Being eliminated before your first move

This is a suggeston to lower the chances of being eliminated before a player's first move.


<Body>:

* Suggestion Idea:
I propose that the game is entirely unfair in 3v3(triples) ,4v4(quads) and only 2v2 (for doubles) that players can do nothing their first turn except deploy entirely on one player. This allows enemies to overtake an enemy before they even had a chance to attack.

Now I realize that this is a valid strategy, just take the doodle earth 8 player freestyle: It is almost designed for this strategy. However in team based games, this is unacceptable.

Before there was even a chance to move for game http://www.conquerclub.com/game.php?game=1609062, I was eliminated. This may seem like a random cry, but I believe that this should not be a valid strategy in 3v3 4v4 and doubles 2v2. One team will gain an advantage so fast, that the game becomes impossible for other players.


* Specifics:
I propose to limit the following game modes.: Triples, Quadruples, and 2v2 Doubles. The limit is that players can not place their units onto an ally. This does not limit fortifications though. Forts should be unlimited.

* Why it is needed:
This will allow some games when a certain group of players all abuse overwhelming too soon by not allowing players to get at least 1 set of troops.

tl;dr: In triples and quads and 2v2 doubles no more deployment into friendly teams units.

i don't fully understand what the point of team games would be if you couldn't deploy onto your teamates.

... Look in the game.... this is a sequential game. I was just using freestyle doodle as an example of where it is a encouraged. Which is why I pointed out my game where it is 3v3 sequential.

i read the whole friggin post i saw your game i KNOW it was a sequential game.

i was merely pointing out that since this is obviously bthering you SO much why dont you just create freestyle games or join last in a freestyle game and play your turn straight away!

The issue here is not so much that the game is flawed. But that the other team was better than you. Your teammates had a turn and could have likely prevented this if he tried.

Weighing in...

One might even go so far as to say you were 'killed with style'. Ha!

I agree. Your teammate should have seen it coming.
