they actually are oriented toward the archers, its just some are on the right side of the map, some on the left, some are closer, and some are farther away!


everything but the 10 yard one looks too anglled.

The thing is that they are just flat images that i created...so that would mean restarting them...and im extremely lazy, and have no time.

I want to add the decay to each of the targets but the only way i know how to do it is:
<bonus>-1</bonus>
and that doesnt autodeploy...or does it?
also can a territory have more than one bonus (one bonus, one auto-deploy) because all of the terits with decays already have a bonus tag.

Should i just take the decays out all together?

decay is just auto deploy, all you do is add a "-" in front of the number.
What do you know about map making, bitch?

I'm not an XML guru, but I think so, otherwise, the 1 and -1 would cancel each other.

I like this map - well I like the premis...

However - I really dislike your faux 3d on the targets...

should i just take out the 3d all together and just have circles?

Can i get a poll on this? or is that not needed?

Also - am I right in saying...

You get a bonus for just holding 1 territory?

And then you get the target bonus on top?

If so - those bonuses are gonna be huge - quickly...

If I were you - I'd just drop the "Target bonuses".

Yep, huge bonuses- i think it would be fun.

Thats why there is a 150 neutral on the wall-- some people are going to grab all the bullseyes, some will go for targets-- some will sit on their archers and try to take the wall while no one's looking.

If i take the target bonus out, no one will go for the smaller bonus, only the bullseye. Also no one will go for the farther targets b/c there would be no point.

Well there would be point - because everyone else will be going for the lesser targets and bickering over them!?

Maybe not though...

But please fix the faux 3D!!

the map is full of weird graphic bugs:

- stars aren't centered
- borders inside the targets are pixelated
- colours inside the targets blend into one another very poorly because of the excessive use of the blur tool
- above the gold word there's a weird blue line
- same bellow "each archer: 17" or bellow word "bonuses" in top right
- the notes in bottom left change from gray to bright white
- the wall has a skewed line to the right of the image. please make it straight.
- word "wall" is not centered
- smilies aren't perfectly centered and aligned
- A1-A8 aren't aligned

btw where's the background from? cause i know you didn't create it. does it have copyright?

Hi Kap... for starters, I'm going to try to give gameplay feedback based solely on the map and the background information in the first post. If there is any gameplay information that I need to be aware of that is scattered throughout this thread, please include it in the first post.

My first question is why on earth would anybody want to attack the 10 yard target? Since it can't hit the archers it doesn't help you win, and with the negs for holding each target the +5 for holding the entire thing is a wash. If there's no benefit to capturing it,nobody will attack it and it's a waste of map space.

Wait... there are also color bonuses per target? So, there's a bonus per target, a bonus per color, and a neg. per target? Maybe that could be simplified.

I'll be able to get a better picture of how a game will play out once you have an idea of how many armies each space will start with, but my immediate thought is that every game will end up being a boring build-up game as players wait for somebody else to hit the 125 army wall. And it's only one wall, right? Once it comes down it's a free-for-all!

The wall could use the new Killer technique... (if you made it less!)

I will fix all of the things you said.

And i made the bg myself....kinda. Paint Shop Pro has these picture tube thingys, and one of them is called "lawn". that's what i used (but it was made entirely with PSP, so there is no copyright) :D
