Game #11 is over, congratulations to VERAVARI for winning 11 coins!

It seems that the winner was the one who understood the mod settings the best, which was crucial in this template. Limited attacks (of 4) + LD and no airlift card meant that the best strategy was to form 4 big stacks and move them around to get at the enemy. VERAVARI first won the battle in his region against his first opponent (inoek) who surrendered, then never really was in danger after bombing and defeating the stack poopoolord sent deep into his territory. Poopoolord's forces were too dispersed, and he could not bring them together due to the mod, whereas VERAVARI managed to find clever ways to go around the restrictions created by the mod combined with LD, like simply deploying in place and then gradually creating a stack deeper in his territory and moving it through the territories he deployed in, eventually surprising the opponent with a 100+ stack on the border, and forcing him to surrender.

Game #12 is over. It was a bit of a car crash, since, in all my testing, I forgot to disable AI, and one player immediately got booted and the other immediately surrendered, on the same team.

I'll be remaking it for the aforementioned reasons. Here's the new link:

Pls stop breaking my autopilot....

Game #15 is open! The card settings in particular are a bit kazoo on this one. It's on the Kingdom of Farah map, and an 18 player FFA.

Game #16 is open! It is on the Multibonus Ireland map, and it's a 2v2v2.

Hi, Nice to see also you use randomized settings in warzone games, in the past years I build an excel randomizer and adjusted it to avoid bugs/endless gameplay or discussions (like booting settings) or to avoid in general boring games.
I use it for a long time already

Maybe we can help eachother and learn from eachothers perspective in creating randomized games

I'm quite suprised you managed to make a template where you can attack with negative armies, this is something I've never seen before.

Oh i see, so you had the idea longer than me, that's cool! Sure, I would welcome that. I'll gladly hear how you did it too. I simply randomized everything with equal possibilities for all options for the most part, though sometimes I would switch bounds somewhat arbitrarily to make it more playable. I'm looking for more ways in which I can randomize though, so knowing how you have been doing it would be awesome

I don't think it actually did that. JK_3 has discovered some bug which I also haven't seen myself, lol, so maybe he can show how he got to it, but I guess the insane army numbers caused it

Bug was fixed in the last update (was a bug with autopilot AI)

Game #3 is over, congrats to HyperionKnight for winning! https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=33785297

I actually nearly won this one, eliminating several players in the process, and even managed to launch a sneak attack at HyperionKnight, who was in a better position and winning, after which some turns of cagey fights followed, but ultimately I made a mistake and got eliminated. HyperionKnight played well and deserves the win.

Game #13 is over, congrats to Cosine Malady (and Batdog and hugh, technically), for winning 18 coins!
https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=34147205

Wild game from start to finish. A few players (like Alspaz and hugh) got themselves eliminated quickly, and others followed (like Torsten and MetalGear4.5, killed in a single turn by Rex Imprator, and Pyrate70 who surrendered), resulting in the player count dwindling very quickly all the way to 4 and a last 2v2 fight. Batdog built a huge amount of cities in Sweden, but Open Seat managed to blitz through and eliminate him with a sneaky multi-attack sweep. However, he very quickly got a taste of his own medicine thanks to Cosine Malady's superb counterattack, and a few cagey fights in Russia followed, but Cosine didn't put a foot wrong, and managed to take out Open Seat and Rex Imprator from crucial areas, bit by bit. Well deserved victory for him, and he secured the coins for his team (despite getting upset at his teammate Batdog and apparently BL-ing him, lol).

I keep missing these, I'll put this on watch thread. Cool series

Game #16 is over, congrats to Cosine Malady for winning 16 coins for his team (and I guess ShogunTakeru.. who went AI right away)
https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=34370835

The neutrals were high, but the starting player armies were not, and there was a corridor of player territories in the middle, as this isn't a very big map. Whoever managed to gain control of it was always likely to win. ShogunTakeru instantly turned AI, but his teammate Cosine Malady once again proved he knows how multi-attack works and was able to beat up everyone in the middle, which basically meant victory at that point. Some players (like Torsten) built cities - that turned out to be an unsuccessful strategy. Cosine's doomstack got him from surprise from an unexpected direction and that was that. Another deserved victory from the looks of it.

Game #17 is open, it's a 22 player FFA on the minecraft map, with no cards and multiattack.

https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=34471527

Y'all can just ask if you want regular invites. Might not always do it, e.g. when the game is small, but I have nothing against inviting folks to help it fill up faster (I invited L.L. since his last post here, I stopped inviting him earlier because he got booted from the other games so I was worried whether he could handle it, but I'll now start inviting again). I'll also invite people who I see joining all or almost all of these games from now on (like Torsten). I'll stop if any of you declines, or gets booted (until further notice, I can reinvite if you say you want it again).

But yeah, just post here or mail me if you prefer

PS: Cosine didn't miss #16, he won it lol, i guess he forgot because of how quickly it finished

Edited 5/22/2023 11:16:55

invite me to all your random games, I like the chaos. I never win but I don't mind

Game #18 is open. It's a 3v3v3v3 on a map with only 13 territories, and 94/15 killrate. https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=34535645

Game #19 is open, it's a 3FFA with only the bomb card and the bomb card+ mod https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=34547291

there's no invites because of how small a game it is

Tournament #3 is now finished, congrats to Cosine Malady (again!) for winning 21 coins! (and H and Shy for 2nd place finishes)
https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer/Tournament?ID=52684

Cosine once again proving that multi-attack is something he does well with. It was a pretty interesting template, sort of a Georgia Army Cap but with multi-attack, light fog and some other things. Probably wouldn't be a bad 1v1 template if adjusted a bit, but yeah, it ended up being a 3FFA, and that often meant that whoever ended up in a position to watch the other two fight between themselves would win. Then, the game would suddenly be decided with a lunge from nowhere, more often than not.

Best game was possibly https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=34319543 , where H came behind from just two territories and 0 armies to win the game.

Game #20 is open, it's a 7-teams-of-2 game. Notably, you get 13 bomb cards every turn, because why not. https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=34550977

Game #15 is over, congrats to Asx for winning 18 coins! https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=34294503

This game was a bit overkill when it comes to chaos, it was hard to follow what was going on. Cosine Malady and Asx could easily have gone on for a long while, but Cosine got booted so Asx wins
