Good Morning Woodboro (V7.X) -- Home for the Holidays

[carlpgoodrich]

Sorry for being a Noob to the Foundry process, but why is this map not in Beta yet? As in why can't I play games yet on it? Is it just waiting for Lack to upload the files or something?

[natty dread]

yes

[army of nobunaga]

nice friggin map dimwit..

im pretty excited, i discovered two maps today in beta that will be staples of mine.



very very very very nice map... like 1000 thumbs up.


plays like a champ

[army of nobunaga]

lol, to be honest... I dreaded this one... but its damn near genius.

I didnt think a low army fed system like this would work on suck an open map. Happy to say i was wrong.

[Evil DIMwit]

No way, really? Boy, is that a relief.

[DubWarrior]

Congrats with the Beta! This one looks really really nice.

[thenobodies80]

Congrats! I wish you the same success you have had with your other map.

[Riazor]

Slaydio antenna army number is not centered... just thought i'd mention that here's hoping for a fun game on this map!

[Master Fenrir]

Forgive me if this was already brought up, but Ott is a neutral 2 while McKay is a neutral 1. Is this intentional, or a mistake? Shouldn't the fanatics hold the same value?

[Evil DIMwit]

No, it's intentional. McKay is lower because there's less going on in its section of town, so I made it easier to access.

[natty dread]

Hm, I like the map, but only getting 1 troop in the beginning makes it a bit tedious and dependant on dice. I'd prefer if you would change the territory bonus to 2 troops.

[Halmir]

Hi there's a bug I've noticed?

Carlin can attack Ott despite Klein being in the way.

(Sorry if this has been reported already, I wasn't about to read 18 pages to check:) )

[Evil DIMwit]

That's not a bug. Carlin is a pirate so it can assault fanatics directly.

Oh, the large version. Okay, I see it now. Hope this fixes it:

Really enjoying the games i've played so far, although I have been getting my ass kicked... then again thats just business as usual for me

[Evil DIMwit]

Upon playing a couple of games, this makes sense to me. Anyone else care to opine?

[TheForgivenOne]

Totally agree. If you have horrible dice at the start, you are in essence screwed

[natty dread]

If you're feeling bold you could even up it to 3. Although it might be best to go a step at a time...

[Evil DIMwit]

I think 3 puts us in danger of first-round eliminations, so hopefully this step will be enough.

Sorry if I didn't see this in the earlier discussion, but why can't the antennas attack ALL the houses, similar to the yard in Super Max? Ditto with the sponsors. Seems like with radio competition as the fundamental premise, then geography/proximity should be largely irrelevant to the gameplay, except for a bum-rush of the stations or pirate stations to seize the antennas.

Well, because then the gameplay would be ridiculous.
If you must, think of it as station popularity spreading by word of mouth from neighbor to neighbor. The fanatics are always scanning the airwaves, so stations have to boost power to the antenna temporarily to get noticed by them.

Waiting over - the adjustment has gone live!

[MarshalNey]

I like the minimum bonus increase, even though it's only been two turns I think it's definitely an improvement.

[Evil DIMwit]

Stations lightened at the request of a Gray player:
