i know the point is to have it be random, but some settings will just lead to build games..


can you add a rule that will make a game void if it goes past a set number of rounds?

I don't see the point of replaying it, the game is basically over as it is.

If matched up in a freestyle game, use the following method to win (approved by moderators/JoshyBoy):

Take your turn last, then conquer as many territories/bonuses as possible. Don't worry about fortifying your borders; it's unnecessary for this "strategy". End your turn, and put a weight on the "b" key (using clickies). As soon as someone else begins their turn, you receive reinforcements for all your bonuses, and they never get a chance to break you. The best part is, you don't even have to be near a computer to get your bonuses. Just show up within an hour, and repeat. I wish everyone the best of luck employing this great new tactic.

Yep. Awesome loophole they left in the game, and requires little to no strategy if you can exploit it.
