Ok, I think I may be able to do this one. I ran out of time before I finished making the continent borders, but the general idea is there. I plan to continue making borders the same way all the way around, then move the circular emblems further out, and surrounding each one by several territories with a few individual bonuses. The Center piece will start with a high neutral value (15?) and have an auto-deploy of a medium number (7?). The emblems here represtent each of the tribes of Israel, and will be like the castles in Feudal or AoR, with an auto deploy of some other medium number (7?). The map will have one distinct advantage to the exsisting maps of similar play, and that is that it can accomodate the hypothetical future expansion of the game to up to 12 players (which I find doubtful, and I don't think that I would play a game like that anyway. But, HEY! It'd be great for a feudal style mini-battle royal if the admin ever decides to make one!) Also, I have a bit of an idea for the gameplay diffrence, in the elimination of all or maybe just auto deploy bonuses every 7 rounds (to be adjacent to the year of the Sabath (Leveticus)). Hmm... there were two or three other idea I can't seem to remember at the moment.
Forgot to make the central emblem layer visable before saving, and don't have photoshop at home, so Just to give an idea, just imagine a majestic picture of the arc of the covenant (the box from Indiana Jones: Raiders of the lost arc for those of you who don't know what that is.) With a soft glow behind it.
