A.
Code: Select all
castle +5
castle + village +2
village + resource pair + 5
castle + resource pair + 5
sanctuary +5


same fast paced action but with more incentive to expand and get resources and stuff. 1v1 will remain the same but more strategy should come in 6p games. plus by making the village + resource, castle + resource and sanctuary worth +5 it will give a chance to come back in the game to those that lost a castle and furthermore in fog games the confusion will be even higher because of the many +5 bonuses.

B.
Code: Select all
castle +5 (autodeploy)
castle + village +2
village + resource pair + 5
castle + resource pair + 5
sanctuary +5


same as previous version except the autodeploy should make the 1v1 less fast paced.

C.
Code: Select all
castle +3 (autodeploy)
castle + village +1
village + resource pair + 3
castle + resource pair + 3
sanctuary +3


same idea but lower bonuses. slow paced expansion games.

i have made another thread in general discussion to get a more ample batch of votes.

look at post above, but since chapter 2 is already in production there's no need for this poll, the map will remain as it is.

BUG!!!

on the map, The country on the island with Sanctuary, it is labeled as "Lo'ln".
in the dropdown menus, its labeled as "Lol'n". the ' symbol is moved one letter over....

Lo'ln
Lol'n

not a big bug, but needs to be changed.

I think that you should leave the bonuses as they are, this map requires a completely different strategy from all the others and thats what makes it so interesting and why its so popular.
However it might be fun to change it round for about a week so we can try it the other way a few times

I agree.
leave the bonuses as they are now.

right now, i think everything is pretty balanced, and it leaves lots of room for experimentation on the players side of the map.

right now there are so many possible strategies, changing anything would mess up the balance.

my only suggestion is to bump the bonuses up for sanctuary just a bit.
Right now, that +2 bonus is close to worthless for holding sanctuary, when you could use your armies and get a much bigger bonus in other places on the map.

i suggest bump it to +5. then things would get very interesting.

all the terits except for the castles will start as neutral.
so in a 2p game each person starts with 2 castles and 2 are neutral
in 3p each gets 2 castles no neutrals
4p 1 castle each and 2 neutrals
5p 1 castle each and 1 neutral
6p 1 castle each.


as it has been stated elsewhere that this site will have 8 player games in a future update would not two more castles in anticapation of this make a lot of sense


i told you so :wink:

In game 6875809, a game of triples, you will see that Yellow was kicked out for missing too many turns. Pink hade troops for Boron and just took one territory in his turn before receiving 5 troops for Boron plus 5 troops for Mua which presumably had been Yellow's castle.

Surely, when a player is kicked out his castle reverts o neutral rather than to another player on his side?

well that's something that happens in all maps in doub/trips/quad,if a player gets kicked his troops and spoils will become to his partners


When a player is auto-kicked in a team game, the first surviving teammate inherits the troops and spoils.
