Ns League Concept

MarineSGT

<div class="IPBDescription">modeled on European DoD</div> I've seen some leagues in European DoD where each team decides and signs up as a specific side (marine or alien). Then they play the entire season on that side against teams of the other side. Then at the end of the season, the teams on each side with the best record plays a playoff of sorts...certain number of games out of a number (3 out of 5 maybe) over a period of time. I think this would work rather well with NS and allow matches (consisting of one round) to play out to their end (live or die). A marine team can switch to aliens for the next season and vice versa if they wish. This would perhaps ensure the integrity of the game and also create some rather good matches since teams would start to specialize (like real life war). Would any of the current North American leagues be interested in this?

im not anyone important, but i think thats a pretty good idea. i would rather play out full games, and i just happen to be terrible at Marine. lol. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

thats like the ETO dod league concept, where you chose to be axis or allies, and you reinact the normandy invasion.. so land on the beach as allies defeat a clan, work your way up into france... <-- good idea


but, i dont know if it would work. i dont think the game is balanced enough yet for that to happen. but yet again, who knows =/

i hate to do this, but i must. lol.

the game is balanced, the players just arent up to speed yet.

ok. im done. lets remember this isnt about balance. but, valid point nonetheless <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

I think this game will have to be played by a lot more folks a lot more times with mature strategies before this statement is anything but wishful thinking. But the league format idea sounds like fun.
