I am a big fan of Philip Sabin's book. Do you have any plans to build more of the games from the book?
No plans at present. I would have to get agreement from Dr. Sabin. He did help with playtesting Hell's Gate - we played each other by screen sharing over Zoom which worked quite well.
Ah! That is a pretty good way to handle a two player game.
