* mix with assassin, where any one of your colors gets wiped out, you lose
* mix terminator, where you get points for each color you kill. so you can take points and lose points to the same player in the same game.

think of the coolness!

At first I was skeptical, but you have convinced me oherwise. I think assassin would be my favorite because you could risk an all out attempt to eliminate a color while leaving one of yours open. Although Doodle earth would have to be banned for assassin games. Also they would need to add team assassin for this to happen but I would love for this to work.

k this will be different from various chessboards I am sure you have in the Map Foundry what I am suggesting is a whole new Mode of play under the Game type section(Standard, Terminator,etc)

It would be a variation of team play for the various boards but would only be a 2 player Game with each player having control of a predetermine set of team divisions. Based on board capacity 3 divisions on each team on smaller boards and the larger boards having 4 per team.

The object would be for a Generals team of divisions to win on the game. The 2 players like on any other team game would have to figure out how best to overcome the other team same as always but it puts all responsibilty on the general controling the various divisions on his team and using them to the best of his ability.

Card Play, while I would probably enjoy this best no cards I think all card play game types should still be present. Each division on a team should also be able to get its own cards without them being inter-playable as far as matching sets between divisions.

This could be player in sequential or freestyle like all other game types the resulting play would create a lot of forethought like chess each turn. Sequential of course in this case would be simpler then freestyle but each way playable and challenging.

Now downsides to be overcome if possible. Speed games would be almost impossible on freestyle. 5 minutes I do not think would be enough time to coordinate an assault with current control system.

Unless there was a type of multi control mode to be unlocked under this control menu. Where you have your team parts broken down kind of like territories in regular attack select and even then I believe it would be hard but possible.

I got this idea in part of course by playing chess and getting bored with what I feel is alack of forethoght involved in Regular CC games. I like how team games are more fun and challenging but still not the level of challenge I want on a game I need a little more thought on it like I do when I play chess.

Then I was reading through forum and looked at cheating and abuse with all the multi players. I thought how unfun that would be letting myself win by playing all sides in a battle. But why not be the general of 1 team calling all shots. That way there is no one to blame or leave a negative for if you do not play well other then yourself. Also it might somewhat help with the habitual multis getting a mode inspired in part by them lol

• Allow a single player to play as a 'team' against a similarly set-up opponent

• The problem with 1v1s, by and large, is that the person who goes first has an inordinate advantage, However, if each player in a 1v1 were instead playing all members of a team (for instance, a doubles game would be myself (red) and myself (green) vs. player x (blue) and player x (yellow)), the first mover advantage would be substantially mitigated. It would be just like a team game (no trading of terits or cards and what not), just that all players on a side would be controlled by one player. Just to head a potential beef off at the pass, I think this should only be a 1v1 option, to prevent single people playing against proper teams.

• It'll be interesting and conceptually bring that many more people to 1v1s.
• 1v1s can be made considerably fairer

That said, this would give an added dimension and could be a lot of fun.
