Bamboo Jack (Thai POW Railway) [Quenched]

Bamboo Jack

aka: Bridge On The River Kwai or The Thai-Burma POW Railway

Latest Version - V26

The following poem is the prelude to this new map below in its infancy.
Please read the poem as background to the map. I'd like to include the poem in the map but space does not allow it.

Concept.
This new version 5 map is a combination of style of attack. It uses the rivers as borders between terrs rather than impassables.
While it is very linear i.e. upa dna down, there are attached POW camps to the rail sections plus a bridge to conquer for bonuses.

Conquer the entire map for a win.

Original Version 1.

I like it. Can you capture the bridge for a win? On the map it says you can but above it it says that you need to capture everything to win?

That is what I was wondering.

I like the map but the tree on the right makes the map seem cramped

OK...gimil....nice joke, but please can we stop all the sherbert business, and get back to topic, in this thread and every other one. I told you before, creative energy is my "juice". This map is yet another graphic challenge.

Thanks tim02 for commenting....all the graphics are "up for grabs" and the borders will be attended to, don't worry.
as for how i find the time...i just do, if you're into computer graphics and drawing, you'll make the time....it's all a challenge.
