map info: number of starting territories for each map?

[scottp]

I could have sworn there was once a legend at the bottom of the map image that popped up if you clicked the small icon in Game Finder or Start A Game. Now it's just a link to the discussion thread, and the info is not readily available in those.

What I'm looking for is, for each map, a listing like:

"2 players - 14 territories each, 3 players - 10 territories, 4 plr - 7, 5 plr - 6, 6 plr- 5, 7 plr - 4, 8 plr - 4"

The reason behind my curiosity is for when I'm considering joining a game on a map I'm not really familiar with. I would not want to join a 1v1 game on Australia, for example, because each player starts with 12 or 15 territories (if I recall correctly). The first player has a huge advantage... even moreso than the normal advantage of going first. If I'm not mistaken Seige is another map like that. Likewise, I would not want to join a 3 player game where each player starts with 12.

Anyway, I'm pretty sure this info is available, because I'm nearly certain I've seen it in the past. I just can't remember where. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks!

This info is in the official guide for the 40+ maps that have official strategy guides -

thanks for the reply!

[unfortunately, that's not a user-friendly way to get the info at all... I think I will post a suggestion to add that info at the bottom of the images hosted at maps.conquerclub.com so you can get at it directly from the "join a game" page.]
