The Team Play Variant must be played as a 2 vs. 2 game (with two teams of 2), or with the Order & Chaos Expansion as a 2 vs. 2 vs. 2 game (with three teams of 2) or as a 3 vs. 3 game (with two teams of 3). Players should decide their alliances before starting the game. These alliances will be permanent and cannot be broken. Members of the same alliance should not sit next to each other, and their seats should be alternated. So, the seating order should look like this:

2 vs. 2

2 vs. 2 vs. 2

Requires 5-6 Player Order & Chaos Expansion

3 v. 3

Requires 5-6 Player Order & Chaos Expansion
