I know I already posted about this some time ago,but can Shadow Island
games PLEEEEEASE make an open-ended module for Odyssey,possibly with a
HUGE landmass so we can have TONS of players at a cheaper price
(well,maybe I'm asking too much with the price ;) ,but if you get more
players,maybe you could lower a bit the turn cost)

When you do it,Odyssey will rock big time,until then close endness is
a major setback,methinks...
