Ill PM you myself once there done

Hmmm - I wrote most of the code for this at 3AM - a while back... perhaps not the best idea!!

yeti did it right, he did it for the large map...



See, they (1 & 5) don't touch in the large map, in the small map they do. This is an image error us coders can't do anything about.

OK, I checked it with the small map (which I always play on). So, that's 2 maps in which the small and large were uploaded with different borders (also Iberia).

It's all fixed, waiting for lack. Don't know about Iberia though.

What happens in a 7 or 8 player game; there are only 6 castles?

It won't let you create a game. Same with Age of Realms.

It'll be fixed Tuesday evening, when I get home from my vacation.

thanks for helping out coleman

Description: Unsuccessful attack BUG in Feudal War

Detailed description: attacking from Great Kingdom Castle to Great Kingdom 6: if successful with dice - absolutely nothing happens. If unsuccessful, armies get taken away from Great Kingdom Castle as it should be. Attacks onto Great Kingdom 5 and 7 worked as it should.

Found where: Feudal War map, game 1497635

Possible idea: Great Kingdom 6 shows being occupied by 1 army neutral player. If there were 10 or so armies on it, it would make sense, but it really only showed 1 army at the start of my bombardment, and it still shows 1 army now

bombardment means that you kill off everything and leave one neutral.

Thanks for explaining that - now it makes sense.

Could there not be a legend on the map explaining what "bombardment" means? It cost me a lot of armies to find out. In "Instructions" - "Game Play Notes" bombardment is explained differently and only pertaining to two other maps, not Feudal War

Another question: to win, does one need to hold all castles as written on the top, or can one also eliminate all opponents, but have one castle still occupied by neutral player?

they can eliminate all opponents, or in assassin, eliminate their target, or just eliminate anybody for terminator

You can win by either elimenating all opponenets, elimenation your target in assassin or win by starting your turn holding all 6 castles.

im 100% on this map cause i won my 4 person game!

THX FOR THE HELP WITH MY 80 POINTS GIMIL!!!

I've been informed this map is unbalanced...

I suspect they're right - if you start in the middle of the map - you're fucked!!

in a lot of ways this makes sense as the terrs on the edge can only be attacked from 1 side - whereas in the middle you have to protect multiple flanks.

So how do we rebalance it...

Also - if in a game of doubles - one team starts in the top - they have 1 border each - and can run amok in the Northern Plains getting lots of territory bonus.

This is a great and well thought out map.
Kudos to whomever came up with it.

I also think the wording needs to be changed.

Currently reads: "Victory is gained by conquering all castles" Should read "Victory is gained by holding all castles at the start of a turn"

dude, your just supposed to know that

Even if bryguy meant that sarcastically I agree. All the effects of every territory or collection of territories ever only applies it's effect at the start of your turn. This is painfully obvious through play. Why would the victory condition be different?

It's be like making a legend with continent bonus values and being forced to put "received at start of turn".

*gasp* We need to hurry and touch up all the released maps so they say that. How else would you know!? Oh my god, how could we have missed it!?

What other map has a capture this and win feature to it? The only two I know of are Feudal and the new Magic one.
