Just one more...and LD can do the draft between mowing  C'mon folks, you know you want to be a Warlord!!!
I'm not sure I have the bandwidth to add another Warlords game but I'm contemplating. I would definitely not be able to swing it if it were a Saturday game. Any problems with making it a Wednesday game? Oh, and I also have a slight preference for the one kingdom at a time selection but don't let that decide anything because I'm still not sure I can swing this game. One of my Warlords game may be ending soon so that would help matters for my inclusion.
I do like HH's point based selection system. I don't know if LD has moderated that type of selection before (JF did it for the game I am in that used this selection process). The selection began with all 4 players first submitting their preferences for their (A,B,C,D) selection grouping and after this was assigned the selection was done one kingdom at a time and the kingdoms were know. So we would know the teams from the get but obviously not the players. Made for a fascinating draft.

Would that be 32 by any chance?

I missed T19 in 32 and I was not going to win anyway so I got out of the way. I was EL/TR/UN. UN got hammered early (my first time trying UN) and the kingdom was a handicap the whole game...
I could have stayed in it but really lost my motivation when I missed the last turn. I was not going to win anyway.
The game where we used HH point formula is #35 I believe.

Good game by the way.
I'm looking forward to the write up.

I've no problem with HH's point-based system (as long as LD's cool with it). I'm also cool with Wednesday game. However, I want to stick with LD's format of submitting 4 picks each round, blind. Picking one nation at a time makes it easy to figure out the teams and that kind of defeats the entire point of anonymous. And drafting itself is a skill.

Any chance of making this Warlords game run on the 4/4/6 schedule? Might increase interest in the format.

Oh hell, my wife is going to kill me. But sign me up. I'll temporarily up my level to Victor to get in on this.
To be clear, I fully expect to get my ass handed to me! Should be fun!

Awesome!! I'll let LD know to begin the draft. If he's cool with it, we'll use HH's point-based system but submit four choices--in order of preference--for each round.
