Here's a...weird idea.

What if, I (or someone else) sets up a Picture Wars match, but with a Territory War gimmick. Like Planetside 2 or For Honor, there would be a central control map, divided up into Territories. Each territory is a map where a battle can take place. Each factions gets one starter territory, and can take other maps. Disputes will take place on the battle maps, and the winner will get that territory.

To give two better examples, here is the For Honor: Territory War trailer, and here is a continent outline I drew in under five minutes, but still gives a half-decent idea of what I mean.

I desire, for whatever reason, to create Space Louisiana.

As much as it seems fun. It is impossible, basically because of how much PW battles take time and I know because it has been tried before. My faction game also will have a map and everything but no PW battles.

Oh, okay. It might be able to be done with a smaller map, but I get your point.

When are you setting up the Faction War game?

I don't mind it, but I feel like it'll definitely get lost.

I'm looking for someone who is good at roleplaying and would like to be the second gm for the upcoming second faction game (the first one died).

I'm up for it. Might not be able to do any GMing very often, though. The next few weeks are going to be pretty busy for me.

Probably this week. The thame is still going to steampunk, but less sci fi. We are discussing stuff with EpicJ. We also have a map this time! It is gonna be much more focused on expansion and growth and you are basically starting at the beginning, but there will be a way to use your empire.

Umm... Something tells me that we won't be starting the faction game this week, but do not worry. We are onto it.
