Which side in MP challenge?

Post by kronenblatt »

I should know this by now, but never seem to remember, so writing a question in a thread, to be assured the information is there for the afterworld.

If I create a MP challenge and want the player accepting the challenge to immediately get it in his/her My Turn tray so that he/she immediately upon accepting the challenge can open it and start selecting units and deploying them:

Should I then be Side A (and opponent consequently Side B) or Side B (and opponent consequently Side A)?

Side A sets up first. Side B sets up second and moves first. I always set myself as side B in my challenges, so my opponent can set up as soon as he accepts the challenge, as I think this can speed up the start.

Thanks Karvon! Yes, that's what I had in mind too, to speed things up. Good: then I know that I should be Side B when creating a challenge.
