Sounds good! I was about to make a recommendation, but it looks like you
already covered my thoughts by saying, "[Island] G.M.'s will create rules
that govern their island. Such as dealing with combat, etc." I presume the
"Over-Rules" you mention will just be a short list of rules that hold the
overall game together and offer continuity without restricting the Island
GMs too much?
I am glad that the style of play in SS appeals to you enough to make a go of
it in another of my favorite themes*. I encourage the others with
CastleQuest to continue their development, but maybe D.A. is really what my
own personal tastes were looking for. Feel free to keep me involved with
any discussion on this idea. :)
*(Now to get the Townies to make a modern espionage RPG in the same style
hahahah!) ;)
