Player controlled Biters vs Human builders

So i was thinking of this new mode for multiplayer in Factorio.

Basically you play normally as you would do in multiplayer with your friends building the base, but 1 player that is enemy and has "god vision" is controlling the biter army.

The player who controlls the biters can controll them and attack wherever they feel like to, so they could potentially guide the biters to the weak points of an base or attack weakly defended outposts.

As the builders build and make more factories and pollute more, naturally the player controlling the biters would also get a bigger and stronger army.

I think this could make for some really good fun playing with both friends and strangers in the factorio multiplayer.
