because Western Civilization is the only one that matters really. However, does anyone else notice the lack of a Conquests of Qin or an Ascendency or Decline of the Mughals variant?

Butterheads' War for America: Team Edition
Everyone knows the concept by now... Team game, where you have a preset alliance that does not change for the duration of the game, and the game cannot end until there is a stalemate line or only one team remains... for this team game, I am looking at Fall of the American Empire. There are 3 layouts of teams I have thought of that we can decide which one we want

Board-of-advisors variant?
We all have weaknesses. Some of us may be weaker in strategy, some weaker in tactics, some weaker in negotiation, some weaker in stabbing/not getting stabbed.
What about this: Let us start a standard game. Players may recruit as many advisors as they see fit, to advise them on all issues of the game.

Gameplay suggestion for consideration
Do you think it would be feasible / realistic / playable to have the ability to "stack" multiple units in the same territory? It would definitely deal with the issue of draw-lines, I'd wager...

Drawing
Am I right in saying if a decision is made to draw a game all the points are equally distributed amongst the players irrespective of how many SCs each player might have?

I've noticed in some of the games I've had that when some countries aren't doing very well in games they start to miss turns and ask for draws. Is there a way of drawing games where points are distributed according to how many SCs each country holds at the point of the draw?

fasces349 (1007 D)
14 Jun 11 UTC
Some team games that I would like:
OPIUM WAR!
Map: Colonial
Team 1 (Anglo Alliance): England and France
Team 2 (Quing Alliance): China and Russia
Team 3 (East India Company): Japan, Holland and Turkey

WORLD WAR I
Map: No Neutrals (to prevent France from being able to get into Spain)
Team 1 (Triple Entente): France, England, Russia
Team 2 (Central Powers): Germany, Austria and Turkey
Special Rules:
France is not allowed to give orders in S1901
Italy joins the loosing side at the end of 1903. He is neutral before that.
Russia is not allowed to submit orders in 1907 (however the central powers are allowed to attack). In 1908 he joins the side that is loosing.

NEEDS A NAME!
Map: Karabik
Team 1: Cuba, Paraguay and Columbia and America
Team 2: Peru, Venezuela, Brazil and Mexico

MIGRAINE!
Not sure the country names but every other country in clockwise formation will be on a team. So both your neighbours are enemies.

SHOGUN!
Team 1: Oda, Asakura, Mori and Uesugi
Team 2: Shimazu, Choskabe, Hojo and Takeda

"Wouldn't the Central Powers always win??
Only time I played it the juggernaut won (I was turkey)
Even though they have 3 guys vs 2 vs 2. They start off in the center of the map, so its likely going to turn into a 4 on 3.
WWII (Modern):

Allies: Britain, France, Poland, Egypt
Axis: Germany, Italy, Spain
Soviets: Ukraine, Russia
Neutral: Turkey

Provisos:
*Egypt switches sides to the Axis if Britain is defeated
*Turkey can switch sides at any time
fasces349 (1007 D)

Shouldn't the other rule be Soviets and Axis vs Allies until year 1906?

Where it becomes Soviets and Allies vs Axis...
kaner406 (2067 D Mod (B))

WWII (Modern): I'm up for it.
@fasces: No, because that was specifically brought about by an action that might not be replicated in the game. The Soviets were neither Axis nor Allied-aligned until Germany invaded them in 1941. If Germany never chooses to invade them then the Soviets shouldn't be forced to be with the Allies. Egypt switches sides simply because while Egypt nominally was an independent nation-state that sympathized with the Axis due to anti-British sentiment, it was in practice a British territory that fought with the Allies because the British had de facto control of Egypt. And Turkey stayed neutral until the waning seconds of the war where it declared itself with the Allies... so it can kinda do its own shit because that's what it did in the War.

Also, regarding the Soviets/Allies: The Allies' faction represents the Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Force, which was the coalition of American, British, and French troops that served as the military arm of the Allied Forces, as well as their represented de facto dependents (Egypt and Poland). You'll note that Dwight D. Eisenhower did not command any Soviet troops. The Soviets and Allies may have worked together against Germany, but to make them into one faction is, I feel, an oversimplification.
fasces349 (1007 D)
14 Jun 11 UTC
Soviets helped Germany in Poland...
That doesn't make them pro-Axis. They invaded Poland for their own independent reasons, not to help the Axis Powers and get buddy-buddy with them.
kaner406 (2067 D Mod (B))
14 Jun 11 UTC
I think that Egypt should have to declare their team-allegiance publicly though - as though he were playing a treaties game.
Do you mean Turkey, kaner? Because Egypt's fate is tied to Britain's; there's no alliances to be declared.

The way I was looking at the WWII theme was to have the three major factions (Nazis/Soviets/Allies) squabbling for position with Turkey being a wildcard. Turkey is its own team; it does not join a side at any point and is basically playing a normal game. That's how I envisioned a historically-accurate WWII replication on the Modern map.

Two new team games with the new map:
WW1:
Central Powers: A,GandT
Triple Entente: F,R,E
No Italy in game

WW2:
Axis; A,G+I
Allies: F,R,E
