Stop now.

What? I'm doing the best I can to give a good experience to the foundry visitors, to ensure that they feel their feedback is being listened even when it's not being accepted. We wouldn't want to drive away commenters by casual comments, now would we?

Overall, I think I wouldn't mind seeing the river adjusted and some of those internal connections, but I don't think it is a must. From the games I played, the gameplay worked pretty well (from a 1vs1 stand point at least).

I'll do the river change, then we'll do some more playtesting, and if it sucks we can revert back to the current version.

Is this being uploaded?

[thenobodies80]

Sent to the turtle, sorry for the little delay.
I fell asleep yesterday so I didn't send the files.

[natty dread]

Ok, nice.

[thenobodies80]

The new version should be live now.

[thenobodies80]

Started a final bunch of 1vs1 to see how it plays. I rarely play team games, so if anyone wants to give a feedback about the new version (with the river change) it would be great!

[thenobodies80]

Natty, what are your thoughts about the current version? I played some games in these days...it doesn't seem so much different to me, just a bit more open in the middle. Anyone with a feedback about team games?

[natty dread]

Well, I'm satisfied with how the map plays now. I haven't heard any complaints about the current gameplay. If no further objections arise I'd be happy to have this quenched as it is now.

[thenobodies80]

OK, nice. Let's go with a last call then.

Last Call

If anyone has any other comments on tweaking the gameplay/graphics, now is the time to speak up! If there are no other concerns within the next couple of days, this map will be quenched!

One of the best maps I ever play.
Please do not change anything.
Congratilations for good work.

If I may give some suggestions for this map. I love it, but you have missed some points:

1. In SFRJ, Kosovo and Vojvodina were provinces of Serbia (and what you named "Serbia" was "Inner Serbia"). You could put "greater" bonus for holding whole Serbia (Inner Serbia, Vojvodina and Kosovo)

2. There isn't river between Syrmia and Slavonia. River Danube and Tisa divide Vojvodina in 3 regions: Bačka (between Danube on west and south, Tisa on east and Hungarian border on north), Banat (between Tisa on north-west, Danube on south-west and south, Romanian border on east and Hungarian border on north) and Syrmia or Srem (between Danube on north and east, Croatian border on west and Sava river on south).
You could just put Danube and Sava as rivers and maybe Morava
Your division of Vojvodina is ok, but you have made few mistakes with bridges:
-Slavonia and Syrmia are bordering and that border should be crossable
-You should put Danube between Bačka, Syrmia and Banat with bridge only between Bačka and Syrmia
-There should be bridge between Slavonia and Bačka (or Novi Sad how you named it)
-There should be bridge between Syrmia and Belgrade as bridge "Gazela" is one of the most crossed bridges in Balkans (it connects Syrmia and rest of Serbia)
-There is a bridge between Belgrade and Banat, but you could eliminate it to keep game interesting

3. You divided Bosnia and Herzegovina as it is now divided (between Federation of BiH entity and Republic of Srpska entity). Until 1992. regions in B&H were a bit different. In my oppinion you should have made regions: Posavina (North BiH, by river Sava), Bosanska Krajina (western BiH), Cazinska Krajina (north-west of BiH, bordering Croatia), Podrinje (eastern BiH), Herzegovina (southern BiH) and Central Bosnia (perhaps dividing it into Tuzla and Sarajevo)... something like this map

4. Your region "Podrinje" should me renamed to "Mačva" or "Šumadija" if you extend it a bit more

Those are my suggestions, if it's not too late for editing the map
