I think that (most) cards should cost resources to use. These would include actual resources (metal, wood, oil), but there would be artifiacial ones as well (espionage, karma). I didn't quite understand how the first arms race's resources worked, and whether tehy'll be the same as here, but if what I'm suggesting sounds confusing, its probably because I misunderstand something.
The first game is incredibly simple. Each side have 1 espionage action to use. Which can be anything from stealing designs to industrial sabotage. Results determined by a D6 against a difficulty (assigned by GM). If you fail too badly you cannot perform the espionage next turn (to simulate the cooling off/retraining needed)

War must be, while we defend our lives against a destroyer who would devour all; but I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend.

Front loaded complexity. As far as I found, it works better if you sneak it in after.

Try not to have front loaded complexity it makes fudgeing things later much harder as you need to find loop holes and close them behind you.

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.

There is no front loaded complexity. All I want are names because I don't want to be stuck with the Island of Forenia.

Which terrain types will we be able to select?
the complete list of the 16 terrain tiles are as follows:

- Plains/Savanna, Oil
- Plains/Savanna
- Plains/Savanna
- Mountains, Ore
- Mountains, Ore
- Mountains
- Mountains
- Forests, Oil
- Forests, Ore
- Forests
- Swamp/Jungle, Ore
- Swamp/Jungle, Oil
- Swamp/Jungle
- Wasteland/Desert/Tundra, Oil
- Wasteland/Desert/Tundra
- Wasteland/Desert/Tundra

I know there are more "hard" terrains than "easy" terrains but then, but.
In any case I want to give you a chance in customization.
