Its really the small that needs it, the numbers overlap.

My view on the gameplay.

-With no easy way of elimenating a palyer I think a start of 1 would be sufficient. Since you build troops at a decent rate anyway there is no problem of a slow start.
-All coloured rings start with the same number of neutrals. The reason for this is because the further targets dont offer any more of a bonus for conquering them that the closer targets do.
-Reduced the deploy for all archers and changed it to auto deploy. This was becasue 17 was far to high. And making it autodeploy means the archers are always in control.
-Since targets give you more bonues the further away they are they have an increasing neutral value.
-Tweeked the lobby and color bonuses becasue I thought tehy where to high before.
-Added steve the buddy, he doesnt do much but will be fun to shoot :P

These are all fine. The bonuses were all very high anyway, and i understand all of your points. IMO, its really the same thing, just it has all around smaller values, which is good.

The new objective is fine, because if you hold your archer and all the targets, you're bound to win anyway.

Honestly, i will never win a game on this map because i will waste all of my armies trying to shoot steve...but thats totally awesome 8-)

So i guess i have to do the xml now.....

NO not killer neutral. He'll be used for bombardment and as a card terr for those occasions that you dont have the troops to take anything else.

Add a line about the lobby attacking archers in the legend and you might be there... I'll have to give it a closer look.

And this map SCREAMS animated gif. Steve the bunny should be laughing at us to provoke an attack.

Im not sure if i can put Steve's armies off the map, so maybe you could put:
"Steve starts with: " and i will put the armies there, since it will always be 1 neutral, so it would look like part of the map.

That might be a little bit distracting... it depends on how it is done.

I think that anything is fine as long as it is not constant. I think that if Steve was hopping around the map all of the time it would be kind of annoying.

I think as long as it stays in the same general area its fine. Maybe even have him staying still most of the time. He could occasionally blink, jump a couple of times, open his mouth, even eat a carrot or something.

something as subtle as a blink every seven or eight seconds would be brilliant
