A New History of Midgard?

[Davin]

Just forget the past games play and start over as stated above. Simply have as you starting factions the (7) of: Imperial, Boda, Getham, Roder, Banner, Gift, and Ring.  Now you could then do the redesign of all of them to make them refreshed and fun to play, then after they are all fully in play, then consider adding other factions again.

That's certainly a reasonable approach.  Let's see if we can come up with some additional (agreeing or disagreeing) opinions.
