6 of the 7? oh yeah, we missed out Sacred Ground. :oops:

how about we add that to the list of options next time round? (i dont think we should add any more than that though until we have covered all the "Key Building" ones)

thoughts?

That sounds okay, but I see nothing wrong with getting a list of future objectives going.

BTW-we decided on 6 to start so we could throw a die to choose the first competition strategem. :wink:

My idea was that the winner of the objective marker competition would come up with a theme to replace that which was just used. For example, say that I won the Fuel Dump competition. I could then replace "Fuel Dump" in the list of themes with "Listening Post" or "Holy Site". This would keep the list with six unused options, and then a D6 could be rolled so that the final theme is still random. It would also allow the users to come up with their own unique theme ideas.

oops, i think everyone misunderstood you then. :oops: :lol:

the way we have been doing it so far seems to be working though (plus you have been getting the credit for its success :P) - the winner being able to choose the next category not only serves as a prize, but also means no-one has to roll a dice every time. personally, i suggest we carry on as we have been, except:
- we add Sacred Ground to the list in time for the next comp (after the one that has just started)
- we work out another list of Objectives for once the 7 "Key Building" ones have all been done (maybe tackle a different kind of Strategem each time we need a new list - perhaps there could be a poll?)

sticking to CoD Strategems for theme ideas means that the markers can serve double-duty in our games, if we want them to, which is a bonus.

cheers :)
