Both cool suggestions. I think Tom is gonna have to hire another person soon just to keep up with all the features people keep suggesting for the site!

Rematch feature? Turn by turn rematch would better. This would be great option for a new creation, coming soon.

Is there a way to set it so that you can provide a scenario for up to 12 people, and if only 6 seats are left open, then the remaining 6 seats just become neutral?

Better yet, allow the players to pick their seats, and still revert the remaining seats to neutral.

I thought that was what happened...

Isn't that what happens with Lock colors to seat and Allow players to choose seat Rules?

So if I set a scenario for 12 players, and only allow 4 open seats, and allow players to choose seats... then the remaining parameters for the scenario which arrange 8 more players to specific territories become neutral?  

For example, if RiskyBack's Gauntlet were open with 3 seats, then the 4th player would just turn neutral?

I believe so, I think that's what happens in Viper's WarGeat SG-1.  Starting scenario is set for 4 players, but 2/3/4 are allowed.  Looks like if 2/3 then remaining turn neutral.  It doesn't have select color/seat enabled, but I assume it would work too.

Game with 2 players: http://www.wargear.net/games/view/34525 (History isn't working for me though...)

Yes, in Gauntlet if a person gets booted at invite then the character that remains becomes neutral.  It happened a few times in tournaments so I know this to be true.

Such great news.

Now this will work:

Yeah I have 4 seats setup in the scenario and if it's a 2 or 3 player game the leftover seats go neutral.  I don't have the seats locked so it's not always the same spot that goes neutral though.

Thanks for the mention Yertle!

Could we set it so that if a player has no units, no bonus, and no cards that player is eliminated from the game?   If possible, also give an elimination bonus to the player who takes the last unit?

You mean like a rule setting? Or that this should be the default behavior?

NOT DEFAULT!!!

I think this could have some negative affects to existing maps (Resident WarGear, Base 9, etc.) where it is possible to have no units/bonus (and possibly no cards) and still have a chance at winning and/or affect who wins.

Rule cool, Default nooooooo!

ditto

I'd make it a checkbox for players.  Though I think default works, since if you have no bonus and no units, you're out...

How is it ever possible to win with no units, no bonus, and no cards?

There is always the potential of a boot for the win.

Fair... a switch works perfectly.

I was thinking there still may be a  min bonus and/or per territory bonus that could be distributed.
