There seem to be several PBMs going on at the moment, and they've certaintly added a 'spark' to the community. However, I've just had an idea for a whole new kind of e-mail based event.
Basically, my musings concern how to make these things more involved, and what I came up with was an idea for several PBM campaigns. Together.
What this would involve would be several campaigns started at the same time. Each campaign would take a different faction. The campaigns would be played on exactly the same campaign setting (age, difficulty etc)
The objective: To complete the campaign before all of the other .Org Factions.
All of the campaigns will be started at the same time(in the real world) for fairness. Each faction will have a faction leader, responsible for managing the save game(Important if you don't want to fall behind), and canvassing for players. This will add a new political dimension, as all factions will be recruiting-Who can get the best players?
It's not perfect, far from it, it's just an idea in progress. I'm just posting it to get suggestions and see if there's enough support.
