A bid system would be cool - That is bid how many points you are willing to "give" your opponent so you can start with white.
Or make it standard - that is black automaticly gets X amount of points handicap to start.
Of course I have not played enough to know how much of an advantage it is.
But very cool game Fencer. Once game which I would not be afraid to say a "bigger board" version would be good. (10x10 maybe) - but we can wait awhile for that.
(or if you want to get real creative - a 3 player version with 3 colors of stones.)
