Actually I just chose a hexagram because it looks cooler. More symmetric.

So, anyone have any pre-draft stamp input? Anything about the graphics or gameplay? I'm open to suggestions here.

I still think that the text color on Heim tower should be be changed it is very similar with the background

I'll adjust that in the next update.

How about the distance from each Tower to the nearest Port, it varies from 7 territories to 3.
Would it be much of an advantage starting closer to a Port ?

Well, there are so many other factors in play here, it's hard to tell... but I don't really see how it would be that significant. Sure, the ports grant you some extra mobility, but there are other means to move around on the map.

Anyway, if it becomes an issue, the placement for the ports is by no means set in stone...

The map itself looks very similar to the AOR maps... any particular reason?

You could say apples look similar to bananas because they're both fruit...

not really...

I"m just wondering. And I know the GP is completely different, I was just curious as to why you made the basic outline with the island in the middle so similar to that of the AOR maps.

The island is relevant for the gameplay, so it's there. I wanted to basically divide the land mass in 2 parts, with an extra island in the middle that both sides can access, so a river/sea/bay/random body of water going through the middle of the map seemed like the most obvious solution.

Stamped and moved

Thanks!

Changed Heim colour to a bit darker, changed the Gnolls icon in the legend to match the one on the map.

Anyone have any gameplay input?

Should the port/ferry locations be reconsidered?

by **AndyDufresne** on Mon Nov 28, 2011 11:06 am

In regards to Ferries and Ports, for example, does TA4 connect to N5 or just N9?

The first post mentions 40 spell territories, is the break down divided evenly or not? A breakdown posted might help for some game play analysis.
