Good news ! Please keep at this; I'm pretty sure that running tests, reviewing results, and 'adjusting', and re-running tests,,, is not a lot of fun but all that hard work is appreciated.
And I'm happy we didn't scare you off with all the 'ooh, 1 week turns, I dunno 'bout that' talk. (Even tho I agree with the concerns.) Your plan of releasing two variants is a great way to let players decide -- thanks for working up a half-week variant.
As for scope/duration -- 78 turns is not that long. And I'm a fan of shorter scenarios. Besides the 'small' side has 'only' 600 units -- so you cannot worry too much about overwhelming people; you are already whelming them with number of units. My guess is that as many games are abandonned at turn 8 out of 24 as are abandonned at turn 10 out of 150 -- if someone is going to give up, it will be early. Anyway, glad to hear you're still working on this one.
