I seem to recall doing something like this back in '97-'98. It came down to choosing races from groups like this:

1) CA, IT, PP
2) WM, SS, SD
3) IS, JoaT, HE
4) AR

(I could be misremembernig the HE and 1 other, not sure)

Pick 1 race from each of 3 categories. less experienced players (if any) would be allowed to either choose a "group" for a more experienced player not in their clan after knowing what that experienced player wanted, or choose a specific race, or choose all of the LRTs of whatever race the more experienced player chose to play.

it was a pain for the host, who had to generate a lot of universes to get the grouping right, but the gameplay was fantastic once it got going. IIRC, the PP/SS/IS team won, using superior hit&run tactics against the CA/WM/JoaT team in the end. Hard to fight what you can't see...

just my thoughts on a nice Sunday afternoon outside the city of brotherly love.
