- Steve, look at the record of this battle. you need to do something so that the players are not tempted to do what I did.

- Rabid likes doing something similar with Rocket Launchers. Game over before your first turn. Not sure if you can prevent this tactic without ruining the game?

- One reason I put a two-layer wall around the start position was to try and prevent this, but it looks like it needs to be about 4 layers thick! Any other suggestions?

- can the first move be made with a limited number of action points? it wouldn't leave chance for a big attack, and would allow all the players to get ready, at least throw smoke grenades. The second option is to limit the budget for weapons. now very rarely anyone buys a heavy laser or a knife. limited budget wouldn't ruin this map

- I'm against a lower budget for weapons, tight as it is. Be no fun. I reckon Steve more walls, blocks. Might be fun with more structures. Could do a CC/ close combat version as well with low credit. But original Battle Royal needs guns and things that go bang.

- Or another idea, how about placing more walls around the middle, sprinkled intermittently?

- Yep I like that idea, a lot more walls and blocks in centre area.

- I'm not sure blocks in the centre area would have helped in this situation? Or do you mean the "centre top", "centre bottom" etc...?
I've thought before about reducing the APs for the player who goes first, as they often have an advantage. It would give the other players chance to at least move their units before a sudden slaughter. I might test that out. Posted by
