Default Re: RAND REDUX

I'm gonna put in a vote for Cap-VPs. They're important enough provinces that doming them isn't unreasonable once it's late enough in the game where a teleport strike force could happen, and they'll come with a fort unless someone goes crazy with the whole scorched earth thing. Unforted VPs just beg for aerial assault.

A province % would also be fine, though I'd prefer to see a "take and hold for 3 turns" condition with a reasonable % instead of having to set the % artificially high to make a teleport scenario impractical. Obviously this means there would have to be some hand-counting going on since the game ends immediately otherwise.

I like the cap idea best though, it's more fun having actually important provinces to protect instead of just getting hit by 10 ghost riders and teleporting raiders a turn as the whole world tries to keep your prov count down late game =)
