Title: Mentally Preparing for A Free For All

    Free For All's. I hate them. People love them. What's new. The Free For All is an interesting concept where it is every player for themselves vs every player for themselves. Jesus, a ton of strategy involved in that huh? Well.. to mentally prepare for a Free For All you need is to be as tough as the Dallas Stars were in Game #6 of the Stanley Cup Finals(BTW, Dallas won the Stanley Cup). So, on that note let's go into some of the mental works of a Free For All, and the preparation needed to play one with some level of success.

    A Free For All is something that people love in a strategy game for a few reasons. First of all, the more people you have in a Free For All the more fun there is involved. Secret Alliances could be merged, backstabbing could occur all of the things that makes a game interesting would be included in a Free For All. However, there's also chaos involved because you've got instead of two sets of 4 people, you have 8 people all against each other. This is a reason I'm against the Free For All system, you will have people who are attempting to do some things in a Free For All which will not make it fun, or make it as entertaining to play. The concept is accurate but the execution of it is off.(my opinion).

    However, there are a large majority of people who love FFA's so i'm going to tell you how to prepare for this. Your goal in this game is to be the last survivor out of the bunch. There are a lot of possibilities on how to execute this and it is all up to you on which one of these methods you would wish to include. Let me detail these possibilities for you in the coming sentences.

• Method #1: Keeping out of Harm's Way- Heheh. I love this method, true I hate Free For All's but I love the method! The whole purpose behind this method is to stay very quiet and build up a large force that will allow for you to take over a few people later on in the game. At the beginning's you remain very defensive and quiet! =) This will cause for your opponents to wonder what your truly going to do in the game, but it's effectiveness can be deadly and mystifying. =)
