Been tried. Didn't work. WarpWar existed in toto on the net for some time
and
I don't think it ever got a rise from HT, and then there's Mega Duel
(Crunchy
Frog, IIRC), which is a fair chunk of TFT with the serial numbers filed
off.

I agree. It's pretty easy to say but VERY tough to do. I can give you a
list of games that were very close, but failed in some small but crucial
points. BESM is the only one that has come close so far.
The devil is in the details and too many writers have been tempted to do
TFT "only better" and screwed it up by changing one slight detail which
wasn't quite the flavor of play that TFT was.
History shows that if you want to catch Lightning in a Bottle the second
time - buy the origonal Lightning.
