So I picked up planetary empires and was wanting to change up warhammer a little bit. And thought of randomizing the bunch into a big board then having each of us (3 players) pick out even tiles. Then playing many games as like risk moving armies into areas adjacent and invading. Having set some 50,000 point army cap( now we don't have that much I think the person with the least has about 3000) then setting an army amount into each hex trying to defend or what not. So when one hex has 2000 points of guys and the other has 1500. Yeah might be unfair but you might get lucky and take out a bunch of his before he takes the hex and what not. Haven't thought thru much of the details. But my two questions are

1. Does this idea sound decent? Or just dumb?

2. And last with planetary empires there are structures that are used. If we do a game with the piece should it take up the whole board? Or just a terrain piece?
