38-Down is isolated. Hitting 36-Across is considered an illegal attack move and 41-Across doesn't appear in the dropdown menu.

Thanks. Another update has been sent to lackattack.

great idea, not sure it would be so very playable, but great idea indeed.

Hey Twill, let's play a game on this one and find out how playable it really is!

by **zip_disk** on Mon Apr 03, 2006 11:38 pm

Ahh, lack updated. It really hurt to have a 7 army that was trapped in a no card game.

Just for the heck of it I made a really ugly version of the map that was a little clearer on showing country borders. The bottom continent colors look too light though.

Maybe the squares with numbers ("names") should have little arrows pointing to the right direction of that country, as in direct crosswords. It will help, I believe. The map would be more readable...

I've never seen a crossword puzzle that had arrows...

Neither have I.... I like the way it looks now, the direction of the number should be fairly obvious if you are paying attention.

Jota..I wanted to say that I LOVE this map ... thank you for your hard work-

Thanks!

The bonuses on this map are inconsistent. I believe that the bonuses should be ammended:

Red and Green Regions have the same number of territories, the same number of borders and for all practical purposes, are exactly the same, yet they have different bonuses +3 and +2 respectively. Why is this? This should be fixed.

Meanwhile Silver has the same number of territories and borders as pink and is given a +6 to pink's +4

furthermore, green has 4 borders and is only a +3

Bump. This needs change. See above post.

Cheers for this Wolffy...
I'm not sure why the bonuses are the way they are - it's possible that there are some answers earlier in the thread, although the Foundry was in its infancy when Jota made this, and less rigour was applied to development.

As some point in the future it is possible that this map will be revamped - I expect that any significant and unjustified imbalances (similar to your example) could be addressed at this time.

Cheers,

I'd just like to bump this and reexamine the inconsistencies of the bonuses in this map. I'm sure that it requires a lot of time and energy to update a map. I wouldn't know a thing about coding. But just to make those aware...BUMP
