====================================================================== WP-UW-Announce [Moderator]: Alliances... Date: Sun, 01 Mar 2009 22:35:01 +0000 Announcement from the Moderator to All Leaders: The special rules for this universe (see http://www.websofpower.com/archives/UW/rules.htm ) originally called for the following: This universe is played using the standard rules in the Leaders' Guide, EXCEPT: * There will be two alliances at all times * Nations reaching 7 regions in size will be assigned by the moderator to an alliance. * If one alliance achieves dominance (Leader's Guide victory conditions), the alliances may be rebalanced (some players switch sides) by general consent! * These rules are subject to revision. We are a bit overdue in starting the alliances, but with 4 players it is possible to create 2 good alliances, and the balance does not look too bad. So, I'd like to try this out. I'd like this to be fun for everyone. Please send me a ranked list (preferred, 2nd, last choice) of alliance partners by the Saturday update! Attention will be paid to balance of strengths as well. Alliances will be announced either Saturday night or Sunday. -- Webs of Power, http://www.websofpower.com/ P.S. If you are no longer playing, please use the Resign button in your newspaper to resign. After your resignation goes through, you will no longer receive these messages.
