Default Re: New Game PBEM

Well you can set X number of provinces as being worth victory points. Each VP province can be worth 1, 2 or 3 vps.

You can then set whether or not capitols are worth VPs.

Then we decide how many victory points aplayer needs to hold. If it is non cumulative then the player wins when they hold enough victory points for a full year. Setting it to cumulative just means the game will be shorter. I am not a fan of cumulative.

Even with victory points we can set them so it would still be challenge to win.

For example we can have capitols worth 1 VP
(so that right there is 21 VPs on the map)
20 provinces worth 1 VP
5 worth 3 VPS

Then set it so that a player needs to hold 15 VPs to win.

You would still need to be dominating the game to win but it scatters the conflict around the map instead of concentrating it at home keeps.

I think you have greater chance of multi nation conflicts in the same turn fighting for the same province with such a setup.

I wish my wraparound version of Glory of the Gods was ready.
