Sorry I've not given this any attention for the past two weeks, but I promise to get back to it. These are the changes I'd made before I went on vacation two weeks ago... each Great City has its own unique pyramid (based on the actual existing structures) which will also house the army counts. The other terits will haveno army circles, though tribute cities will have the little guys carrying packs - from the Mayan calendar used in the title.

Still somuch to do - this is still early stages!

it looks great already

only the border look kinda weird in relation with the mountains and the pyramids

id agree with prophet... the mountains really stick out compared to the whole thing, maybe dim them a little. otherwise it looks good.

also, i dont understand what you mean by saying the other territs wont have army circles... care to explain?

^^ there are no circle to place the army numbers in so they are just in the open

I'm looking forward to the rest of the tributary cities getting filled in.

it looks kind of... bland. other than that, it's great

The thing that bugs me is that the entire left side can be held by two countries.

It's more dramatic if you say the whole right side can be held by two, as the right side is much bigger. :wink:

I'm sure we could add a route or something to combat this?

It's all up for discussion at this point, since the locations of the borders are arbitrary... I could easily drop the unpassable between Comalcaclo and Remojadas, which would eliminate the bottleneck.

edit: on second thought, dropping that river won't change the bottleneck. Working on it.

no more 2-territory choke-point on this one.

uhh, about the mountains they have a certain perspective which gives a weird overall feeling about the rest which doesnt have this perspective

yeah, nothing is set in stone yet... they're also much heavier than everything else. work in progress. :wink:
