Version 2.

Port Royal and Kingston have been added as mini-maps with attacking terts inside them.
Now 31 terts...map growing, but now becoming complicated.

Back on page one of initial discussion the above ...

In one of my very rare replies, the name of the map was decided in the map creating process of the foundry

Several years back I lost the original layered creations due to computer failure on a backup drive.

Now I have no desire to work on these as I have serious liver disease as well as cancer ...

Bug experienced in Round 29 in the turn of ejph: Barnstable should be able to bombard Barnstable LB and Swiftsure through Plymouth but I was unable to perform either of the bombardments. Barnstable was obtained in Round 28 and had 15 troops on it.

In the legend:
"Bombardments: Each ship region ...

Is Ogalulla a typo or a historical spelling? I could find no historical record spelling it that way. It should be with an "o" instead of a "u"

Also, Ogalalla peak is in Colorado. The town in Nebraska referenced by the map is Ogallala.

Thanks,

The town was named Ogallala, and I ...

Mormon fixed! And Ogallala too!
Somebody please test images over xml and upload if fine.

cairns

more than a few players want to see this map quenched soon.

are u in a position to do a few changes to let this happen? our plan is that this will be the final version, if all goes well.

kk beach: n7 to n6 (xml change)
m4 and m5: add +1 auto-deploy (xml change and 1-character graphics ...

cairnswk is still around, and frequently previews what people are saying.
I agree this should have been quenched ages ago.
But i'm not prepared to continue to put in any more time on this one as people will always have something wrong with it according to them.
Could you please, as a last favor ...

elow There is a bug... you can bombard Santa Ana S from Santa Cruz, and Santa Cruz is too far
Can we expect fix for this or the legend of the map will be changed?

GoranZ
I don't know where the mind was on my last post...

Here is the fix in the xml that deletes Santa Ana Stern from bombardment ...

iancanton wrote:well spotted, [player]GoranZ[/player]! santa cruz is not supposed to bombard santa ana stern. this is a simple one for cairns to fix when he has a moment.

ian.

Oh yes it does, but it does not bombard santa ana bow.
ian, no fix needed

Thanks ian.

One way to alleviate that situation would be to assign Kum Kale and L06 / Halil-Eli to different teams, or in case that is not possible, to at least reduce the number of neutrals on In-Tepe and F5 from 6 to 3
restoring kk beach from n7 to n6 and reducing in tepe from n6 to n3 might do the trick ...

cairns, have u decided against adding auto-deploy bonuses to the minesweeper locations ms4 to ms9? get back to you on that

did i really ask u to increase the kk beach neutrals from n6 to n7, thereby giving even more protection to kum kale? that does not seem like a good idea now and the ...

i especially recommend that we reduce the first-turn advantage by increasing the neutrals on 12 of the landing beaches from n3 to n4 and on l06 from n6 to n7, which stops so many of the beaches from being overrun before player two has even had a turn.

ian.

ian. i'll make this adjustment ...

No it is not a typo, but a creative slant on what actually occurred.

After 2 months now, can we get this into play on the main site. Then we can really see all the bugs and how it plays on all settings.

i'm just curious what the status is here.

You guys need to ask the boss.

Very minor point (just an XML tweak maybe?) but in a game I'm currently playing I own White Bear (next to Ark Royal in the middle top) - BOB and the map rules say I can bombard PTL(A) but I can't see the troops on the tert - it's just returning ?? for me. I havent actually tried to bombard it but ...
