Thought of a point scoring system to encourage more <br>
Thought of a point scoring system to encourage more <br>
elegant victories in <u>F.O.A.</u>
elegant victories in <u>F.O.A.</u> Score more points for <br>
capturing less of opponent's pieces according to  <br>
following table : -
 
<u>PC Captured --- Score</u> <br>
5-------------------7 <br>
6-------------------6 <br>
7-------------------5 <br>
8-------------------4 <br>
9-------------------3 <br>
10-----------------2 <br>
11-----------------1 <br>
Also a victory by depriving the other player of a  <br>
move also counts 1 point. (See below.) <br>
Played with Wald and saw that I'd have to change <br>
the scoring for a game ended by a player not being <br>
able to move. Instead the player gets the point <br>
value corresponding to the number of pcs. captured <br>
at the time. With the original rule a losing player <br>
could just scatter his pcs. to cut his loss. <br>
[ARROW FROM BELOW] Wald and Arthur liked it. <br>
 
First Wald & Arthur played their <u>POWER</u> version with <br>
partial information while I watched. Then Claude & Bob <br>
played while I watched part of it. For rules see large <br>
card file. <br>
 
Claude and Helen played several games of <u>L.O.A.</u> <br>
 
[ARROW FROM ABOVE] Played <u>F.O.A.</u> with Wald. Arthur watched. They liked it. <br>
 
Played Bob's <u>GAME IDEA</u> (See 2/5) and also "Board Game" Folder. <br>
Bob, Helen, Claude, & I played. Bob didn't care for it but <br>
it has possibilities.
