We use a similar rule at our table. We play whenever there is no more than one player missing.

The metaphor I use to describe it is like from a TV show: sometimes, a character is inexplicably absent from an episode and it’s often because the actor has other obligations.

So the character is simply not on-screen. It is not talked about, no reason is brought up and the character isn’t being played by anyone.

It’s the open source reimplementation of HoMM2. It’s fully playable, although the reimplemented AI plays much, much smarter than the original, which can be an upside or a downside for you.

There is also an android version, it works great on a tablet!

You’re also missing French resistance Janeway from VOY: Killing Game and Borg Janeway from VOY: Unimatrix Zero Part 2

Also, obviously Living Witness mustache-twirlingly evil Janeway is the best.
