A New Approach
Greetings all. Let's start with a little backstory. If you have had the priviledge of reading The Jedi Order's Major Faction Application this month, good for you. Inside you'll find a very inspired group of like-minded people with a whole new approach to playing The Map Game. For myself, after having read their application I quickly did two things. 1. I reread the Victory Conditions for winning an Invasion. And 2. I discovered I need to rethink the way I teach my IC students how to PvP.
How do you teach PvP now?
History lesson time. In the past I've taught many different types of PvP to my IC students to better prepare them for winning battles. Mostly, this meant 1v1 turn-by-turn dueling for Force Users and Fleeting for non-Force Users. Win your duel or fleet engagement and you've done your job. That was what a Jedi Master taught the Padawan. That was what an Admiral taught the Captains. And it worked for me. For years.
However. Today on Chaos the aim and goal for FU PvP has changed. The Victory Conditions are different. Today we have teamwork, story, and no drama for Victory Conditions. Among others. Which, is something I've never actually taught to any IC student... Probably ever. So this old fart needs some help from all you new kids and Major Faction Owners out there. Indeed. This next question can be view IC or OOC. I just want your honest opinion.
Q: Um... So... How do you teach PvP now?
