I know what you are saying.

Though from my perspective, throughout the 90s, I played all the Skirmish, and Coram big games. They were AWESOME... except.... 90% of the day was spent LOOKING for action. The fields were massive, and the other team could literally be anywhere, since you never knew who controlled any given base, at any given time.

It made for lots and lots of walking, waiting, looking. I loved that aspect, but as I get older, and very lazy, sometimes I want to know EXACTLY where the other team is. Thats Castle Conquest. I KNOW exactly where you will be on Saturday, and its about a 4 minute walk from my car.

That means I'm shooting a constant amount of paint almost the entire game. I'm not sure a longer game would be a better game in that situation. You might have problems with players burning out after so much constant playing.

On a lighter side-
I just checked my homebrew, and its pretty friggen good. So when the defenders loose, you have something to look forward to.
