[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 5505078, member: 19675"] I think he base level assumption of the game is going to be that the band has already been signed, and they're just trying to "make it big." Perhaps instead of a hard and fast "first to 10M fans" victory condition- which could take a long time- the game should end after 4-5 trips around the board. The "Start" square would be "Record Released!", and you'd release a new album every time you land on or pass that square. After one band has had 5 record releases, you total up your number of fans to determine the winner. That might keep the game's pace up and the duration of a typical game under 90 minutes. There might also be cards that make "record releases" not count towards ending the game- "Best of...", "Bootleg!" "Masters Destroyed!", "Shelved" and other cards might nullify a release, lengthening the game a bit... Meanwhile, "Double Album", "Charity Benefit EP" "Supergroup Side-Projects!" and others might INCREASE "releases" and speed the game up. :cool: On band members: one would be designated the "Founding Member", and would be immune or resistant to cards that would cause that member to be discarded (which, as mentioned before, would cause you to lose turns until he was replaced). There would also be a "Co-Founder" card that gives another bandmember that protection. [/QUOTE]
