The below is a poll that I'm asking my players in a PBeM of SPI's "Outreach" to consider a rule mod. What is the general consensus of Listserv members?
---- Original Message ---- There is a rule which says no more than 4 Autonomous Forces may be in play. Considering 1) the original game was tied by the volume of counters that could be printed, 2) Cyberboard allows us to have more than four Autonomous Forces by redesign, and 3) I made eleven different colors of Autonomous Forces in the Gamebox. Poll Question #1: Should we exceed the normal limitation of four Autonomous Forces? (We've already exceeded the normal number of Players by one as well.) I also understand some Players have learned to "game" the Autonomous Force limit to their advantage (or disadvantage) by making sure someone else ends up with an Autonomous Force by timing the Fate roll. Eleven Autonomous Forces on the board could change that. I could also up the Autonomous Force limit to sixteen if I toss in unused Player colors. Poll Question #2: If Question #1 is approved should I use 10 or 16 Autonomous Forces? -- BT Tracy Johnson Justin Thyme Productions Ye olde free telnet games at: http://hp3000.empireclassic.com/ NNNN
