Thanks a lot for your quick response !I don't really see how this speeds up the game if everything keeps playing sequentially.
You are right insofar as it does NOT speed up the actual game flow and does not result in quicker movement or faster MP acquirement.
It rather eliminates downtime, as it allows all players to get involved in every phase instead of waiting for their own turn.
The simultaneous turns in ARDA allows more people to get involved at the same time, but the remaining players can still roll their eyes and go for a smoke until their turn actually kicks in. In GoT, the turns also take quite a while, but since the phases allow for quick rotation around the table, the downtime is acceptable.
Do you see any problem with my mechnic, i.e., does contradict any existing rules ? I would like to try it out in one of my next games.
Thanks again for responding!
