The message board at
http://network54.com/Hide/Forum/48065 has some ideas
about multiplayer play of KoDP. I have another: each player plays a member
of a clan's ring. Best played on the Internet. Interaction would be a
large part of the game, though leaders in particular situations would have
to make their own decisions.
I've done similar things in table-top RPG's, and always found it to be
great fun.
