The Final Forge period has concluded for the Philippines Map. All objections have had their time. The Foundry and I hereby brand this map with the Foundry Brand. Let it be known that this map is now ready for live play (barring any Lack vetoes).

Conquer Club, enjoy!

Thanks, people :D

I sent Andy the image links, so he can study the map looking for any coordinate errors, and also sent to lack the xml. I believe its in their hands now...

I played (and won) the first game in my Brazil map... I hope this can happen again :twisted:

Thanks, friend :)

Haydena, are the images in the previous page with same problem to you?

It's just the wording, it's small, blurred and hard to read on my screen, thats probably my low quality monitor though I think.

By no means slating the map though, amazing work! Looks great, much better than the Brazil map :).

Excellent job- very nice map. I am looking forward to trying it out.

One point- it is Ilocos not Icolos.

Well, one other point. My wife is from Tarlac. She says no Filipino would call that area Tagalog, rather, Katagaluguan is what they would call it.

Sorry to bring it up late. I just noticed the map- I don't spend much time in the forums.

Anyway, thanks for the hard work.

:lol: How couldnt I realize it? The funny things is that I never read Ilocos. Ok, I will correct that. Thanks :wink:

And thanks all for the good comments :D

Marv, gotta hand it to you. I am in 6 and thoroughly enjoying the ports. Very nice touch.

Can we change something on the Phillipines map?

I don't know if a map already in play can be changed, but the Phillipines map has one really obnoxious problem.

It has a territory called "Cayagan" and another territory called "Cagayan", with the only difference in spelling being that the "y" and "g" are switched.

This can be VERY confusing for anyone who controlls both territories. Several times during my fortification phase, I sent troops to the wrong one. Fortunately, I only played it with Unlimited fortification, but this could be a major pain in the neck if you're using Chained fortification. Also, I once made the fatal mistake of putting my reinforcements on the wrong one, which may very well have cost me the game.

Is there any way to change the name of one of these territories?

any map that's already in play can be changed.

about your problem i'm not sure it will though. those are probably the real names of those regions. :wink:

the only advice i can give is to pay more attention next time
