2 options that I can see; 1. Create owned game files, so that they can submit moves and you respond by revealing (or releasing ownership) of counters that have an invisible front.
2. Run two games generated from the same scenario. They can run one, and your GM copy has all the hidden objects. The benefit is there game moves also run on the GM game file, so half the work is done. You will then need to respond onto their game file with moves by placing newly discovered items. This is the way I play Flattop, which is very much a search and evade game. How many sides or players are there? Is it two teams with common knowledge, or each person has an individual view? --- Rob Koot <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thanks Mark, that will be very helpful. > Unfortunately it only solves half > my problem.
