So, I had an interesting idea... I thought that maybe we as a community could build a single setup, with each member picking the individual position of 1 piece within the setup. Obviously, we will need 40 members to participate in order to complete the setup.
Perhaps when it’s done we could have someone volunteer to play a match with it and post a video with commentary on YouTube lol. I will start off with the first piece, which will be the location of the flag. The next person to comment on this thread will get to choose the next piece, and so on. I’ll try to use Morx’s Board Editor and keep posting pictures of the setup as it progresses.
Here is what it looks like now:

I'll place a bomb at J1.
It may be awhile to get 40 people...
?

Might be better to not require 40 unique participants, but make it that one can't post two pieces in a row.

We are off to a good start so far, but if the interest dies down, then this will probably be something I’ll do. Maybe if we reach a week without a new piece, I will allow everyone to pick additional pieces.
I’d be willing to play a few games with the setup and share on YouTube as long as the setup isn’t a guaranteed loss.
The setup isn’t looking too crazy so far lol. I chose the flag first so that we wouldn’t get stuck with a front row flag in the middle lane or something lol. You will have first dibs on recording the game. It’s obviously not an obligation though, so don’t feel like it’s something you have to do, if you change your mind. Thanks for volunteering!
Solid choice! Now our flag isn’t as vulnerable, which is always good. One thing I feared when I picked my flag spot was that there wouldn’t be much protection from Scouts.
Here is the current setup:

I guess we can all start picking additional pieces if that’s what you guys want. I wanted to get as many community members involved as possible, but I suppose we can always just make additional setups if we finish one quickly. I’m still not going to allow people to pick 2 pieces in a row, though.
After Nortrom’s second choice, I suppose I will go ahead and close the flag.
Here is what our setup looks like now:

Can I make a suggestion that two people who have placed units can agree to switch their two pieces with one another’s? Things will get messy and you may find you are stuck putting pieces in bad positions towards the end. That being said, it may be a good idea to have a list of everyone and where they have their piece placed to make this work properly, if you choose to allow this.

Good suggestion! I’m not sure how things will work for these setups yet. I’d like to complete the first one before I start adding a bunch of rules, though. Definitely something I will consider in the future. Since these are community setups, I might just make a poll and let people vote on whichever rules they would like to see added and whatnot.
On a unrelated note, I came across your YouTube channel somewhat recently and I was a bit disappointed that it doesn’t seem to be active anymore... Do you plan on marking any more videos? The old forum went down before I had a chance to ask, so I figured I may as well ask now.

Fairway also put a Lieutenant on E3 already. Feel free to chose a different location though, if you’d like.

Another scout could be placed at D4
