How do people feel about the clustering? I would be willing to re-start if they think its too much? The key question is: will it be any better the next time around? And unfortunately I did not save off your pretenders this time around so it would require a re-upload.

hey ironhawk is it true that there are indy VP's, because its really hard to count them all - but at least a couple of them don't seem to be paired w/ another close by...

No opinion on restart - my position is middling.

My guess is that a number of those are player's home provinces, which means that they'll be fighting it out pretty quick.

Not sure that it'll be any better next time - Dom2's code is pretty horrible about how it places VPs and capitals.

I'm okay with continuing (and no, I'm not in that clustered area

), or with restarting. (If we do restart, you should probably save the pretenders and restart until it seems decent.)

With 20 VPs (stated in the threads first post), there'd kinda have to be indy VPs.

so really, you can win without taking out a single enemy capital

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).

The mighty spider nation has no need for no stinking laboratory! feh!
