Ok - so CoG gets special treatment. Where does this end?
Guys, you just started the whirlpool that never ends. If you take one game and give it special treatment you end up with a club where no one will be happy about their points.
Ok, so I am into a game of The Battle of Austerlitz. Its a large battle. So why is someone who plays a smaller scenario several times for the same amount of game turns getting MORE points than me?
See what I mean?
Some of us that started this club are a bit disappointed in how this is turning out.
I can already see why this was done too. We have guys we want to lure over here so we change the rules to placate them.
Now I am not upset. I am just saying that a precedent has been made. For YEARS folks have been talking about getting the size factor addressed and it was always "no need for change" in that regard.
My feeling: It was fine as it was. No need to placate the gamers of CoG. If they will bitch about the length issue they are going to be at your door the next time they find something they do not like comes to their attention.
Many of us have been playing the full battles and accepting the scoring format for years. My call: enjoy the games. That is GMT Games motto. I prefer it much more to "spend tons of hours deciding how to score a game."
Now off to make a huge map for a JTS Nappy game ....
Man will this sucker be a fun one to play once I get it out the door (I seem to keep on adding more and more to it - never seem to find the bottom of the pit ...).
