Question though. Do you have a wager the same amount for all 6 games or can each game be a different amount?

Good question, I tried to make this as clear as possible:knighthawk wrote:everyone is required before their first turn on each game to wager 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 on each game. You must wager each number once and only once for all games in your set of games
But I could see how it could be confusing. Let's say you have games on 6 different maps, Doodle, North America, Classic, Europe, Australia, and Asia. You don't like your drop much in Doodle so you'd wager your *ONLY* 1 on that. Let's say you're not very good at Europe in general so you decide to wager your *ONLY* 2 on that...and so on. You have 1 of each number to wager and you must wager one of each number. If it's still not clear let me know.
Another way of thinking about it:
You have a 1 chip, 2 chip, 3 chip, etc. and get to "place" each one on a map. You get that chip back if you win.

Oh i'm no longer confussed but I totally didn't get that lol. So I play six games and I basically have to rank them 1 to 6? As opposed to if I liked three games I could bet 5 on all of them. And then 4 on one other and then the other two could be all 1 chip? Because that would still add up to 21 but depending on the drop and what i think i'd win on adverage it might be a safer bet for me? Especially if I consider my 1v1 odds to be 50/50?
Just a comment/question:p
Caro

me and hath discussed this and although we agreed the map looked confusing at least to us, the number of territories which i believe i counted last night to be about 70 which although large compared to other maps we decided not large enough to disallow, the main concerns when deciding what maps to disallow where those in which 1. has been known to have games go for awhile; world 2.1, conquer man 2. had an absurb number of spots; waterloo, actium, 3. only started you with 1 place; feudal war, age of realms magic/might 4. maps that didn't have real territorial bonuses; circus maximus, age of merchants.Why is Pearl Harbor not off-limits?

Well the games aren't 1v1. They're 6 player games. This apparently was not very clear in the reading of the rules and I sincerely apologize for this. If you or anyone would like to withdraw or change their map now because you were thinking we would be playing 1v1 games I would completely understand.
Again my sincerest apologies for that oversight in the writing of the rules (I can't believe I did that...) I feel like such a n00b.
