There are 10 capitals (with VPs) and 10 indy VPs. The thought was that each nation would get one indy in addition to thier cap. It looks like it may work out that some get two and others get none. This is not good, but also not terrible - it just means wars will be more furious.
Apologies for my slow turning. I am used to the Artifacts Game which is suuuuuuuuuuper slow. I will pay more attention from now on.
I don't mind the vps. Everyone is just going to have to know where they need to get to now. (Or if they want, they can go expand in the opposite direction and hope they build up enough strength to roll in the mid-game).
Yeah, I'm just saying it's double-plus frustrating as Ulm... "You can't spend more than 100 gold on your units. And aha! You don't even get all of your units! But look! At least Urgek, Beast Brother is selling his services..."
