Just trading and hunting without minefields would probably be great for some people, but a lot of the really dedicated teamplayers who want lots of teamwork would probably get bored. I know I can't handle just to trade and hunt even for 1 game before I start missing the other stuff. Me neither. In ...

Having 30 sitters on a planet was never intended to be a magic bullet as far as I know. Keeping the fights at 10 vs 10 levels the playing field a bit.
