Mega-CC map-age...

Concise Idea
<Body>:
Suggestion Idea: Much like the alternate 'dual earth' set of rules, allow for maps to be 'connected'
Specifics: Each map would have it's own page, but armies would have points at which you could move from one to the next. Army and territory totals would be game wide on each page however.
This would only work with maps that have been added to a special list of maps that can be 'linked'.
Each map would have two (just to pick a number) places that 'link', to keep things uniform. (In dual Earth games, Earth Alpha Alaska links to Earth Beta Kamchatka, and vice versa. Fun way to play.)
You could potentially link more then two maps, for an even greater challenge.
Why it is needed: It's not, it just sounds like fun. The XML challenge seems minimal, though I could be wrong, and, as usual, it would be 'optional', so traditionalists wouldn't have to subject themselves to the heresy.
Priority - Very Low
