Hi guys and girls!

Does anyone know of a way to create a custom scenario whereby all of the players start in random positions but one of those players (or an AI) begins the game with a different number of troops to the rest of the players? It is simple enough to do if you want fixed locations of course.

I believe you need to have fixed locations, as you mention.

Possible workaround is using reinforcement cards, were a player(s) is not allowed to use it. (AI will use it btw, so it works for SingelPlayer) Combined with Automatic distribution this should work.

Disadvantages:

• Through this is based on trust, of course... You might want to make it public whenever someone plays a card.
  
• If Players start with more then 1 territory, the cards allows him/her/it to freely place the armies, (e.g 20 on one, instead of fixed 10 on each. Other players start with 5.)

That's as near-perfect a workaround as I'm going to get I think TBest, thanks very much. If anyone else has any ideas, I'd still love to hear them!
