only have to write 2 AIs vs 4 AIs


That said, the bot cards already exist, so scripting the AI shouldn't be that hard for those games.

Exactly!

Though I didn't realize Lab only had two players... oh, wait, I'm thinking of A Distant Plain, that's the COIN version. Lab is based on the TwiStrug engine, so it makes perfect sense that they'd adapt that first. Or next, rather.  :bigthumb:
