Vortex space

[hotmic1998]

so i had an idea of a vortex space where say there is two islands apart and if you captured a vortex space you could travel to the other island

they only open for capture when there are two players left

you could also not capture the 2 spaces around the vortex

The suggested idea sounds ok, but has it's drawbacks:
1. The initial game would be fun, but if one island has a quick dominator, and the other does not, it would be a definite win with boredom.
2. The hardcore mode would be pointless, since the vortex would be the only gap between them, ending in most scenarios in a draw.
3. The space around the vortex without capture, would not make too much sense either. There would just be an obstacle by the vortex.

Finally, as I recall,

<...> I don't plan to add extensive changes to the gameplay <...>
