Why are the three shields right next to the inset? 2 of them border each other, then the third is a territory away... shouldn't they be a little farther apart at least?

Can you give me some sugestion.
I realy try to find some other importan Cities,but in these war-Boeotians(thebes)Athenians(athens)Corintians(Corinth)Lacedaemonians(SPartan),are major powers,and without these,will not be War.
Any way,you dont get bonuses for Shields,you need to hold all 8 shields to win a War(game).

looking good qwert
two small suggestions;

* change the wording from "win a war" to "win the war" ... the first sounds in english like each of the shields will give you something ... the second is more total.

* make the two "blobs" for the "map inset" and "objectives etc." touch eacother ... i.e. make them one bigger blob and push them a tiny bit more into the corner to seperate them better from the rest of the land mass.

I get these sugestion from Mrbeen,but i forget on that,i hope that im not forget when im next time update.

Blobs? What these mean? Can you show me visual,no need to be artisitic,just create something to understand .

[asl80]

* actually, it would have to say "Capture all the shields to win the war"

* well here goes with the blobs ... hehe ...

Once you take out all the territories a player has, you are yourself not doing so well.

A person has a minimum of 3 deploy, so to keep them inside that one last territory, you would need 4 men (because of dice, attacker's advantage). 4 men out of your army will only leave you with 1 or 2 left for other parts of the game.

I suggest adding some bonuses, and/or making the territory right in front of the starting positions have an autodeploy. Either way will make taking over the next region give you more troops than you need to hold it, thus giving you a profit.

if you notice,that distace bettwen starting position is min 5 territory. I ony can give max 2 autodeploy to starting position,because i realy dont like maps who give to much bonuses.
Now its quit hard for anybody to have any big advantage over other players,but if some player alove to other player expeel hem from all map,then these will be fault from these player not fault from map,because now map not give anybody any advantage.
If you have min 5 neutral territory,these give you +15 neutrals, wery hard to eliminate in short range.

[The Neon Peon]

Wait, I thought you can't eliminate players?

You can not eliminate players from map,that why i dont understand why you need to big bonuses.
First of all everybody is in long distance to each other,and objectives is in middle of map,
If you play with 5-6-7-8 players,everybody begun with equal advantage,no need for any new bonuses,expecialy for some bonuses who will give advantage to player who starting first.
Ofcourse some autodeply in starting territory is OK,but not to much biger.

If starting positions can't be attacked, won't this map have the same problem Das Schloß does?

[qwert]

I dont think so, because you dont get big bonuses,like you get in dass scloss.
But we can not know before first game on map,right. We can not know precisely how will these work,because we dont have testing area for that.
