Tired of seeing the same factions? Try a SNAKE BAN.

Trying to fine tune an idea for Milty pool refining. This will just proceed to the end of the Milty draft.

The SNAKE BAN idea:
6 players sign up as usual for a 7/7 Milty. Before the milty draft is created, players have a chance to affect the faction pool. The procedure is as follows:

  1. Assign each player a number and randomise the order.
  2. In order, players pick one faction to ban from the pool and one to keep. A kept faction cannot be banned by a proceeding player.
  3. In reverse order, each player picks another faction to ban.
  4. Add the 13 unbanned factions to the Milty pool and start the draft.

List of factions for reference: https://twilight-imperium.fandom.com/wiki/Factions

This could be a good way to have some control over drafts, or it could result in drafts that are too boring and samey. Let's find out!

I just lost a game to snakes yesterday… again

It was in person so felt more visceral

Anyway I can’t join any new games now so I’ll stop cluttering your post - have fun with your draft and BAN THE SNAKES IN THE SNAKE BAN IT’S ONLY APPROPRIATE
