Nice review. One thing I strongly disagree with is that replaying a month is identical. It's not. You will always have two more permanent upgrades AND two more Funded Events, both of which should have a noticable impact and make it easier to win the replay. Also, it's possible that you'll achieve certain Legacy deck effects in one game that dramatically alter the replay. There are numerous opportunities for that, from the very first game.
My group is in November and I think your first Con (no additional plays) is one that will soon bother me. Ending up with a uniquely playable game at campaign's end was a big draw for Risk Legacy, and I think could have been done for this game too. I wonder if it was in part a move to drive additional sales...
Finally, I playtested Seafall and think it'll be great. I really want to know how both it and PL will end :)
