One last thing about the game settings.

1. Victory condition. My latest proposal was a hard limit of 12 VPs to win. Alneyan suggested to make this a soft limit. I talked to my son about this and he offered the following:
a. At 12 VPs (1/3), a player is allowed to claim victory in Council. If the nation has been honorable in achieving this goal, the wyrms could easily recognize this and award the victory.
b. At 17 VPs (1/2), victory is automatic.

2. Magic sites. This will stay at 50% since people made their Pretenders with this posted on the COW site.

A final note: There are 14 wyrms of the 16 pretenders I received. So there will be either 14 or 15 votes in the Council. I am hoping for 15 because it would be nice to have an odd number of votes for possible contentious issues.
