Exploratory Primeval

[Lord Thanatos]

What do we think about making this a no communication allowed game as well?

Primeval Exploratory No communication (but not anonymous).

Without the diplomacy it should make deciding on our every other day turns much faster.

Anonymous in this format will enable the GI to completely wreck a selected opponent's contest from the very beginning without the other players becoming aware of this action. What balances the strengths of the GI position is the precarious central placement, which is exacerbated by communication among the players surrounding the GI.

I am always one to play lots of new formats and am generally willing to try anything, whether balanced or not. Just throwing in my two cents.

I would like to see a version of this as anonymous as well. Maybe the kingdoms of EL WA RA GN DW might be more of a balanced matchup for anon. Or maybe the DA could be mixed in. I am looking forward to trying this game after 134 gets rolling.

Maybe RA and TR, along with WI and DE, and RD? This is the combination of starting kingdoms I am intrigued by.

Screw it, I'm back in. Would love to pick up the Gnomes (which nobody likes).

A player incommunicado has asked for the Dwarves, so it is reserved. His identity will be revealed when the time is right.

That means this first game of Exploratory Primeval is filled. Remember, no starting HP and no HP hired until T4 at the earliest. No allies may be declared. Game ends when one kingdom has control of 4 regions and claims victory, or to the status point leader at the end of T24.

The Gladiators are:

BL DuPont
GI Acererak
EL Yellowbeard
GN The Deliverer
DW The dark haired stranger

Can we guess? I pick Grasshopper

Let me count the ways.... Or maybe not. Primeval is about its differences. I think we will see that 24 turns in this format is correct. It will have its suddenness.

We just need players signing up. Still just $40 for a 24 turn game for the Fab Five.

I'm going directly at Arcania because obviously the place to be in this party would be between Dusi and DuPont.

Everyone loves a good DuPontusi sammich.
