if you can only protect your island

i have been noticing that creating an island and trafficing all yer pill there and holding off he world- even for big teams- seems to be all the further the strat. has gone in open games.

what up with that?

if all you can conqure is a little island......have you won the game?
if your team is large enough (and often it is) try something new..

occupy all the spawn spots....that surely isn't any more boring than back mining an island.
