Report history
- Conventionnal Leftism duplique le Standard;
- Finesse duplique le Standard;
Je sais que Standard peut être cool pour les nouveaux joueurs, mais la finesse arrive très vite, genre après 5 ou 10 parties au max. Très peu de personnes que je connais joue sans.
J'enlèverais 'Conventionnal Leftism' et 'Standard' pour ne laisser que 'Finesse'. Potentiellement, on pourrait laisser que 'Standard' et enlever 'Finesse' si c'est problématique.
- 'Secret convention' n'est pas une convention, soit il faut l'enlever (et j'aimerais rajouter un 'Others' ), soit mettre 'Secret variant' imo ;
Je mettrais un 'others' perso.
- Rajouter 'Hyphen-ated' je suppose
Maybe put these informations close to the rules. Really helpful !!! Please take care of these suggestions :-)
Thanks a lot
Though there are many forums and links that try to explain tricks and mechanicals, I cannot find on BGA or web any complete explanation of the meaning of this setting list. Even on the BGA wiki, it is not describe.
Thanks
Also, I agree with Romain. The conventions listed in the option page seem a bit random.
Keep it short and simple, or add some extra information on the option page directly.
