One issue that can occur with any "all on all" campaign is that the way to win is for 2-3 players to ally together and then they crush 1-2 people very quickly for negliable losses. Its not really much fun or even a test of skill if you are playing battles where you are outpointed 2 to 1.

With the kind of mix you have you could easily get the 2 FSE and the ESU player allying and then just about everyone else would need to ally to keep them off.


True - on the other hand we have at least some VERY gentleman player types. Me(ESU), the Kra'vak player, one of the ESU and the NSL player usually go for the exciting game rather than the game we win. And being the umpire I wouldn't probably try and limit my allying with anyone to a fragile alligance at best. But yes players that go for the ultimate kill might ruin it all. I will try and set up some player requirements that will hopefully make them sure they want to participate and help out with the "story" rather than win the game.
