It was simple and elegant, just really slick.  My one issue was kind of that once a castle is built, it seemed really hard to take it back... seemed like the map got static pretty quick with emplaced strong positions.

But whats a bit frustrating is when all cells are taken by someone its pretty over. And with (bad) look you can get initial positions that puts one of the players in an advantage.\r<br\/>I dont see how you can improve other than decreasing the defense of fortitudes. Or what would be much more fun: Three parties and a little bit increased grid resolution to make room for the third party. Would love to play that in an additional game mode!\r<br\/>Great Game!"},{"author_name":"BloodJohn","author_uid":"26449","time":"Feb 1, 2015 @ 1:33pm","epoch":1422797280,"text":"Awesome game!
