Proposal: Groups and such

Vetoed by Excalabur.—Chronos

Updated to change to ‘veto’ rather than fail

Adminned at 23 Aug 2005 10:52:40 UTC

Add a rule “Groups” with the following wording:

If a Player owns two or more Squares with consecutive numbers, and those Squares have at least one Colour (except Beige) in common, that player may choose to make those Squares into a Group, at a cost of B$5 per Square..  This new Group may then be named by the Player.  No two Groups may have the same name.

Squares may be added to a Group at any time, unless another Rule prohibits it, for the same cost.

Squares may be removed from a Group at any time unless another Rule prohibits it.  This action refunds B$3.

Groups are tracked in the World, next to the Square listing.

Add the following text to rule 13.7.1 “Rent”:

If the Square is part of a Group, the rent is multiplied by the number of Squares in the Group.

And before someone complains about there being no colour green in the ruleset: Add the colour Green, with code Gn, to rule 13.1 “Colour Coding”.

Actually, i think i’m going to say veto to this one.  It could lead to serious imbalance, especially with the clumping of property that’s already occuring.

It looks like it was going to fail anyway, so this isn’t that big a deal.
