Geometry: Square [Version 1.20]

[plurple]

Map Name: Geometry: Square
Mapmaker(s): Plurple
Number of Territories: 81
Special Features: Transforms
What Makes This Map Worthy of Being Made:
New maps and a display of how transforms work! This is a conquest style map with 25 potential starting spots. These starting spots auto deploy 2. You will get 10,8,6,5,4,3,3,2,2,2,2 for each number of players from 2-12. All regions that are not the starting spots will transform: Orange and yellow territories will grow 1 a turn until they have >10 troops. Where Orange territories they will reset to between 4 and 8 troops and yellow ones will be reset to between 2 and 6. Aqua territories will lose 1 troop a turn unless they have 1 troop when they will be reset to between 2 and 6.

Saved for updates.

Update 1:
There is an additional transform that tries to make sure that in round 1 no player will have more than 3 troops on each of their starting spots to reduce the luck in going first. TODO: Add this information to the key.

Release Update:
Am a little unsure on this one I think it may be too large and the aqua territories may have a minimal impact though I like the interesting strategy of purposefully leaving it on a 1 to gain some troops but there are a lot of troop gaining across the map so may only be useful in larger 10+ player games if at all. I am looking for feedback on how the map plays and make adjustments to the balance or the graphics as it comes in

After Round 3, X6 Y2 did not transform. I manually snapped so you can see. I didn't notice any other issues.

Thanks for letting me know I don't know why this is I was made aware of it once on beta but thought it had been resolved I will see what I can do to fix.

Of course.
There are some more notes in the game as well. The last round, all the aqua squares transformed properly, so it's only happening erratically it seems.
