Why do they need to be even? Is it a programing thing, or a design thing?

That could work, and would be a nice way for someone to expand from the head. Would it be a one way system?

Saying all that this is my first map and I'd like to keep it simple to start with.

Here's an update on the map with spelling corrected, spaces made for army numbers and lower neutrals.

I ...

Thanks Andy, Those are the kind of images I've been looking at, and decided it would be good to go with something graphic so that everything is clear, and added more regions because I'd like the map to have several tactical options.

I like those images you posted.

Best Wishes,

Nice idea but I feel drawing a line from the mouth to the grass would look odd, and possibly confusing.

The reason I put the killer neutral of 15 in the grass is to stop people from being able to easily take both legs. That way the army that holds one leg will need to decide to I use 15 of my troops to break the neutral or go up into the rest of the body. If it was a low number you wouldn't think ...

It should be "sirloin" not "serloin". Right?[/quote
in UK too
also tenderloin is use for pork cut mainly too
in beef its called Fillet
map looks good, i agree with neutral

I did a fair bit of research on google and tenderloin was regularly used, with the fillet almost never being mentioned. When ...

Thanks for the feedback so far. I'm not the best speller so thanks for spotting my mistakes. In terms of the neutrals, I'll lower the auto deploy ones to 4. But I think the pat should stay fairly high, because getting that is one of the keys to winning the map.

I,ll work on an updated version ...

That's interesting. The other map was last posted in May 2010.
So I don't have to read the thread what was the outcome?

Looking at the other cow map I think mine is a lot better looking and has more interesting game play elements.

Because it's been thought of before should I stop?

I'd like to ...

What do you suggest for the neutral values? Because they are auto deploy zones I thought I'd keep then higher than the normal 3. The grass is a barrier between the legs so I felt that needed to be high so you have a better chance of holding one leg instead of easily holding both.

In please, what's the worst that could happen?

I'll take the last spot if it's still open.

Foggy, no spoils, chained

Intereseting rule.

Does the same thing apply for tournaments?

Say you're in the final round of a 64 game tournament and to win you just need to make sure the 2nd place player doesn't win the final game.
If you throw that final game so the 2nd place player doesn't win does that mean you've broken ...

I'd like to play if it's not to late.

In please.

last one was great, in please.

It's getting exciting.
Down to me and Bogey.
Are you going to start another tournament once this one is done?
Is there a prize for 2nd?
Best Wishes,
Dana

ok I'm in. D-Day

I've been on the site for a few months now, and I think the scoring system works. If you get knocked down a rank or two then you need to learn from your mistakes, pray to the dice god and start over.

It's a lot like gambling and the points are your money.

Posting, or factoring in your highest ...

How long do players get to join, before they are kicked out?

I'm in if there are spaces left. Never played a tournament before.

Do I need to do anything else to play?

My first Tournament. I'd like to join if their is room.
