Anyone playing this game? I played a few games, but it seems to me like it's extremely imbalanced.
In the rule book there is a scenario (only scenario in the game) where three objectives are placed on the map. One near the starting point of each player and one in the middle. If you conquer an objective you get income, which basically means more troops and your troops fight better as you can pull of crazy stunts with income. It's a race to the middle objective. So far so good.
But the prussians have an ability to move twice as fast as the French. In every game I played the prussians rushed to the middle. As they move at double speed it just so happens that they sit on double the income as soon as they get there (2objectives to 1french objective), with the French still far away. It goes without saying that the prussians player is able to bring in more reinforcements and dish out a lot more harm than the French from then on.
It feels like there is just no "game" or strategy happening. Any contrary experiences? Am I missing something?
Thanks to everyone for the help.
Just want to add: I don't want to belittle the game, it is in it's early stages.i guess a lot more will come. I really hope I just overlooked something in the rules.
