Hi,
The same problem exists with many games including Halma and Chinese Checkers.
I assume that there is some etiquette that players will move their pieces out of their home area to avoid this problem, but you're right a smart player would just leave a piece in their home to spoil them game.
We will investigate further and see if there is any evidence of additional rules to stop this behaviour, e.g. piece can only move towards enemy home, player must vacate their home area in first three turns, etc.
Regards,
Cameron
