Just added this suggestion to the uservoice: Introduce a voluntary handicap systemPlaying newbies would be more fun for both of us if I had 1-2 flux less per turn. For example, when an unbalanced game starts, the more experienced player could be asked if he wanted to grant the newbie a handicap. Or, there could be a separate matchup where the newbie could opt to only play games with an automatic handicap. http://farwilds.uservoice.com/forums/58 ... cap-system

I also suggest giving the newbie a free creature (like an elven scout) or something like Treetop dominion at the start.

This is easy to set-up as a script.

True, but wouldn't you want to CHOOSE your handicap?

This can be done in two ways: either several scripts or one script with buttons at start that let's you choose handicap. Still - it's easy script.
The only problem that I see is that sometimes I get newbies in "Anyone" battle and in this case I can't use script.

All hail altren, master of scripts. God, I have a lot to learn. Anyway, what about entities on the map as a handicap?
