Conquer Club

• Coop Play - just like doubles, triples, quadruples - but sharing the same color and same units with a player/s from a team

• Example: Player 1 and Player 2 Vs. Player 3 and Player 4. The co-operation needs to be exact and true, it must have trust and deals. So, players 1 & 2 share the RED color. They start on different spots, but whoever plays first, can choose what to do. Likewise, in doubles games, you and your team mate would get - 10 red and 10 blue territories. Why not make it all red. And Team 1 is RED. Team 2 is blue. They also get all blue territories.
  
  Then we/they need a real strategy, what should each do, on each turn.
  
  This way, we would create a much more realistic environment, where both of the players would need to co-operate and would avoid deadbeating in doubles/triples/quadruples games. Of course, I guess this type of games would play only skilled and true players, who can trust in the teammate.
  
  Real example to get a thought what I am thinking:
  
  
  
  What do you think?

Or maybe not, but then both of players need to be online at the same time which can be easy in 2 vs 2 games but in 4 vs 4 probably impossible

Yeah Freestyle wouldn't work - and would be messy!!

The main query for freestyle is - when a player takes his turn - he gets X armies... - if in Freestyle all 4 people took their turns at the same time - they'd get X * (upto)4 armies - with which they could annihilate the opposition...

So Freestyle games would simlpy be - first team to co-ordinate and go first = win.

Thats exactly was Casual Freestyle Quad is now

It may be cool or even demanding to create a new style, where it would be doubles freestyle, where Only a team play together but they get only 1 bonus despite there are 2 or more players in the team.

I mean Team 1 from the picture - Player 1 and Player 2 get to play simultaneously but whoever starts the turn first of them, get the bonus for the whole team, the whole team has same cards, the whole team is just like now - one person playing with 3 players behind his back (who are giving advice, ideas etc)..

• A new gameplay option where more than one player shares control of a single colour on a battlefield. The Host specifies how many Generals per colour when creating the game

• Same maps with same gameplay, and numbers of different colours up to 8 separate armies. However, Team Red can now be two or more players. When the game ticks around to that colour player, any on that Team can make the move when it's Red's turn (whoever gets there first). One player makes a move as normal then it's over to Team Green.
• Option on freestyle speed games - this approach would work if you had some form of voice comms (teamspeak or ventrilo) with your partner. It'd be utter chaos but great fun! You would have to agree who gets what reinforcements but could then have a number of Generals doing simultaneous attacks along a broad front line - a co-ordinated surprise attempt to wipe out an opponent for instance.
• Scoring could be tricky, base it either on who took the most turns in a side, OR make it fixed scoring i.e. everyone can only lose 20 points, and all points go into a kitty at the start of the game. I can hear the howls of protest on that one already lol, this needs more analysis and work if this suggestion gets accepted

• Utter chaos and fun in large speed maps (Imagine Hive with 3 generals per side on 8 colours of armies all attacking at once!)
• If someone isn't available due to network problems, vacation, work commitments etc, you know that the rest of your team can take the turns for you so this won't hold up the game
