Sorry I'm still confused on some things but thank you for taking the time to help me understand.
I'm confused about the conditional border. Perhaps asking more direct questions will help me understand.
Do I need to hold S&B of the same banner to hit the M?
Can any S or B hit any M?
Do S&B only hit the same banner M?
If I kill all of a players start regions besides there M before they go will they be dead?
I don't think bombarding and assaulting are the same thing. If I'm bombarding that means I don't advance a troop if I win the assault. If I'm assaulting then I need to advance at least 1 troop onto that region. I'm fine with you only changing it if a lot of others object I'm just voicing my thoughts.
Supply ship is a ship region I suppose. Thank you. Again my confusion here is that the regions on your map are ships. For me, I don't think it is clear that your map is of a bunch of ships but I have inferred that every spot is a ship from reading posts in this thread. I also didn't realize what you meant by army but I now see the few spots in the bottom right corner of the map that are the army spots.
The wording for Treasury Movement:
Here is what I understand the two points as saying.
POINT 1:
-There is a region called monarchs commander and it is represented with an M
-This M region is a starting position
-This M region is part of Treasury
-This M region can assault its own Treasury regions by following the 1 way arrow.
-The 4 treasury regions are +1,+3,+4,+5
POINT 2:
-Monarchs Commander (M) can assault from any treasury region to the same ship (B & S), SS, or LB of the same banner.
Am I misunderstanding any of the facts in the two points?
Point 1 says Monarch's Commander (M) can one way assault the T spaces of the same banner.
Point 2 says Monarch's commander can assault from any treasury region to the same ship.
Consider using this verbage on the classic map.
Monarch's Commander is Astana, T1 is Moscow, T2 is Stockholm.
Pretend there is the same sort of one way attack path for these three regions. T1 and T2 can one way attack the australia regions(used to represent the SS/LB/B&S of each banner)
Would you say:
Point 1: Astana can one way attack Moscow then Stockholm for an autodeploy of +1,+2
Point 2: Astana can assault from Moscow or Stockholm any region of Australia?
In my mind you wouldn't It isn't Astana that is doing the attacking it is T1 or T2(Moscow/Stockholm) that are doing the attacking not Astana.
The problem for me here is you are using Monarch's commander both as a territory name in this game (M) and as a "role". For you the Monarch Commander is in charge of M and all of the T's (as I understand it). I think using the same word to describe two different things on a map can be confusing.
What is the difference between the command ship and commanders ship?
Can you please provide me with an example of each?
Here is how I understood it.
1. From the picture in the legend of an S&B in a hexagon (yellow and red backgrounds) in the "Command Ships:" section of the legend I assumed those are command ships.
2. Under the second bullet in "Treasury Movement:" section it states "to any commander's ship(B&S)". This parenthesis implied to me that B&S comprise a commander's ship. Bob confirms this attack path is correct too but I have not tried it in game.
The earn makes sense to me now. I was viewing it as a column header.
I don't have the time to check many forums nowadays besides the clan forum as I'm not as active as I used to be. That is why I have not been to this thread before. A friend sent me an invite to this game and I'm just trying to figure out how the map works. I figured asking for clarification would hopefully allow me to figure out what goes on in the map.
For you the map has been in development for years but as it is Beta most people won't see it. Think about video games in the real world. Developers develop for a long time and nobody besides those on the team know about it. Then it goes to beta and a bigger number of people know about it. Then it goes live and even more people know about it. I would love to devote time to helping develop maps in the pre beta stage but I don't have enough time to give. If I can catch a map in beta and put my .02 in I will.
That does not mean I expect you to make changes just because I have an issue. As I said I'm fine with you not changing anything. I also agree with your point that it should only be addressed if others have issues. I'm merely voicing my thoughts.
Mainly I'm looking for clarification on attack routes and rules so I know how to win the game I am in now on it.
Thank you for your time.
