Farsightedness: The Butterfly Effect states that a butterfly that flaps its wings in Malaysia could cause a typhoon in British Columbia. So too could minor variations in one part of the board affect play across the board. The Captain of Watch asesses the board for all possible impacts - both immediate and long-term.

Samy,

that's a pretty map. Where did you get the bottom layer from?

I really like the sound of the fleet and walls rules.

Have you thought of adding a Barbarian power to the North? Seems to me like a good idea.

I'm concerned central powers such as Wei face too great struggles. Perhaps you can give those say one more unit...?

Neutral SCs should IMO generally be grouped in clusters. To create fertile battlegrounds.

In any case, please sign me on as an observer should you get a playtest underway.

Hi everyone. I recently joined DC (to play a game of 1648 ), and I've been mulling over a new variant for a while. I'd always wanted to make a variant set in China, and finally put together a first version. Please have a look:

Feedback is welcome! And of course I'll be wanting to playtest this sometime soon...
