Kind of what I was thinking. Thanks again for taking the time to put those together.

Really your only big issue is testing the newer green (personally I like the original Kelly green myself, but c'est la vie...) of the first 8 players, its the only one that's different from the original 8. If the gameplay is hinged on the ships, then I'd advise capping the player amount at 8, and thusly you won't even need to worry about the other 4 colors.

CURRENT UPDATE INFO - 2013-09-08:
- Updated the 888 army numbers to the new colors. See the OP.
Also, because the 8 starting Exploration Ships are such a large part of the gameplay this map should be limited to 8 players max.

Koontz, can you please explain how to do this? For some reason v.j. is thinking we can't based on the TKoC city bonus coding issues we went back and forth with.

With the ships, place a neutral into the regions code. So all ships will start neutral if not deployed.
Code: Select all
<territory>
<name>Big Ship Whatever</name>
<borders>
<border>Small boat with half eaten man</border>
</borders>
<coordinates>
<smallx>177</smallx>
<smally>474</smally>
<largex>207</largex>
<largey>550</largey>
</coordinates>
<neutral>4</neutral>
</territory>
Then at the beginning of the code, when you do your starting positions, give them a max handed out.
Code: Select all
<positions max="2">
<position>
<territory>Big Ship Whatever</territory>
</position>
<position>
<territory>Big Ship of Lost souls</territory>
</position>
<position>
<territory>Seamus ship of wenches</territory>
</position>
So what you will get is positions being handed out at a max of two per player. If a ship is not handed out, the region will start neutral 4. Positions will override the neutral when they et given out.

I started to go insane how can we have 9 regular territories for 2 player game when there is 29 territories so it must be 14 and then I found this small post on page 10!
Fucking Seamus, thanks for letting me know they changed this in the game! I fell asleep at 2.30am last night asshole thinking I'm going crazy and can't do math and I'm not even American!

I actually said we can't have 2 max filters because in 2 player game we'll have 14 territories plus 2 ships and Seamus wants 9 plus 2, since you are an old fart you couldn't come to the conclusion that I'm calculating wrong because I wasn't informed that 1/3 of the territories goes to neutrals
thanks for sharing Seamus, can't wait to go to lunch with you!
Anyways xml has been posted to the check thread so we can get the party started. Thanks to everyone for their contribution!
