Wouldn't it be slower? More provinces = more moves, plus harder to backstab and so slower to wipe people out. Or perhaps making backstabs harder means that the balance of power doesn't shift as quickly, since there is more reason to maintain alliances and this in turn allows one player to gain more power to the point of unstoppability (esp without stalemate lines).

Have you ever tried it?
no. I'd like to. do you think it would work well with fewer than 7 players? can't see it being any faster
