Re: [s-d] New Subgame Idea...

[Daniel Lepage <dpl33@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Keeping track of the cards wouldn't be much more difficult than it was 
for the old Card Game. But it seems like this game wouldn't be all that 
different. I'm also wary of creating too many subgames. We already have 
Tiles and the Soul-Harvesting Semi-Subgame, and it looks like 
Cityscapes will be arriving soon. With too many more subgames they'll 
all fail, because nobody will have time to play all of them and each 
one will have too few players to be interesting.

If you try and take a cat apart to see how it works, the first thing 
you have on your hands is a non-working cat.
