Ever-Green League - 900 AD: CLOSED
This league is aimed at people like myself who are looking for opportunities to play FoG2 casually and socially, yet in an organised way. The competitive part comes naturally, from the victory conditions. The idea is a "constant" ("ever"-lasting or ever-green) league, based on challenging each other along a table; fighting battles and getting points (depending on battle results) as well as always switching armies with each other (yes, always, after battle, independent of battle results) to create variety over time. The social part is not at all about having a strict conversation each turn on the chat. Just the type of chat that I've been having in my games with most of you guys (no names) and have come to enjoy so much (and is part of why I play FoG2): light, friendly, on- and off-topic (FoG2 as well as real life stuff), when we have something to say. Not really commenting every turn with at least 256 letters... But what I do want to avoid is the 100% competitive oriented approach, where the chat starts with "GL HF" and ends with "GG" and nothing in between, if you understand what I mean. The league comes in four separate sections, with armies covering a specific year (300 BC, 500 AD, 900 AD, and 1240 AD), and this thread refers to the 900 AD section.
The current standings and the results are available in:
EGL 900 AD on Google Drive
This league is now closed.

Re: Ever-Green League - 900 AD
Spanish 900-1049 AD is unfortunately already taken by another player, so please pick another army.schmolywar wrote: ↑Mon Dec 07, 2020 11:05 pm Spanish 900-1049 AD with Andalusian 756-1049 AD allies please
Also, you will not need to specify any allies, since for each individual game, the player making the challenge can choose whether to bring allies to his current army at that time (out of the available allies for that particular army), whereas in contrast the player being challenged will not be allowed to bring any allies.

Re: Ever-Green League - 900 AD
Of course, if we were gaming the system, which we aren't supposed to be doing, it would perhaps be most effective to pick the worst army in the list (whichever that is), since you will only have to play one game with it (for a while) and it will thereafter spread alarm and despondency amongst the players who have to use it subsequently.Aetius39 wrote: ↑Tue Dec 08, 2020 7:08 amFantastic!

Re: Ever-Green League - 900 AD
I doubt (or at least hope not) people would do that. Besides, I (optimistically) would look at that as a challenge. Also, every person would only have to play that army for a while too, so wouldn't be so bad. Now if you had to play Moors 350 army 9x...then I could understand jumping out a windowrbodleyscott wrote: ↑Tue Dec 08, 2020 7:37 amOf course, if we were gaming the system, which we aren't supposed to be doing, it would perhaps be most effective to pick the worst army in the list (whichever that is), since you will only have to play one game with it (for a while) and it will thereafter spread alarm and despondency amongst the players who have to use it subsequently.Aetius39 wrote: ↑Tue Dec 08, 2020 7:08 amFantastic!

Re: Ever-Green League - 900 AD
Agree: I believe and hope that people choose armies based on what they think would be fun to play with and against. And from what I've seen so far, that seems to be the case for all of 300 BC, 500 AD, and 900 AD.Aetius39 wrote: ↑Tue Dec 08, 2020 8:33 amI doubt (or at least hope not) people would do that.

In this case, let's make a go with Armenian 885-1045 AD. Thank you.
