Erik,
Of course. They would have to? :chin:
It's a basic precept of game design. It works in both board and computer wargaming. :)
If I ever say, "you do the math", I will remember that
you do the math! :smoke:
Mike,
Thanks! I've taken to not "getting in someone's face" for not reading what has been written. I try to simply re-quote the parts they seem to have glossed over, and package it to address their "new" comments/questions.
I used to have James Dunnigan's, wargame design book. I have been looking for it and cannot find it. In addition to being a good military historian, he was a great designer and developer for Avalon Hill and then SPI. (I think :chin:) He also designed a scenario for EFII? I've also seen him on news shows as an advisor. I even met him at some conventions over the course of years.
He's written about all that one would need to know concerning designing a game according to scale.
