@betiko, Yes.
I am not a mapmaker. Just throwing out a suggestion, not sure anybody has even contemplated this before.
I am sure there are plenty of people (map makers) that are Creative enough and have a vivid imagination to attempt something like this.
I can think of a few good reasons why a game board such as this might be created.
I did write up a lengthily Example (all lost).
I am not going to go through with that again. If a map maker think it plausible he can drop me a line and I might be able to share some ideas with him.
Or I might post here again (in the near future) if I have some time.
It has to do with a big Dog (player, bot, neutrals) controlling the board.
Little Dogs (Multi-Singles) enter the Board (Placed on the board, no matter) having to stop the big Dog from Eliminating them before 'one' of them (little Dog) Eliminates him.
Big dog Eliminates four out of five players...the fifht player gets to the Big dog and eliminates him. All the little dogs (eliminated or not) win.
The big Dog controls the board with huge amounts of Neutrals (or bots) on terits...so as to block the path to the Big dog.
Only way to clear path is with (nuke)Spoils (or collecting huge bonuses).
The little Dogs are not going to have Spoils, Terit bonuses available to every player. Some will have one other will have something else to contribute to the Gang in order to get to the Big dog.
You could have Treachery involve. One little dog left in the game He takes out da big dog and Either can claim victory for the entire group or for himself alone. Little dogs still alive can go after the new big dog.
Much more involved than I can articulate.
Can be done (not sure about the bots) with Neutrals and big dog controlling certain aspects of the board.
Anyway...just an Idea. I have never liked cooperative games...
