It looks like an unbalanced nightmare

Someone should make a deliberately unbalanced variant, where one power starts off on the cusp of victory, forcing everyone else to cooperate to defeat it in such a way that it leaves *them* in a position to win. No "draw" option, but you can surrender anytime, and victory must be total (all supply centers).

Rinascimento does something similar to this. It's a 12-player variant on vdip where there are 2 or 3 big powers (papal states, naples, venice?) and like 9 other smaller powers. it also does this really interesting thing with its scoring system where credits are gained and lost based not on the number of SCs possessed, but by the percent gain. it's worth much more for pisa, with its 1 starting SC, or france/turkey, with 0 starting SCs, to solo than it is for the papal states to just hold rome all game.
