You could easily do subs and guest-matches. If the MM can't make it, we could just ask Corvus or someone to fight for us. I think we're all friends here (or you know, go to hell)!

But I am so on board for this.

Yeah. I'll probably have a pretty open subs policy. If you can't make it, just ask somebody else. Heck, even say "Need a few engineers for a match" in global if you need it. I don't want to make it so teams can't play.

Still working on a google doc for this. I'll share it once I have the basic rules out.

ALRIGHY!

If your clan/team might be even slightly interested in participating in this event, it would be great if I could get a logo, no bigger than 128 by 128 please. No pressure, I'm not going to close the signups or anything. Just testing something out.

Oh right the missions in risk. I never really played that way. What do you guys think? I actually forget how the missions worked.

usually a mission would go as:
conquer 2 continets, (roughly the same size)
destroy target player
conquer 24 territories
conquer 18 territories with atleast 2 armies.


the missions make it more interesting, as the underdog can be brewing a plan and then take the gold in 1-2 rounds.

Wait, take 2 continents? That seems a bit hard.

What you are really getting at here is what is known in Tabletop miniature circles as a Campaign.  I think if you looked at some of these campaigns and went away from strictly Risk-type thing, you might find something a lot easier to deal with.

I think the more famous of these is Mordheim in the Warhammer universe.  A Guns version of it would have a lot less moving parts, but could be a lot of fun.

Just letting you all know, I'm not abandoning this yet. I'm back at my home after a vacation, and continuing work.

Just some constructive suggestions; ship icons should be larger, team icons should be smaller.  I think squids should stand for one unit, pyras for five and galleons for 10.

Also every conquered area should have a ship on it right?

Ship and team icons, will do. @Squids, pyras, and galleons, how about squid was 1, pyra 3, galleon 10?

And as for every area should have a ship on it, yes, but that's a lot of work for a test run. :P

I just kind of figured this morphed into the Flotsam Dynasty. I'm excited to know it's still a thing.
