Teammate, the third game in the series, is looking for players. As should be known by now, in these team games each player controls 2 powers. The games are played on a slightly altered modern map, called modern-up, where the borders between the Atlantic sea spaces were redrawn and Ulster was added.

If you check out the second game, team-up, still on-going, you may notice that neighboring teams offer a certain advantage, as demonstrated by Russia-Germany. Italy-Spain however were not that successful, in part because France(-Egypt) was able to keep them separated.

In this third game, all teams will consist of neighbors. For those who argue that home centers alone gave a considerable advantage to Russia-Germany, they may review that as Russia is again coupled with another 4-power center and fellow corner power, Britain. But they're up against Poland-Ukraine (the Commonwealth), Germany-Italy, and the two corner power teams of France-Spain and Egypt-Turkey. Definitely not a walk in the park.

Sign up and get going. Up, up, up, up, ...

Mario.
