I've decided to start working on programming an old favorite of mine. I've never done a game before and also never done a large project in Python.

The game is the old Avalon Hill game Russian Campaign

I've been playing with PyGame a little bit and was wondering if there were reasons not to try to do this with PyGame and go after some other engine/language.

What would be the disadvantages of using Pygame to build this?

I'm not worried about AI, primarily I'd just love to get a minimal two player version of the game up and running. Bonuses would be the ability to save the state of the game and also to play over a network.

Do's and Dont's for starting this project would be greatly appreciated.
