> Can anyone think of an excuse for the Nids to fight each other?
Back in my Ringworld campaign, (see Aaron's web pages for details)
I reasoned thusly:
The Ringworld has an automated defense system that dampens out any
starship weapons. Thus if you want to kill enemy troops on the Ringworld,
you have to land ground troops and engage them. This automated defense
mechanism also interferes with signals from the Hive Mind, and thus
sometimes one bug swarm will fight another without quite realizing
what it is doing. (The left hand literally doesn't know what the
right hand is doing.)
Anyway, this allowed one bug player to fight another in our campaign,
and stayed within the "flavour" of Ringworld -- even though the
defense system is a bit more effective than what is presented in the
novels.
