will there be army circles? If not I think there should be.

Why

Don't listen to him. Army circles would ruin the map.

Yeah, I agree... no circles.

Looks good to me... you got a version with some numbers on it?

by **WidowMakers** on Wed Feb 17, 2010 6:10 am

These images are version 10 but they are the same as version 11 above as far as 88 placement.

I'm still having problems running the XML through the mapmaker tool... I don;t know if it's the laptop of the XML (file, url or host)... the url has a double-slash ("//") in it - is that right?

by **WidowMakers** on Wed Feb 17, 2010 9:33 pm

try this. There was a space between teh words and for soem reason that messed up teh new map tool. I added a "_" and now it works

Finally found time on the PC to check - not too sure if the mapmaker wasn;t working due to the XML or my laptop or a combination of both :-k

Anyway...

Beta - Quenching

---The Final Forge period has concluded for the Germany Revamp. All objections have had their time. The Foundry and I hereby brand this map with the Foundry Beta Brand. Let it be known that this map is now ready for BETA Play. After an extended period of time in BETA and once all quirks and issues have been resolved, the map will be put into Full Play (barring any Lack vetoes).

Conquer Club, enjoy!

Hey! It's a very nice map, but I've noticed the error with Trier also and Nürnberg is spelt wrong. (It's Nürmberg on the map).

by **Silvanus** on Tue Feb 23, 2010 4:48 am

hehe, I also wanted to report the typo with Trier, good that it's already been recognised.

Funnily enough the misspelled version of Nürnberg sounds more like we pronounce this city here in some Bavarian dialects.
But it must be "Nürnberg", of course

by **AndyDufresne** on Tue Feb 23, 2010 6:12 pm

Hope the spelling issues will be looked into! Otherwise it is a great map.

Sorry for the delay. Have been busy.

Version 12

on the small map, can u widen the waterway between bremen and lübeck a touch? the border with braunschweig looks nearly like a four-way and, in a recent game (the one where u gained ur hat - congrats!), i found myself looking very closely at this border more than once.

by **MrBenn** on Tue Mar 16, 2010 6:24 pm

I've been meaning to request this for some time, but I have just added the following text to the guidelines for the Forge:

While the map is nearing the end of the Beta phase, the mapmaker(s) will be asked to populate the Map Portal Database.

I'd be grateful if somebody would be willing to oblige, and could notify in this thread once it's done... Thank you! O:)
