When I was in high school we used to play a game in phys-ed. class called CTF but it was played with 3 flags in each base, the flags were usually next to eachother (2 bases in total), 2 teams of anywhere between 5-8 people (but was played with equal number of players per team), 1 base per team. The goal of the game was to try and take all the enemy flags back to your base. Which ever team had all the opposing team's flags in their base first won the game.
The rules of the game were:
- If you were attempting to grab the enemies flag or carrying their flag and was tagged by the enemy you had drop the flag if you had it and go to "jail" (even if you didnt have the flag) where you were placed in a spot within the enemies base and had to wait for a teammate to come tag you and let you back into the game. (evidently you had a better chance of getting the enemy flag and bringing it to your base if you had less teammates in jail because you would have a better chance at rushing the enemies base)
- The enemy could only tag you if you were in their base if you didnt have a flag. But if you had one of their flags it was fair game for them to tag you anywhere to try and retrieve the flag.
- If you were tagged by the other team you had to drop the flag and either your teammates could pick it up or the enemy team could retrieve it and return it to its default location in their base.
- Once the other team had your flag in their base, it was taken out of the game meaning that you could not retrieve it and bring it back.
- If you were to try and steal a flag a person could only carry one flag at a time and could not take 2 or 3 of the enemies flags at once. BUT your teammate/teammates could follow behind you and take a flag. (The amount of flags stolen by a team at any given time is irrelevant and is allowed but the amount of flags stolen by an individual at a time was restricted to one)
- If you have an enemy flag in your hand and you headed back to your base, you were not allowed to pick up another enemy flag if your teammate dropped it but you could tag the enemy if they were trying to get back to their base with your flag. (tag in this game would be more like frag in AC)
- To prevent people from camping at their base for the whole match you could implement a time limit where they would be forced to leave their base or respawn elsewhere.
- If you are tagged by the enemy team and forced to drop the flag, the enemy can pick it up if they reach it before one of your teammates and return it back to their base to its default location.
- People who didn't abide by the rules were taken out of the game
- The winner was determined when a team had captured all the opposing teams flags and brought them to their base.
This to me would be something I would find interesting if someone could make a game mode based around the game I played in high school.
