<Subject>:
* Penalise player(s) for missing rounds.
<Body>:
* Suggestion Idea: Dice mechanics can be made to penalise players for missing rounds.
* Specifics:
For example, player returns to play after two missed rounds, and attacker rolls 6, 4 and 2 against defender rolls 5 and 1.
Results; first dice 6-2=4, second dice 4-2=2 and lastly, 2-2=1(smallest number) against 5 and 1.
Therefore, attacker loses 1 army and defender loses 1 army.
Note: If player returns to play after one missed round then substract 1 should suffice.
* Why it is needed: Not getting a card for missing a turn is not enough punishment especially for player(s) with continent bonus (ie. Oceania) who resort to its usage simply abuses the generosity of lackattack.
Refer to this game for an idea of what I'm trying to describe http://www.conquerclub.com/game.php?game=230440
* Priority** (1-5): 2
* I've read other threads such as this before but I've suggested a different solution altogether.

On the brighter side, at least this will bump the thread up, and it does seem like a good thread to bump.
