I'm going to be in Marlborough, Mass this weekend on business. I'll be free on Saturday night, and I'll probably be bringing my partner in tow (also an afol). If anybody is available that night, would love to meet up! Scott lyttle (21 years ago, 18-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

Okay, that's a good point, Joe. I guess I was more *thinking* that lower CPs translated into lower unit counts, and that's probably flawed. To be honest, I think what I'm driving at is how to make the game turn a bit quicker? More bang for the buck. (...) (21 years ago, 16-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.gaming.brikwars)

I have to agree with Joe. I used 1200cp (more than I was supposed to) for this game and I was able to finish all of my turns within 15 minutes. I did this by reducing the number of troops that I had to move, the number of attacks per turn, and (...) (21 years ago, 16-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.gaming.brikwars)

Actually, Shaun and Wayne, I think you've missed the important point. I don't think it has solely to do with small CP caps, but rather the number of units. While the CP limit can clearly influence the number of units you can create, in a game like (...) (21 years ago, 16-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.gaming.brikwars)
