Lobby enforced all random

Potentially an unpopular idea but it'd just be a host option assuming it's possible.

Enforce all players to random faction.

Just kick people who don't do it. Your lobby your rules.

kicking and arguing with people adds toxisity imho. and wastes time. would be nice if they just could not change faction and can choose to leave if they don't like it.
Tho ofc it defends on how easy it is to implemets

literal genocide

Enforce random factions!?

I feel like this was a personal attack on me.

I would support this if templates being saved across factions was on by default. But it’s not (why)

In AOE2 you can select a <<force random>> option on/off and if more than half the players in a game select it then everyone in the game is forced to play random.

Also, in addition to the civs and the regular Random options, there are other options like Mirror, which gives you the same civ as your opponent (mirrored slot in teamgames).

I think adding the force random option and the Mirror option would both be reasonable.

dudes realize we’re on the verge of uef being playable and they’re shivering in their timbers
