    I think it would work here, yeah. Though I think that if they did it here, they would change it and make it two teams facing off against each other.

    And it would be like that Food Wars show or whatever on Food Network (not Iron Chef) where they have like, a team of fire men face off against a team of police officers. The show would have themed teams and stuff like that.

    It would be cool! It would great to see 2v2 groups match off. How would you organize the battles? Historical, or let the players draw and choose?

    Possibly the weaker army somehow gets more technical info on troops/tactics/ using the terrain or some kind of helper that would make it less lopsided

    TC would definitely work in the States, in fact when I watch the disappointingly shallow and dull Decisive Battles show I find myself yearning for TC with its incompetent teams, Eddie Mair's sarcasm and Aryeh Nusbacher's color commentary.

    I would also prefer to see two teams go head to head but then you might need two hosts for better coverage. That would also be more expensive than the one team model used in TC.

    Yeah. That Nuesbacher guy really knows his stuff and he's entertaining as hell if ya ask me. I would actually LIKE to sit in on one of his lectures at RMA Sandhurst, then again I'm a war history buff.

    In a $$$$$ point of view the production cost of having 2 teams would probably be astronomical. I'd be hella' fun tho to be on a team. Or even be a behind the scenes controler of the enemy army.

    Oh....the bloodshed of the incopentent teams of rookies that have NO understanding of how the game works. Not to mention they have no grasp of tatical movement. The thing that makes me laugh at the teams on Time Commanders is that they would sometimes charge up to the battle or the ongoing melee and then.........STOP SHORT AND WALK TO THE FIGHT.
    I sit and watch and say.....

    "OMFG...what are you DOING???"

    And then I laugh at the stunned faces of the team
    "Why are we getting slaughtered??"
    "I dunno'."

    LOL
