Pacing doesn't work for me. Slow and missing a turn is brutal. Dropping out.

I'm going to finish making the session I was planning, with a modified version of this map, and save it for later if/when the time is appropriate.

On September 5th alone, Forum Platoon took 17 actions. That wasn't a peak AFAIK, just the first turn with 4 players. The game lasted another 15 days.

I think at the current rate, our descendants will be playing FPII. If people are having fun, so be it. But I'll be saving a draft and putting it in a time capsule.

This map is huge.

This really is a long game. But that's what you guys wanted, so, so be it.

I think it´s not completely clear yet what happens if you build a wall that closes off a teleporter.

Two possible rules:

1. you can't do that
2. you can and it will block the teleporter on that side for everyone except for you

What option do you prefer?

I vote for 2, as it makes walls useful for something.



Also I'd like to mention that I like the slower pace of this game because it means I actually have a chance to do something.
