Re: calling all players
Actually, it's quite playable in "basic form" and far from "unbalanced" ... just some effects which expert players could exploit.
Starting with 30 prov/player is much worse: the micromanaging nightmare kills the game before turn 40.
But it looks like every noobie has make the same error - starting games which get too tedious to play them to the end.
