Conquer Club

Annapolis as a starting point happened in our game as well

hey, does the bonus for Kentucky state work? Cuz I'm playing a game where I'm holding all 4 pieces of it and it doesn't give bonus

Like I said

Yes I am, considering this is the USA Map Pack in one map plus Hawaii and Alaska, I tried to keep everything the same as much as possible with a few exceptions for clarity and for the interstate junctions.

Ah, that makes sense. Bummer though.

Game 12651458

Check the Game Log for this one.

2013-04-18 23:16:55 - Incrementing game to round 6
2013-04-18 23:17:28 - Jdsizzleslice received 6 troops for holding Washington

2013-04-18 23:20:26 - Jdsizzleslice received 6 troops for holding Washington

Now, If I look correctly on the map, I see that Washington is only supposed to receive 3 troops, not 6. I assume this is a bug, or a XML error.

Washington is listed twice in the XML (as a bonus), so it's awarding double the bonus (instead of awarding the bonus twice). Merged in with the map thread for fixing.

If all's well, blake sent me the corrected XML and it's been uploaded! Be sure shoot a PM to me if any more mishaps happen!

Was this the one sent, because so far every issue was already fixed in that update

Currently playing in game 12646503 (sunny).

I hold all four maryland cities but am not getting a bonus there.

You don't have to hold DC to get a the MD bonus do you? Or am I missing something else?

Great map though! Thanks a bunch!

I think I let the American in me get away with putting DC in the Maryland bonus since that's where it is, but I think I remember isaiah saying it's supposed to be neither Maryland nor Virginia. I'll let him reply just in case.

Apparently Gilligan isn't so American. D.C. is not in Maryland as it is the District of Columbia, a separate area from Virginia and Maryland! So in short DC should not be part of the Maryland bonus!

Yup, those DCers won't be too happy if you lump em in with Virginia or Maryland...they definitely aren't in either. If many of them had their own way, they would be state #51!

Again, great map...thanks a bunch!

Erik

Hi. I don't know if it's too late to do graphical changes, but I wanted to point out that the bonus minimap at the top shows Indiana touching Missouri, when it doesn't in the main map (and indeed doesn't in real life either).

Other than that it looks good, from a graphical perspective. Some of the states are a little oddly shaped, but I understand there has to be a balance between readability and fidelity.

I find the Hawaii bonus on the minimap, in regards to how much the bonus gives, hard to read

Here are some troop counts I've observed that don't seem to align up with the circles/positioning of troop counts in other areas..... I circled the 4 I see in red.

show: troop counts

Yes, and Boston!

Not sure how that happened, they were fine on the test site. I'll go through them, but it'll have to wait. Finals week here and it's crazy.

Just played my first few rounds on this map.

Route 66 on crack. Really liking it, 6 rounds in. Like learning my geography this way. Thanks to the makers.

One thing I noticed, though its very minor and I doubt few people will notice, but Waterville is south of Bangor, so switching the two territs would be slightly more accurate; but Im not sure how difficult that would be graphic-wise to implement.

Only 22 starting terts in 1v1?!

And DC is definitely not in any state. It's all on it's own. Maryland and Virginia both donated land for the city.

Congrats on what is one of the best maps on cc imo!! Love it & seems really popular already. One question, there is no bonus attached to the different coloured highways/roadways (im aussie not sure the correct term used in the states lol), in the smaller maps holding one particular road line generates a bonus, it'd be cool to have them also on this one (anyone who ever held one would well have earned it ). Best thing about this map, is that it's huge but so straightforward & cohesive - well done to all involved!

Thank you! I'm glad you are enjoying this map!

Yes I think this will be more popular than my fractured mini-series. At first I did have the interstates having bonuses but it was brought up that no one would hold an entire interstate due to how hard it would be. As a matter of fact, the bonuses went through a change after the game-play stamp was issued, so what you see is the culmination of it.

Think I found a quirk in the XML connections. Albert Lea (MN) is connected to Sioux City (IA) instead of Des Moines (IA) should be the other way around.

Gilligan is right to a degree, and so it chap. DC had land donated by both Maryland and Virginia, however, Virginia took its chunk of DC back during the Civil War, and it remained that way after the war ended. DC resides within Maryland on 3 sides, as Gilly's map clearly shows, however, DC stands for District of Columbia, its not a part of Maryland, or any other state for that matter...

It's up to the isaiah exactly how the bonuses are distributed. You do get an autodeploy for DC and if you need to hold it to hold Maryland, so be it.
