Some maps are cursed

[snufkin]

Siege!

First it was just the usual "oops a little unlucky, but I guess it´ll even itself out eventually"

..then (2 rounds of attacks) I lost 14 armies and they only managed to kill 1 enemy army.

who wants to be king with such useless soldiers..

[Jmey]

I was playing and conquered over half the board with over 40 armies in one place and i seperated them to defend the swamp entrance to the cave and the gate...

to my suprise when ever i atack my armies always lose and i never win... i ended up having to retreat for a short while of fort up... im still playing it

its game 426606

any advise people?...

AFRICA

I can never seem to get anything going on this map, finally I have one where I have a good start, but it's against 4 noobies, their first game ever.

British Isles

Greatest map in the game, I think I had 8 wins in a row on this map at one point. I'm still pushing 70% win rate here.

Classic hates me.


That's all I am saying.

[pancakemix]

Classic hates me.


That's all I am saying.

Same here.

[Machus]

I already have a feeling I'm going to suck at Terminator games, no matter what map it is.

[Coleman]

My cursed map is British Isles. Just recently replaced Europe.

[jagorev]

I really, really dislike US Senate. Way too flat and symmetrical, and it's difficult to build up any kind of substantial force. I'm also not a fan of Ancient Greece.

My favorites, in my brief experience so far, are Europe and Alexander's Empire

I agree that my view of a map is directly correlated to how many times I have won or lost on it. I seem to do well on British Isles, Classic and Middle Earth but cannot win for love or money on Europe or USA. Hopefully there will be a reversal of fortune on the bracket tournament

Heh, if i win, i play again. If i lose (a bunch) ... bye bye mappy. *hehum*asia**

[DirtyDishSoap]

Europe is just horrible for me, i keep trying to play it thinking my luck might change, but it doesnt

[MOBAJOBG]

I've played and lost all of the 5 games on Space map.
I've played and lost all of the 3 games on Alexander's Empire map.

I'm TOTALLY convinced these maps are unplayable.

[pancakemix]

I'm starting to find a weak spot in Coral Coast.

[RobinJ]

My first game on Great Lakes and I'm hating it! I got a terrible lie, I now have less than half the armies than everybody else (round 3!) and they're all sitting with a couple of continents and I'm struggling to get 1 2-army bonus!

[podge]

I'm in the exact same position, although I got a really sweet drop the dice have killed me, first round 6 on 3 to get the conti ends up 1 on 2, 2nd round 6 on 2 ends up 1 on 1. needless to say I'm toast.

[alex_white101]

i absolutely love classic map, i dont play that many other maps, ive played most but simply dont find them as good, i think siege would be my 2nd fav map and africa my 3rd. but no maps created in my opinion get anywhere near to classic.

[Skoffin]

My lucky maps seem to be the ones other's don't want to play. Crossword, king of the mountains, chinese checkers and discworld are my best.

Classic doesn't like me. At all.

[bikri]

Although I play classic, I never seem to do well.

I *love* Siege, won both my games on it.

I usually seem to do well on Crossword, but that's maybe because so many noobs don't understand the board and they get confused.

Although I've won the one game of 8 thoughts I've played, I dislike the board.

And I really dislike Chinese Checkers....nothing interesting about it, just seems to come down to placement and dice rolls....
