aaah, I see.. The main problem is that you don't start with runes any more. This does extend game length of course...Please tell us the results of your 5 rune game! I can't see why this could be a problem. The overall runecount stays almost the same.
What's now with your home realm? When there are no more rune tokens, they lose significance. Can't you just put fake runes in your home realm, which allows you to exchange them with your strategy cards? Therefore, runes can be protected better and the victory can be announced earlier.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
