World Cities: Sully's Moscow

Post by Victor Sullivan »

The graphics are an eyesore, but I hope you like the crisp, simple, yet new-ish gameplay:

Neutrals: 4 on each minor and major "building". All intersections are drops.
So, 33 droppable, 14 neutral, 47 total.

I like the objective points a lot!

Didn't think it was possible though. Thought it would require to group together each and every permutation in the XML, that would yield 8 points. But I guess not?

It does require that, but the amount of ways you can combine 1:s and 2:s to get to 8 isn't all that onerous:

0*1 + 4*2
2*1 + 3*2
4*1 + 2*2
6*1 + 1*2
8*1 + 0*2

5 objectives in total, with 8 continents (the 0:s can be ignored).

huh? One of us is misunderstanding either the math or the objective points.
Counting only the terts giving +1, there's 10. Having any eight of those are far more than 5 permutations.

The first objective contains a continent that contains all the territories that give 2 objective points with a "required: 4" tag. (4*2)

The 2nd objective contains:
- a continent that contains all the territories that give 1 objective point, with a "required: 2" tag. (2*1)
- a continent that contains all the territories that give 2 objective points, with a "required: 3" tag. (3*2)

The 3rd objective contains:
- a continent that contains all the territories that give 1 objective point, with a "required: 4" tag. (4*1)
- a continent that contains all the territories that give 2 objective points, with a "required: 2" tag. (2*2)

Etc and so on.

Ah! I see! Guess I didn't get the finer points of the required tag. Thanks for explaining! :-)

Forgot to mention the neutrals: 4 on each minor and major "building". I'll update my first post.

ok, I need for you to put the neutrals on the map and explain what the 'bases' are. Are they starting points? If so, can you put colored numbers on the bases to indicate this.

Bases...? *checks the legend* Oh, haha, I meant that each player gets a +3 no matter what. I meant "base", like in the "starting foundation" sense, not the "headquarters" sense of the word. I guess I should make that more clear :?

I can put the neutrals on the objective territories, no problem.
