Well the ball numbers currently go in a writing order (left to right, top to bottom). I feel it's the most logical way to arrange them. Is there a better alternative?

Yes, because the balls aren't placed on a line. Also, baseball is not a left to right, top to bottom, game. For example, ball 8 is ...

The ball numbers are still distractingly arbitrary. The order should be something like (in terms of what they are now) 1,2,8,4,3,5,6,7,9.

Awesome! This is more than beta quality IMO. I do have a few small nitpicks as well, although they are clarity not graphics related.

Since there's room in the national pride description, can it say "Extra +6 ..." to make it just that more clear. Not totally necessary but would make sure there is no ...

That looks great!

MarshalNey's comment was for Mike and Ted, not Mike and Lou.

Ya, I wasn't as wild about the third base ones. I was kind thinking it would be cool if it looked like the first baseman was catching a ball thrown by one of the other infielders, but not sure if it would work. Thanks for posting the pictures for me

first baseman: (sorry for the links, can someone post the pictures for me?)

For one thing, Ozzie and Jackie both appear to be left handed, which doesn't make sense for middle infielders. Can you just flip the images?

Ya, the inset and NJ toll is very crowded. You can also try just croping the map at the top and left a bit, and then give yourself some more space in the right and bottom. Also, "tolls revert" should be "toll reverts".

I'm excited!

Why complicate what should be simple....

'Region Number Bonus' is what it is, everyone knows that usually, region number bonus will give 1 additional troop for each 3 regions above 9 (on a minimum of 3)

12 = 4
15 = 5
18 = 6
...

so when you read that the 'Region Number Bonus' will give you 1 ...

Wow, major props! I really hope the gameplay ends up working because this map has loads of potential. I agree, in light of the classic layout (which I am still in awe of), I wouldn't add anything.

I am very confused by the "1 troop for every 2 regions above 6" statement. I see there is a bit of discussion about this already, but I don't have time to read it all. My main concern is that I currently have 10 territories (2 starting points and 8 "green" territories) and my "troops due" is 3. Any ...

I think you should either use the exact same icon for all the players or make a unique "cookie-cutter" icon for each (along the lines that were being discussed earlier: diving, running, etc.). I don't like the idea of using the same icons and just changing the color of a few... either the icons ...

Home plate should not touch the grass. The only thing that's unclear (IMO) is the two lines of dirt from home plate to first and from third to home (right now they are not anything). I suggest making LD2 RD4 and CD1,2,3 extend to the foul line. In other words, the territories should end at the foul ...

Sorry, bombards the pitchers: "Mound is a killer neutral and bombards the pitchers."

!!! I'm so happy this map is being worked on again!

Very nice draft Natty! I really like the stripes in the grass. Two quick comments: was the outfielders to infielders connection a one way assault? Also, I think you left out an explanation that the mound attacks the pitchers.

What about getting rid of the mini-map? All it does is tell the continent abbreviations, which can be done in a list with a lot less space.

One minor thing I just thought of regarding legibility: with the extensive auto-decays, should there be an explanation that if you only have one troop on a territory it does not become neutral? I know not all maps with auto-decays have this explanation, but since the gameplay is based on them, I ...

Awesome! Apparently the size restrictions have been loosened. TaCktiX, I don't know if/how this would work, but wouldn't a lot of the current troubles be lifted if the small version could be just a little bit bigger?

For those of you who haven't read the post on the CC home page, with permission ...

My only guess is WWII Europe (i.e. combining already existing CC maps into one large map).

I love the hybrid! I think there are still more neat gameplay features you could throw in as well.

You don't think this map is busy enough as it is?
Certainly not! It may appear daunting at first, but it really isn't. I think you could throw in a Woodboro station in each section of the map to ...

Maybe I'm wrong, but when the XML update came out they said that If I attack you and take a losing condition from you (i.e. your last base), then immediately you are kicked out and I get your cards, and all your territories go neutral (and in Terminator games I get your points). I'll see if I can ...
