Game idea:
*normal 8 man mines
*at the beginning of the game whoever is the last to join gets assigned the first "dealer" role.
*after a 48 hour period, the first dealer gets to call out, in public chat, a "disaster" and a color
*the color called will suffer the consequences
*whoever suffers the consequences becomes the new "dealer" and can pick a new color, and disaster, after a predetermined cooldown period.
*the disaster goes into effect 8 hours after being called.
disasters would include:
tsunami: pushes 5 drillers from all territories back to queen (12 hour cooldown)
mutiny: caller also select an incoming sub which will be turned into a gift(must be at least 8 hours away) (12 hour cooldown)
holiday: no subs may be launched for 12 hours
goes into effect 8 hours after being called (i cant stress this enough) (8 hour cooldown)
miscommunication: called must attack outpost declared by dealer with all subs at closest outpost (8 hour cooldow)
flu: all specialists are forced to stay in bed for 6 hours, and cannot leave outposts. subs with navigators must return to closest owned outpost. (12 hour cooldown)
maybe another rule like: no calling whoever called you.
would anyone play? we could always refine the rules before starting.
edit: for clarity the "cooldown" would start immediately after the "dealer" makes his/her call. the disaster always starts 8 hours after being called (just in case someone is asleep amd gets called)
also a rule like "cant be dealer for more then 4 hours after cooldown" might be nice
