Is owning a bunch of ice where nearly no one lives worth much in real life? And ask yourself how many territories there are...

The idea of the 'Ice' isn't really meant to be a 'real' continent...it's more of a road and route to get to other areas...

so why have it at all!!!!!! or at least give it a decent bonus!!! Wouldnt u be swearing if your in a game and got dished out the full continent on ice artic...Its just thati see in other maps you are quite strict on border/bonus etc, which is good coz it shows that your doing your job.

sorry to break it to you happysadfun but this aint real life its a virtual board game lol

Actually, if I got dished out the continent on the start, I'd be happy to receive that nice little bonus! The Ice isn't intended to be a holding continent, but an attack route across the map. Think of it like a helipad or a sea connection...in that sense. Giving it a bonus...is actually something rather generous.

oh i c it...well rock on and lets do sum skating

i agree. if you give it a hefty bonus, then it puts too much to chance in the game. especially with games of 3 or 4, it would not be that odd to see someone start out with all of the ice. if they get a huge bonus to start then they virtually have already won the game.

How is this going? What else needs to be done?

Qwert · Post by **Qwert** » Thu Jan 18, 2007 8:34 pm

you can have bonus 10,but its wery dificulty to hold country with 9 borders.

im working on the coordinates now, but it might take some time seeing as all of them are completely off, im about a quarter of the way through the large map.

I'm looking forward to play on this map already.

Finally, here is the large version with armies. I have made no graphical changes, the arguments for the current ones were convinving enough (that and the fact that im lazy). The only graphical change is the texture in the legend, as I have managed to lose the other texture i had.

Quench!

Lupo · Post by **Lupo** » Sat Jan 20, 2007 7:06 pm

Do you think that the addition of parallels would improve the graphics of the map and could focus more the player on map theme?

Fitz69 · Post by **Fitz69** » Sat Jan 20, 2007 7:07 pm

no.

Quench!

Bad Speler · Post by **Bad Speler** » Sat Jan 20, 2007 7:19 pm

In response to Lupo, the land seems to be circular anyways, and paralles wouldnt really fit well with the graphics i have already put. Now here is the small version of the map with armies.
