Thx for all the hard work behind the scenes. =D>

Bummer for the ongoing beta games but that is the risk playing beta i suppose (and understand). It hurts to lose those games but that is also the best proof that you liked them.

I was the beta conqueror with 6000 points LOL
Only because my ...

Upon further study. Cortez has the advantage over all other starting points.

Uku Pacha starting point is a MAJOR disadvantage. It has no easy pathway to the middle and that is the point of this map as it is drawn, get to the middle to win.

Visually better this way.

This looks interesting .

Nice collaboration .

Temples are the priority on this map. If you are in the West and hold a temple, you are basically safe from the east (trench style). If you are in the East and take that temple, you are not safe from the west unless you make that change. That is the unbalance as I see it. Even non trench, the West ...

I just discovered that the West side Nobles can attack 2 terts on the east side of the map and East side can attack 1 tert on the West. This makes no sense to me? Particularly because of the imbalance. West side attacks a very significant territory.

This was changed for comments the map needed ...

Also,
If you make the Crusader Stronghold a plus 2 or higher, it needs to be a stronger neutral at the start. Otherwise, in trench games, it is an easy grab from Persia X and a major advantage.
You could also make Persia 10 a starting neutral to equalize?

Not sure you need to increase the bonus for Cyprus or Portugal. To get the bonus, you will need to hold a Temple. That seems bonus enough.

I have played 7 games on the map. In my opinion, the Temples are too easy to grab. In a trench game, good dice can capture a temple on your opening move. This almost seals the game. My suggestion would be to increase them from neutral 4 to neutral 6 or 8.
Here is a recent game where my opponent ...

Give COF TOFU back, TOFU. It's his clan, based on history. There have been a few years of inconsistency but history and the success TOFU enjoyed in the old days when he was at the helm has to account for a lot.

@EW, so what if he wanted to cut a player because he didn't feel they were good enough ...

All good, I'll take that as a compliment. I've played plenty of classic risk and axis and allies and similar games before, and finding a site with unlimited access to scratch that itch for the price of a nice meal seemed like a fair deal to me. Not as easy to find people willing to sit down for a ...

I agree with Don. However, I do not fully understand how that map works. So, maybe my thoughts are not relevant...

Been traveling and dealing with some life issues. But, ready to pick this up if the others are?
There was some comments about settings and maps, earlier in this discussion. So, want to be clear what my options are before I set up a game.
Note: fog, trench are my preferred settings.

You want to hallucinate? Inject Tren every other day and take melatonin to get to sleep…or so I’ve been told.

That will just make you angry and tired at the same time ...

Good question. MT suggested a dubs challenge. I offered to team with Josko. Then, somehow, it morphed into a random series of one off's.

Some good dubs maps, from my perspective:
Kings I and II
Pot Mosbi
WWI Galip
Spanish Armada
Baltic Crusade
Conquer Rome -one of the best maps on CC
USA, France and World 2.1
WWII Australia
Eurasia
Napoleonic Europe
Trafalgar
Third Crusade
Europe 1914
Super Max Prison Riot

1/3 of those maps are ...

Lets make esc adj sunny dubs

I'm good with that. Just make sure we get the right map choices, i.e. nothing that starts with 12 terrs each and that sort of thing. Berlin is a great doubs map. Any other ideas?

And I really love the "First turn deploy only" rule. It makes such a difference, though ...

I am still open to dubs with Lou/Josko vs MT/CoF

This was in the balance for quite some time. Looks like a 28-27 TOFU win. Great war...
