Gunboat 1 Nation Per Player

Was wondering if there is any interest in a 1650 gunboat game where each player controls only one nation. I’m too busy and in too many games to start in a regular game but I don’t want to have to play/pay for 2 nations. Anyone else out there like this?

Joel,

I expect that this type of game would be difficult to fill since certain nations (Rhudaur, Dragon Lord and Eothraim come to mind immediately) would find it very tricky to survive without a ‘sponsor’ ally nation. To get around this perhaps the guys at ME Games would allow you to join a regular 2 nation GB game with a friend who wanted to play the second nation of the duo and could communicate normally with each other?

This could help fill the 2 nation GB games faster and since I am waiting (taps fingers lightly….) no bad thing.

:cool:

Paul,

That would be an excellent idea. Much easier to communicate/coordinate with 1 player than 10+ allies. I’d be game for that.

Much easier to find someone to blame also… :wink:

That would be fine with us. Generally we do two nations as this gives you some information and means that the weak and strong nations acting in different parts of the map are more exciting to play. One nation per player and the game would be too random - with 2 nations you can have quite a lot of skill and it’s affordable.
