Bunker hill would be good but i don't think that the whole revolutionary war would bad either but it seems harder to do bonuses with the whole thing.

actually bonuses arent that hard to do, its just hard to do an idea that isnt like... uh... benelux i think its called? idk, but other websites have done revolutionary war maps and so its harder to make them, although i had a good idea that im pretty sure hadnt been done before for it a month back, but i forgot it :cry:

It could be like the Civil War map, but with the Thirteen colonies and some British ships on the coast, maybe indian bonuses in the west.

I think the french and indian war would easier and very similar. it would be pretty much the same map but with a little more in the north and west.

yes but you would also have to include probably england and indian settlments and france and french ships before you would have enough territories

Not that hard to do bonuses, you could have southern states like +1, Middle states +1, Northern States +1, Canada +2, England +3, France +3, General Washington +2, General Cornwallice +2, General Clinton +1, General (whatever that traitor guy is that went to the brithish side after success with the americans) +1

HE wasn't a general and he was not that much of a trator. He became a trator because his brilliant strategy of having soldiers in the trees won a major battle but he didn't get any credit so he went to the british who actualy liked him.

How about the Battle of Saratoga? The map would probably fall together well and it was a major turning point during the war.

Saratoga. Looks pretty good, a little concentrated, though. Zoom in on the middle?

wow thank you for your quick reply to my suggestion, that was what I had in mind but my computer skills are non-existant.I hope this map can be seen through I think it would be a great idea for a map.And we could get an American team vs British team to battle it out on it. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

thank you very much,
