Agreed. It's true that there's quite a degree of variety; Italian seems to have 120 tiles, even though they're distributed over only 21 letters. But Klingon's rigid word structure can sometimes lead to a particular type of congestion on the board, and I think that'd only be exacerbated by adding many more tiles.

would like to see a copy of that--I'm going to send one to qurgh.
HIngeH - I'd be keen.
