Wiz8 co-op game idea!

[Zergs]

I had a random thought today about a way to play "multiplayer" wiz 8. I used to post actively on the Fall from Heaven 2 forums, which is a mod for civ4. Back then we used to play "succession" games, which were essentially single-player hot seat games where everyone took turns playing the same save file. Basically one person would play the save for ten game rounds and then email the file to the next player. It was pretty fun and we'd usually set them up with some kind of challenge or theme.

Anyone interested in something like this for wiz 8? If we have at least 6 players, each person would create one character without knowing what the other 5 are making. We could add some challenges or restrictions, like each player has to dual class at least one character while they own the save, different players have to train different skills, or whatever . Part of the fun of the ffh games was finishing your turn with some plan in mind, and getting the save back 50 turns later when your co-op partners took the game in a very different direction than you expected.

Might also be interesting to get some of us to try builds or play styles we normally wouldn't try

A Google Drive or some such free cloud seems like the best way to share files. I'd be willing to give it a try. At the very there will be some war stories for the forum.

That Idea is amazing, i wish to play like that with other people talking on discord.

OK, that's fine with me. Not everything has to be a mad science experiment.
