Quick Link to Maps with Stats

Concise description:
  • Under the game menu, add a link to a page with all the Maps with map stats

Specifics/Details:
  • Quick link to see all of the maps under the game menu
  • To the list of maps, add stats such as region counts, whether the map has an alternate win conditions, map maker(s), etc.

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:
  • While the browse map link you find in the game finder/start a game is fine, it would be nice to have information on the maps. Some maps look small, but actually have 70+ regions. The maps are what makes this site so great, so why not promote them? Make it easy for new players to find them and see the variety of play. It also would be nice when making a new game to know the stats of the map to set it up just the way you like. Perhaps it would increase the 7 player game.. ;-)

I support this idea. It complements my suggestion here, which could be added into this.

Map Info Pages and Map Stats have long been something the Foundry Team and myself have been pushing for, and if we can get our way, they are something we may see in 2011.

I very much support this. I see no downside to having this except for the work that it will take to get it done (not as much as some things).

Not sure if this is updated now, but it wasn't last time I looked at it. And it's not really part of CC is it?

Proper 'Map Info Pages' I think is one of the targets of our next Feature update. More will come out about this as Lackattack and the Cartos Team gets work on it!
