Probably the best and most well-thought-out post on the entire thread.

So what *is* the purpose of the "war island"?

Should it really be nothing but a mindless grind, recruit, move to  
the front, fight, go back and refit, rinse and repeat?

Should it be mostly like the other islands, but with diplomacy (and  
other non-war options) disabled and enforcedly discouraged?

Should the balance be tweaked to make it likely to end faster? Slower?

I'm interested in seeing Tom's take on all of these, and more...
