What happens in a 6 player assassin game if one of the players gets kicked out for not taking his third turn?

What happens to the player who was trying to assassinate him?

Many thanks

Inherits his target.

(if yellow is chasing green, and green is chasing blue, when green deadbeats then yellow's new target is blue.)

That's one of the reasons I stay away from Assassin games.

Advice needed

I have a set of three games currently where my opponent wont finish the games. He has had opportunities to finish me off but wont. What is the best way to deal with this?

Thanks

Post a new thread at this link and follow directions - if talking to the opponent directly fails.

I'm curious how long It usually takes a new training game, after a secong player joins, to fill up? Not rushing, just curious :)

Depends on a lot of things. Sometimes they fill in a day, sometimes a week or two. That sucks when you've only got 4 slots, I remember. Send a PM to tamaynet and see if he can stir the pot. He can send a message to the whole academy to get the open games filled. You can also message the teaching staff, and we don't mind jumping in if needed.

Hi there!

I want to play a game, first time since ten years.

I do not know what polymorphic means, how is that playing?

Poly games are like team play, but with only 2 players. In a 4v4 poly game, you are red, green, blue and yellow, and your opponent is pink, orange, cyan, and silver.

In an escalating game, we attack when eliminating the target will create the snowball effect of spoils. Cash in, take out the next, cash in, take out the next, and so on. You want the reward in spoils to be greater than the expected loss of troops required to get the spoils.
