The Infinity Cube

How about a map with no corners, nowhere to hide. Every territory on the map can be attacked by eight other territories. This will really test everyones skills. Especially if there are no bonuses.

I can't figure out how to add a picture, so I'll use this URL. Sorry!

Not exactly the most brilliant of pictures, but the idea itself is a interesting one...

looks exactly like Conquer4.

If you're talking about the same conquer4 as I'm thinking of, not so much...

what will the bonuses be? this map will be perfect for build games and stalemates from what i see

as you can see its basicly the same...

i agree with androidz... the concept of 8 way attacks is already being used by that game... the only thing is that there are corners and sides...

but you're not offering us anything in terms of super cool new gameplay, china on 2.1 touches 13 territs... i think like 7 territs on classic touch 6 other countries...

like i said earlier, give us some substantial information on what you are trying to do with this map

just because its an ideas thread doesnt mean you can say you wanna make so and so map because you had the idea. that would be a suggestion. ideas need to be conceptualized to a point before they're even worth looking at

This isn't conquer4, first of all. The corners of conquer4 have only 3 weaknesses.
The infinity cube wraps around. You can attack from corner to corner.
This map would be the perfect anti Australia/South America.
You can't conquer a country and then build a wall around it to keep it safe.
You can't get this type of gameplay on any other map. I PROMISE!

If it doesn't sound interesting to you then it doesn't sound interesting to you. It doesn't mean that it isn't an original idea, or a bad idea at that.

To answer the bonus question. I'm thinking that the only bonus will be the number of territories held.
