Why is it taking so long for this map to go live?

I think it's the accent on the Y in Llyn.

I'll edit the XML now....

Updated XML - I've taken out the accented Y from Llyn, which might solve the problem?? PM sent to lackattack.

On the plus side, lack has uploaded the amended XML, so there should be no more headaches here!

So you wanted me to post this hear, and I forgot earlier, so I will now.

In the upper left hand corner, you have "LLYN", with the Y having an accented upside down triangle on it (been too long out of foreign language classes, I don't remember what that's called). However, in the attack/fortifications panel, it comes up as "LL?N"

Cheers Kotaro. I think I've sorted that now with the XML update ;-) If you notice anything else, please let me know ;-)

Pfft, I'm not playing this map again! Too damn confusing, I got so lost in it, and in 1v1's! My points took a terrible dive!

I'm wondering if 3 neutrals on each settlement is too high? I'm playing some tournament games on Arms Race, which has 2 armies on the neutrals... I'm wondering what others think about my proposal to reduce the settlements to 2 starting neutrals?

Hi MrBenn, nice map! I'm only in the second round of my first game on it and I like it already :)
One thing though. I know it might be a bloody stupid mistake I made and it became clear to me very quickly, but...
In the first block of the explanations, I misread it being
Capture both Shire CLANS, and the settlement and you will receive one bonus army.
I interpreted that as "When holding the Settlement (named right before and explained after that), if you have both clans aswell you get 1 bonus autodeployed on the Settlement aswell as 1 extra army to deploy elsewhere."
Of course it should be
Capture both Shire Clans and the settlement, and you will receive one bonus army.


Maybe put a comma there :)?

Just started playing this board (4-player, chained, no spoils).. and have some initial impressions..

1. Where are the shire names. ?? Or.. some color coding in the bonus listing..??

2. The southern 2-territory shire seems too easy to take.. especially with a random start
where someone gets a concentration there.. Maybe the other 2-bonuses should be 3..?

Other than that, it rocks..! :-) Very wild games..:-)
