ruzenqures: I thought that would be the case but VP victory seems very very hard well maybe for 3 quest wictory. 5 quest adventure could be more stable for VP victory. But I cant rely long games because of disconnections:(
The point is that if a player rushes his/her quest to finish the game and win, and doesn´t do the side quests for that... the other players may still have a chance if they manage to do the side quests, killing monsters etc.
It balances the game enough in order to everybody getting a chance of winning.
Example:
8vp quest no side quest = 8vp
8vp quest (not completed) all side quests completed (3vp+3vp)= 6vp (8 if you are lucky and deal with some foes).
Obviously all this is easier in the 3 quests mode, but also apply in the 1quest mode
