big thumbs up on gameplay and concept as for graphics - "it's lovely" (that's what I say to my daughter when she shows me her scribbles)

i don't need comments on graphics. those will be at a later stage. i want to iron out the gameplay and then i'll do the graphics.

so gameplay feedback please. everybody says great idea or good gameplay but i feel somehow the gameplay is still problematic and needs balancing.

let me explain how it goes so far.

each player starts with a home (like A4). this home will give him 1k$ each month from daddy. the rest is up to him. each player will start in a separate district (marked by a different colour) in each district there's a subway station and 2 shops. getting the whole district means you get the block fidelity bonus of +2k$ per turn. on the map there are 20 shops (actually there are 22 i'll remove 2) and those 20 shops will be split into 4 different types. getting all 5 shops of the same type means you get the monopole bonus of +2k$
there are also 2 areas that don't belong to any district. each area is attackable only by subway and holds 2 shops. those shops will be the missing ones to get the monopole.

right near the manor there's an arsonist/extortionist/thug operation. holding that will allow you to bombard any shop on the map but each turn you'll lose 10k$ as bribe (it means that terit has a -10 decay).

the mall and the manor are your objective. hold them for 1 turn and you become CC City Mogul.

anything is up for discussion. please comment what you don't like (except graphics)

from my experiences with age of realms i must say i am very adverse to having subways within 1 conquer (one territory in between) away from houses and shops

I like the idea, but this Large map may actually benefit from being not quite so huge...perhaps a little less height.

i like open maps with lots of movement options and no australia type continents.

it's 800*800. it's within the guidelines and it has 90 terits

but the graphics aren't yet up for discussion since heavy gameplay modifications may influence the layout.

You may wish to insert the neutrals to get some better gameplay feedback

i planned inserting neutrals when terits are in final place but since nobody is complaining about how i put them i guess they're ok. i'll put neutrals tomorrow because right now i'm busy playing some flash games :lol:
