I think in this game though it is fair that who owns the vp sites need to be declared openly.
The vp locations are all in one area and we do not all have equal access to them early. It is possible on this map to have become large and powerful but still have no direct access to the vp sites nor the power that is taking them.
No one seems to have gone for the vp sites early on, though that seemed a viable option. By now it would have been possible for a power to have built up a big VP score and we have not yet entered the late game (I hope
) so many powers don't have easy access to cloud trapeze/teleporting Thugs and SCs at this point.
In short the victory conditions highly favour those who started close by them. Keeping who holds them secret just increases that advantage in this case.
