Why would you not want to vote for "anywhere" so that you can pass troops to your partner even if you are not connected by path? It would seem that that would be desirable especially on some of the maps that we are playing on.

just a matter of taste? i prefer path because it makes constructing / maintaining / disrupting a reinforcement path a tactical element of the gameplay. i think this can make games more varied and interesting

I can't do it with 2 divisions, not smart enough...Changing to top 6 make the playoffs...top 2 get a bye...3 plays 6, 4 plays 5...If 6 beats 3, 1 plays 6...If 3 beats 6, 1 plays winner of 4vs5...Hope that makes sense.

How are the points distributed if a victory comes about after a player is taken out by his/her team mate? I think it shoudl be 3-0 and not 2-0 ...
(It is going to happen since it is a common strategy to win an escalate team game with help of your team mate's cards ...)

i agree that it would be nice to not penalise taking out teammates.

what if 1 point was awarded for winning a game, and 1 point for each player that is taken out (regardless of team)? this way a winning team could gain at 2 - 4 points per match, whereas a losing team could get 0-2 points? this would create an additional incentive to take out teammates beyond cards - not sure this is good tbh. but it could be fun? a gamble. if leading by points can require a team to eliminate team-members, this means additional risks to weigh during the games. is eliminating my teammate worth the extra point? is now a good time?

this is probably a bad idea. long day little sleep. thought id share anyway, goodnight, glad this tourney got started so so quickly, thanks for getting this on its way @bilsi

edit: of course easier seems just making an exception for taking out teammates and awarding the winning team 3 points no matter what. or not making an exception and discouraging the elimination of teammates.
