2026 Proposed Amendment #2 Risk to General

[lionheartrjc]

If such a great commander is death, how can he pick his successor ?

Well, I suppose if it was Alexander, a 2 carder would equate to all the other generals fighting amongst themselves.

It is odd that if you kill a T general in a single blow (or an L in two blows), his successor is competent, but if he dies of accumulated wounds, his successor is mediocre.

A fair comment.  The whole wounding a general and reducing the number of cards is a bit artificial. If a wound wasn't serious enough to take a general out of the action then it probably wouldn't reduce the control of the army (which again is probably far greater than in our games than it was in history).  The stun affect is probably more realistic, a temporary panic when it is uncertain if a leader has been killed or not.
