As part of a family of board gaming nuts (and founder or participant in several startups), I think its a fantastic opportunity to educate others about the dynamics of the startup world. Regarding the "illusion of control", I wonder if introducing "influence" multiplier cards that could modify the resulting exit might be a way to introduce control, while still maintaining randomness, perhaps? Looking forward to learning more!
...also, just thinking out loud, I would totally love to help you put Swagger.vc on Kickstarter - we have purchased several boardgames there e.g. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cmon/marvel-united - I think it sounds like an awesome game concept and anything I could do to help bring it to life would be cool.
The game seems so fun. I bet you tons of people would want to play this / buy it during Startupfest. I'd love to try it!
