Folks,

A friend asked when I ws decribing the game why there is no overall initiative to see who goes first in a turn. I realize that it probably couldnt be addedd at this point of things, but I am curious, was this considered?

I think it would cause some pretty severe game design issues to have a side possibly going twice in a row, it would pretty much break a lot of the systems in the game and I don't see what it would add.

Eric,

I agree that at this point it wouldnt be do able. We were just thinking that with all the rest of the initialtive related flow/vibe of the game , that seems to be the one thing that would have made sense, that was'nt added.
