do you need to have 10 actual players, or would the minimum be 4 players, 3 of who would commit to using 3 ships (1 after another, of course)?

Re: CR@W: the Bannermen - No more new turns!

Postby hopalong on Mon Jan 01, 2018 8:37 pm

so, i have TOFU winning by 3.6, followed closely by Felidae and BR rounding out the top 3. amber is my wildcard to sneak in a win if the algorithm was created by another algorithm. i am offering very lucrative odds for neverland winning it all - place your wager here.

this by far was my best CC experience - huge thnx to ice and groovy for putting it together and running the show. such a labour of love.

congrats to Borg2.0 for denying us a return to Favour of the Undead. i wonder how the game would have played out it if we did regain favour. i think we would have gone S to fight amber and assassin<s guild, but maybe we would have just wanted to backstab TOFU. who knows. regardless, that was the best strategic move i can think of for this 2nd phase. i found the powers of the undead too strong, and titled the game in their favour.

any observations or fearless predictions from others?
@groovypack: did you see any tactical errors or brilliant moves that were game changers?

congrats to all.

Congrats to all the teams who stuck with it until the end !!!

=D> =D> =D>

Big round of applause to House of Fire - managed by Hopalong of TOFU !!! It was a blast engaging you in a battle of the minds and tactics ... looking forward to future battles of wits my friend!!!

=D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D>

Also a great big shout out to our allies (who are now considered my friends in battle) in the event, hjelp (House Braveheart / Fallen) and donovan THE DARK (House Neverland / ID) and all the Lords who threw on their heavy armor and battled for us on our combined TEAMS !!! --- we made a valiant effort to take on those Hoards of Wandering Lords ... but alas .. they could not be stopped and we were overrun by those heathens!!

Thanks for all the work by the Iceman and his Smurfette
