It'd be a large game though and turns would take a long time if you have say 4 skirmishes in one turn. Maybe have an option where both players could agree on not doing the tactical part, and then roll dice for it instead, to do small battles faster, and if one wanted tactical and the other wanted to do it fast, you could get the other players to judge or roll a flip a coin. |
