I would like to ask that we do not implement this rule, as this decision was not announced prior to nation selection and is hugely material to team Noobheim.
I am of course concerned about human players taking flying SC pretenders and heading straight for the comps capitals, I do want to give them at least a fighting chance, 5 turns is nothing and you've plenty of time to design your gods while we wait for Gandalf. But I'll hear other opinions from other players, especially team captains on this matter. The distance is rather short between team caps as well, a flying SC pretender could make it in short order.

Chris, I've checked Grudge's account, see nothing out of the ordinary, and show him with 1 post already. I'll contact Grudge and see if we can work out exactly what the problem is.
