Re: The New Endgame

I'm still not sure that you need a new game piece, I think it'd be a cool option to make an alliance take a risk with their current game piece. Then you don't need special rules for the game piece. It's less confusing for the spectators and still adds that level of suspense that doesn't necessarily confuse people. Also, it wouldn't require teams to build additional mechanisms. It seems to be a perfect blend of the two schools of thought, if I do say so myself.

As a side note, I personally did miss the endgame as a way to swing matches, it just wasn't always a very exciting endgame.
