Make the board a very large counter. Give it does not stack trait and also give it a invisible trait (possibly masked slight transparency so Fed player can see it) with key command to reveal later. If counters and such are going to be placed on this map, may also want to add a dynamic property to control its game piece layer, keeping it on the top GPL until revealed and then once revealed have the DP change to match the bottom GPL. Doing this will let the Fed player place pieces on the board still but not be visible to opponent because of being stacked 'underneath' the invisible board counter until the player reveals it

I'm a newbie working on a module for Star Viking... In the game, I have boards that are only visible to the Federate player at the beginning of the game, but later both players can play on them. What would be the best way to simulate that? Thanks, Daniel [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
