Asymmetrical Battles

[mr cholo]

Hi everyone!

We use to play with the same points for faction in a battle. Unfortunatelly this situation was not common in history. For this reason I have thought we can post here created challenges with differents points for faction in order to play different experiences.

In order we can identify this kind of battles, you should write in the description "Asymmetrichal" or "Asymmetrichal battle" when you create it.

You could create a battle with 1600 points in one faction and 1450 for the other and we can put here the password in order someone could pick it up the battle. In order we have not to see this topic before to accept the battle in the multiplayer, I am thinking the password could be always the same, for example: battle

This is the main idea.




I am going to write some advices than could be good to establish some framework:

-You have to say in the post what armies and points they have, obviously. You can choose historical enemies or any army you want.

-Others ideas are: You could create a mirror challenge or not. For being more randonly you could create a battle where computer could select the troops and you only have to deploy them. Potluck could be the best option for the battlefield, etc. Definitevely, you can create the battle you want. You could see the whole chosen options when you pick up the battle in the multiplayer.

-Stablishing an aggressor and a defender army in this asymmetrical battles could be a great idea to make the battle more realistic. The army with less points would be the defender and it have the right to place his army in a deffensive terrain. In other hand, the army which have more points must be agresive and attack the other. However, I think the defender have to let at least three squares without put any troop during the whole battle in order to allow a realistic attack as flankings movements and similar. In any chase the defender could try to scam and be very agrressive, for trying to surprise the aggresor.

I think battles could be more epic and realistic If the players agree with this roles and advices.

I hope you enjoy this idea.

PD: Sorry for my english. I hope you can understand me clearly.

Regards!

I created a battle:

Macedonians (Me) VS Seleucids 1100 vs 1300 points. You can see the description in the multiplayer

PW: battle

We could create a competition with this idea. But I think they should be symmetrical battles. In the end, the better player will score more points with the smaller army.
