if i should change them luke, what should they be

Well you need to know which way is being attacked but other than that i see no prob with them.

oh ya...i meant just an impassable, sorry that will be fixed on the newer version

hi LED ZEPPELINER,

Just a small point from me today, nothing to hard to digest. Your 'note' on the map is needlessly long. You don't need the point about the neutral that X starts with, people will see that when they start a game.

The sectionabout an automatically deployed bonus is still needed though but could be reduced to 'Automatically Deployed bonus of +3 on X'. Short simple and staright to the point.

So basically what I am saying is, change your long 'note' to:

'Automatically Deployed bonus of +3 on X'

and you are good to go.

I like the idea of a Treasure Map. I like the look of this map, but to me, it doesn't make me think of a treasure map. A treasure map is to get to the 'X' where all the gold is. This map just has an 'X' on it for no reason.

Would it be possible to make this map a goal map? So everyone is fighting to get to the 'X' first? Then you could also add traps and such around the map. Like -ve modifiers and such. And each ship could be the starting point for the players. Everyone starts out as one of the pirates.

I've been lurking the Map Foundry recently, and at this point, this map looks more fit for the Pirate Attack map someone started, than a Treasure Map.

That is a great idea, i think i might try it, the only problem with the boat idea is that if there are more than 5 people playing then one might get a better or worse position than the others, and if the boats aren't the starting place, someone could start out with a better drop...unless that whole island were to start with neutrals

I figured my suggestion might mean changing the map quite a bit, but I thought I had to suggest it. I liked the Treasure Map idea, but when I looked at your map, it didn't look like something I would play....YET.

I like the idea of the 'X' island being neutral. I also think that there should be no direct connection from the ships to the 'X' island. Only way to get to the main island is to get there from the other islands. Sort of like following a specific path laid out by the treasure map. In order to allow for 8 players, you can add more ships. And maybe they don't connect either and each has a specific landing spot.

Anyway, I'm definitely not an expert here. I'm not sure what is need to make sure the logistics of a map work. I give all you guys who try to make your own maps credit. Because I'm sure it's really hard to make sure everything work the way it's supposed to.

I have decided to change my map based off of some of your ideas. The island that has x on it will start out with 7 or 5 ( i haven't decided yet) neutrals, and x will start with 10. each of those neutral territories will be a killer neutrals, except for x. to win you either eliminate the opponent(s) or you hold x for 2 turns. I am also changing the look of the map.

7 or 5 is a bit much. Just 3/4 on the island and 7/10 on the X should be good.

If its 4 on normal and 7 on x, then somebody only needs to get through 11 pieces,if playing flat rate, and one gets a mixed set, they could win the game fairly quickly
