I have thought about this for a little while and decided to officially look for interest. The premise is that players with the power to do so set up games for other war players so they can gain war skill and earn substantial rewards.

First, I am thinking of dividing up interested players in the following categories:

Class A
Class AA
Class AAA
Sponsors

Class A will compromise of players with the least skill/resources on up to Class AAA consisting of the top-end war players. Interested players should give an idea of what level they wish to compete at. Higher levels offer more rewards but stiffer competition.

Sponsors set up the games and for purposes of the sign-up, will give an idea of what they can contribute to the games. Typically the sponsor will setup countries that are the focus of the games and stock the country with an amount of cash that serves as the game prize.

As the first sponsor, I am looking to contribute $20 Trillion/week. I am thinking of rewards being $5 Trillion for Class A, $10 Trillion for Class AA, and $20 Trillion for Class AAA. So, I alone can setup a single AAA or some combination of smaller events each week. I may contribute other assets as well.

A short FAQ:

1. How do I get prizes?

-Sponsors will stock a country they own with an amount of cash and possibly other assets. As part of the games, you conquer the country and obtain it and all country assets including any cash.


So post here if you are interested and what level you are interested in (Class/Sponsor). Participants post your world(s), participating country names, and federation. Sponsors post what you might be able to contribute and for which worlds. I am personally looking at FB for the location of the first games but anyone interested for other worlds should go ahead and sign up too. I can get this started very soon. Tell your feds. Tell your friends.

Lovely idea Aries!
We'll be watching this closely. If you gain some momentum we'll figure out a way to support this and integrate it into the game.

Thanks Jonni!

Great Johanas! Just need your info. Need country, world, and which division you want to compete at. As we line up players, you may decide to change division later. I am thinking players can then challenge those in their division and, if the challenged player accepts, I can start to set it up.

I am thinking of keeping track of stats as well. Players will have a record in their division and, over time, as they advance, may have a Class A and Class AA record, and so on, as well as a career winnings amount.

For players with the least assets, I may offer a scenarios with an equal cash amount for both. The rules will give one a win but the loser would receive cash so they can continue.

Good deal Falcon. WG is actually the easiest next place for me to setup games.

Encourage others to sign up. I am thinking it is even possible to setup team games here.

I have created a new thread on the "War and Peace" forum to offer challenges. I have also posted the first scenario there, "The Race".

Sign up. If interested, need your participating country, world, and which class you wish to participate in. Need one from Tonyw and Johanas too. I'll setup a match this weekend if I can get a valid challenge soon.

Jonni,

I know a way you can support this right now, Jonni. Stick some cash into those C3 war levels.
War Level 10= $15T
War Level 11= $25T
War Level 12= $40T
War Level 13= $60T etc...

Yeah, this is a great idea for the GM. We spend our hard earned game cash on setting up our own war games and handing out our own prizes. All the risk on us, and if we lose, we start all over again. If we want to rebuild, who "CA CHINGS". Why, the GM of course.

Aires, is not that your idea is bad, it's just that this is what the GM should be doing in the first place. Not the players.

Count me out.

I don't mind setting this up. I do have some suggestions how the game could setup something similar but PvP is unlike fighting a c3. Simply upping their rewards will not do it.

I am sorry to hear you will not be participating. I am determined to make this work. If I don't have a match in the next week, I will carry over rewards to week 2. Someone just might take home $40 Trillion..

The GM could easily set up a scenario which rewards winners of real PVP awards with compensation that make up for the war effort. They just don't want to.
However, I admire your effort to make the game more interesting.
This is not the way to go about. The game should do away with war levels for all players on all worlds after they have had ample time to learn the game.
All that aside, I will be interested in watching whether this takes hold. There is nothing wrong with keeping a watchful open mind.

i've made sure space travel is cheap, so yea, relocate, if shuttles at 1/12 the building cost isn't enough, let me know

i've still got 1000 shuttles, and enough space parts to get right back up to max production in no time flat.

e. vesp, don't stand in front of this, its silly, if it works, then its what many wanted, if it doesn't then, it was a good try, give him a thumbs up for the effort.

As I mentioned in the original post, the goal is to have games available everywhere. Participants mention which world you are interested in competing in and your country name (and which class). By including your country name, it allows the sponsor to attempt to base your match nearby.

@ Orbiter. I am not sure what you mean by silly. Apparently you didn't read my post. I do give Aires the "thumbs up" for his effort. Also, I am not standing "in front" of his efforts. I have simply decided not to participate. I stated my reasons. Read the post again and quit acting "silly".

Yes. EMPEROR has a point....I have $1000T that I can sponsor with. But that wont last long. When that's gone its gone. Maybe the GM should put the $ reward into the sponsor country? The player puts their resources into building a war worthy country?

Sorry. I was in a rush when I made that last post.

Thanks Nix. If you wish to sponsor or participate, either way it will be helpful.

I don't foresee that I will have funding issues. I should be able to sponsor this as long as there is interest or a worthy replacement is found.

Looking for more participants all. Currently Falcon is the only one I have all necessary info on. This is not just for FB! This is your chance to learn the war game, test out theories, and have some fun and I am picking up the tab!

I have 17 mill pop countries on FB.
What class will they be? Will index's matter? At what point does the country get the cash injection as it will be eating all the cash thats in it? Black-outs and time zones (they are my biggest fear LOL)?

Mmmm? Maybe we should put our time zones in so players can pick the one who is not going to be attacking them when they are asleep? lol
