Default Re: YARG - Yet Another RAND Game [Uploading pretenders]

The game will always involve quite a bit of luck, no matter how much you try to avoid this. That said, I am happy with ano attempting to make the starting locations as balanced as possible. I'd like to see the final version of the map we will use. I will be satisfied with it almost certainly. I am ready to get started on this map, too. Nothing will ever be perfectly balanced. I think that is part of the fun of the game, and spending too much time on attempting to accomplish the impossible is a lesson in futility.

I don't think it's a good idea to try to nerf Ermor to the point that they are playable in a game like this. I vote to simply keep them out of this and future RAND games. It seems easier than putting artificial constraints on them like a dominions cap or a more valuable capital for VP. Keep R'lyeh out, as well. Don't try to hobble them in some way just to include them. This is a clugy and stilted solution to something that is not a problem.
