneously.

For your tournament would you really want to eliminate the second strongest player?

His question is posed with players of equal region count and equal troop count at the end of the game. So all of the players are equally "strong"
