Yes, it would be really long. Sometimes I forget that I’m not 22 years old anymore with all the time in the world for gaming… Still, I can’t help but think how much fun it would be.
The idea of having dummy chips is a good one. That reminds me – John/Mark - where do you get the chips for this game? Going to various stores all I can find are full-sized poker chips. I already raided my old A&A game, but find myself still needing more of the white one.
We’ve already discussed making the construction tables secret – I think this is something that we’re eventually going to do.
I think it would also be a good idea to have a gearing limit like they have in WiF. I always thought that was one of the more realistic things in that game. You couldn’t just say “whoops – I’m going to need some armor – I better build some. We don’t have much of an issue with this for things like armor and aircraft, but it happens a lot with infantry. You might see someone build 2 one turn, 8 the next, back to 2, etc. In real life you couldn’t just hop from producing one item to producing another item - switching from building a lot of one item to a lot of another item would require a lot of retooling and down time.
