I've sent the files to lack... Once he's updated it, the new (old?) version will be live!

The map is back in play

This thread can go back into the viewing gallery, since it's no longer in Beta....

I know this map has been quenched, but I have to post this. I just started my first game on this map (Game 7755522), a 6 player game, and the first person to go had a bonus of +4 (from having 12 territs), and the next person had a bonus of +12! I had a bonus of +9. In a 6 player game, these high bonuses, and especially the deviations in them, are very alarming. Was this really intentional?

Yes, and this map justifies it. It has been discussed many times, over and over, but then we don't expect you to read the thread.

The thread is 58 pages long, sorry I don't have the time to read it through. I was mostly just wondering if it was a fluke drop or if, as you said, the map justifies it. But sarcasm works too.

I was not being sarcastic. sorry that you misinterpreted that. I merely wanted to point out that you wouldn't know and that yes, we do not expect you to read the thread as it is too long.

Haha, sorry about that. That's why I hate message boards/only forums. BTW, after my initial shock at the initial bonuses, this is turning into a really cool map

I can't seem to figure out, how do I conquer airplane.
As stupid as question is.
Please help!

From the ships that the planes are firing at.

THX. I guess I misread instructions and took it for one way attack.

Possibly, but the arrows are the one-way attacks, which are marked; these are almost standard on CC maps.

Can this be fixed? Surely you can't agree this is fair...

What do you want fixed Sully? I can't tell a damned thing from your graphic

I think Sully is referring to the uneven "troops due" to begin the game. I had the same reaction the first time I played the map. But Sully, the map works... its actually a bit brilliant. Just let the game play out.

Gee, cairns, you take criticism so lightly, don't you? Don't worry, cairns, you'll find that spring in your step soon enough.

Thanks, carl, for clearing that up, I suppose I wasn't clear. I'll play it out, but I honestly don't have high hopes...

We just played this with escalating spoils. The folks that started with more troops certainly didn't keep the upper hand for very long.

Sully, I didn't take it as criticism. It's just what i suspected.
This issue just happens to have been round the world several times for people like yourself who don't bother to read some of the thread to see if it has been mentioned before.
For your info, we even changed the map so that the bonuses weren't so uneven, end eventually most (including myself) wanted the original back, which is exactly what you have now.
Good luck with your games, and keep your hopes high....you never know!!

In Sully's defense, I doubt someone who had a screenshot and a quick question wanted to read 60 pages just to most likely still be adamant on asking said question/posting said screenshot.

You couldn't be further from the opposite of truth.
