VP's - The Fork [2v2]

[pupski]

During the MP game The Fork my side (the good guys) seems to score no pints for holding Control Points while the opponents ( the bad guys) seem to get their Control Point points. I assume that the good guy flags (the green ones) are control points. No log file at the moment because I forgot to safe one, can or will do next turn.

Alas I am the other Good Guy. My read is that the only Primary VP location (denoted by a gold star atop the flag pole) is in the central city, ie we are just not very good. :-\

Whahaha, that explains a lot, why are we hunting for silver flags by the way?

Silver flags = xtra resources if I remember correctly.

I suspect the points are for any of the cities on the centre line, as I don't recall you guys ever holding the central city, and Erik and I have more points than turns. Since we grabbed the middle one, and the bottom centre line location, and you took a while to grab the northen one, does that account for the discrepancy?

Another random thought would be how about only giving points for locations which were kept occupied, rather than just controlled, by a player? The more you take, the more resource you have to commit to keeping them, making further attack harder...?

Oh and good and bad are such subjective terms

[pupski]

I read the map, units and flags wrong right at the start which was not a clever start. In the next game I would, I mean, WE would probably beat you guys easily... MOEHAHA... I am just kidding but I started without looking good enough at the map, probably late in the evening after a busy busy day. Fun scenario, I will for sure play it again.

it is a great 2v2 and should be included if there is ever a team tournament. (albeit with perhaps less than 100 turns...)
