Looks like it should be a good game. Are you making ant adjustments to the rules or using them as is? |

Pretty much straight out of the book. the only change we made was to treat units as full strength until they are BELOW half strength instead of Half or lower, it gives units a bit more staying power |

Good idea. I was actually thinking of a turn ending with a failed activation. I have heard of people hosting convention games doing away with it. |

I plan on dividing each side into two forces, that way a failed Activation only ends one player's turn. We have tested that option in games here and it works well. I also make it a point to stress to new players "Do the easy things first" |
