We made a election themed Battle for America-esque game in Vancouver
This is our third Battle for America style game we've run in Vancouver! My girlfriend and I run them for our friends. This time we had 34 players.
Teams are "political parties" consisting of 7 squads each (a squad is a "Ben & Adam" type unit of 2-3 players).
Each "neighbourhood" is an electoral district worth a certain amount of "seats" (similar to electoral college votes for Americans)
Each pin on the map is a challenge (themed as voters that need assistance).
Doing the challenge earns you their votes (the harder the challenge the more votes its worth). Win a majority of votes and you claim the district. A majority of seats wins you the election.
There was also a "popular vote" bonus for the team that earned the most overall votes (so that teams who were in the middle of nowhere still had stuff to do if they couldn't get to a contested region)
The Red Team defeated the Blue Team!
