That's what I'm hoping for. The core of it is the changes to magic and site frequency. This lets the game jump right to mid-game action - but not proceed past it to a traditional end-game. Most of the other things could be changed easily if they prove unpopular and some were dictated by the small size of the map (which I thought was a good idea both so that if the game settings don't prove to be fun it won't take too long to finish and because I didn't think this would be the most popular game ever posted ).

Also, I just want to make sure everyone understands that if you conquer an opponent's fort you don't (in fact, can't) tear it down. In a normal game you almost inevitably have more forts than you can afford to recruit mages from. That won't be the case here (unless you take *really* bad scales). If you begin a war evenly matched with your opponent at 3 forts each and they take one of your forts you'll be at a significant disadvantage since they will now have 4 recruitment centers to your 2 - regardless of how much gold they have available.
