I have been playing more 1v1 games lately and have found the start is huge. Many boards if you get the start, you can pretty much put a stranglehold on your opponent. So I was wondering if it would be possible to have everyone in the first round get their deploy they drop at the start. This way you can't knock your opponent down by a few troops and pretty much take them out of the game.
I think this would even out the start a bit, I know some times someone drops a bonus and it is nice to bust it before their turn, but the start is enough of an advantage. Some boards like Pearl harbour one guy drops 15 troops and the next guy only gets 6 after the first players turn. Game over already, but if the opponent also got their original drop of 14 they have a better shot at coming back.
I don't know if it is possible, but think this would also help in team games especially dubs where the second team can also be behind after the first strike. Or even games with 12 regions, the first team can knock the next team down to only 3 deploy, this wouldn't be the case with a fair start.
If this has been suggested before sorry about that, didn't see anything in my quick search.
