Re: The Middle Way 2 - Faerun EA [Recruiting]
It's true that the map is rather huge... That doesn't change the fact though, that with something like 40% of provinces there is no quarantee that the winner is in an utterly dominant position.
In the late stages of the game, on large maps, winning isn't just a matter of skill, but also of endurance. If there are no victory conditions it's not uncommon that the few remaining empires agree to allied victory simply because they balk at the amount of work going to war would be. Is that a bad thing? Don't know really.
If owning more than half of all provinces is too much, then VPs are better, since it's easier to grasp what exactly is needed to win.
