I kind of miss the British bases... though they appear on the map in gameplay, they are not designated as such. I woul liek to see them designated somehow.

I agree. As said i'm open to change the numbers of territories needed

The idea is to simulate a sort of "political influence" / "people support" that gives to you additional troops to help you to take the control of the regions.
In the same time i must say that it looks a bit stupid if you have 7 regions and you don't try to take a zone bonus, specially if you think that each player starts the game with a single territory. The territory bonus seems more easy to hold to me and it should come before the other during a game.

About the two British Military Bases i forgot to write it on the map, but sure they can attack each other

I'll update it later, when back home

Thanks again

I think you go a little impassable crazy....and only plus 1 for 5/7 greek/turkish cities, respectfully?

by **thenobodies80** on Wed Jun 23, 2010 5:29 pm

the original idea was without the factions bonus and honestly i was happy with it, but i've added it to follow the suggestions.
Personally i want to keep this map with low bonuses, very low.
The big impassable is a wall that separates the two parts also in real life (for what i know actually they're planning to destroy it).

That font is a pain to read.

Yes, I agree wholeheartedly. A small map should have small bonuses.

Hi,

I liked the version with the British bases more, too. It was much neater. One more graphical comment: the sea looks a bit dreary, maybe yu could make it brighter and/or add some graphics in the sea?

Anyway, this is a cool project, keep up the good work!

I've made some changes following the suggestions given:

Factions bonus is now +1 every 4 and +1 every 5 instead of +1 for 5 or 7.
Faction bonus is displayed with a minimap --> Is it clear?
Removed the old minimap for a bonus list, I've also decided for different values for district bonuses.
Readded the british flag and a visual sea connection between the two BMB
More redeable font

Circles on district capitals have a purely indicative purpose (starting positions)

Looks interesting. Although the starting positions that are in the smaller 3-territory bonuses might have an advantage... easier to grab bonuses in the start.

the idea was:
kokkina covers paphos
paphos covers limassol
morphou covers kyrenia
Although i know that in some cases it could be a problem
Anyway i can change them in the gameplay workshop

Going to post here....viewtopic.php?f=63&t=105502

by **theBastard** on Tue Jun 29, 2010 4:21 pm

the new version looks fine. maybe natty is right about bonuses advantages, but it could be balanced by different numbers of armies in neutral territories...

Are the military bases part of the bonuses?

No they aren't. They are both killer neutrals.

by **Gilligan** on Sun Jul 04, 2010 7:36 pm

It seems like some of the starting positions are uneven in comparison to the others.

Example:

Morphou -> Kyrenia = 6 neutral
Paphos -> Limassol = 3 neutral
Famagusta -> Larnaca = 2 neutral
