Nicely Crafted Entertainment plans to launch a Time of Defiance Skirmish Server on Friday that will give players of this online strategy space game faster and more focused gameplay sessions. Skirmish games will be shorter than the regular vanilla flavor of ToD, taking only about two weeks to complete (versus 21 to 28 days on the other servers). Details on the new Skirmish Mode (available only to paying customers) can be found here: http://www.nicelycrafted.com/todc/
