A couple of us in the local club have become interested in Saga. We want to try some group games to get more people involved. As a social group we want to have multiple players on a side, not just a series of 1 to 1 games around the room. This seems a good way to get people involved. Maybe later we can try tournament play. So, who can suggest ways of doing multiple player games? Point to any sites with ideas? Thanks much, Bobgnar |

There is a scenario in the book for a four player game. You could also do four points per person and play as allies on each side. |

Personally I don't think Saga is that good for multiplayer games. But if you are going to do it, then each player should have their own force with their own battle board. |

We have done exactly that with Saga and really had fun with it. Each player had their own board and we found the system seems to handle different size forces for each player well. E.g. a couple of 4pt forces versus one 8pt worked well. The smaller force had access to more abilities (each player being able to use the once per turn abilities) and more dice whereas the larger force was more robust and was able ti deploy bigger units. All of our multiplayer games have been fun |
