what prompt did you use

Which year's electoral college? The map changes once a decade, sometimes more often.

Oh, yeah, I didn't even look at the font color of the numbers rather than the color of the regions. I'm colorblind, so tiny splotches of color are nearly impossible to parse, anyway; big fields of one color are much easier. And it's not clear, from name alone, exactly which regions are where.

Is ...

I think at minimum the various bonus regions should be colored the same way they are on the legend, just like in 4 Star Meats. The description is still confusing though so I'm looking forward to the updated one.

Just my first thought after having first turn on the map. I actually had pretty bad ...

I don't understand the statement "Opposite sides of a chasm are adjacent for your favoured territories." As far as I can see, there are no chasms where the opposite sides have the same favoured race. Does that mean if you hold either favoured race you can cross both sides of the chasm?

Correct ...

why have the AI bots come to conquerclub

Why do Jungle 22 and Jungle 26 border each other? The map lines pretty clearly suggest that they shouldn't:

Sure I can help, here is what I bring to the table:

Ah, glad to finally see some movement on maps in the Foundry.

Wait...

Still hoping this map could be advanced to Beta before 2035...

Is the map maker still around? Had a quick look doesn't look like it :(

I just had a quick look on the beta site and this map never made it over there so latest image we have for it looks to be V.14 and would need xml being made for ...

Now it's been more than three years...and for some reason the beta site never updated with the new version...

Ah, that's too bad. One more year and the 13 in dolomite's name would have referred to how long this took to quench.

for this setting, balance appears to be fairly good. player 1 won 15 games (58%) and player 2 won 11 games (42%), while skill is not especially rewarded, as the higher-ranked player won 12 games (46%) and the lower-ranked player won 14 games (54%).

Is that...a good thing, though? If the lower ...

Apparently Discord is not a good image host.

Sounds good!

...I don't? Are you sure about that? The log sure seems to think I do...

Ooh, transforms. It only took, what, a decade for someone to make and start testing one of these maps?

The text has a nice glow on the big map. That helps keep it legible at these small pixel sizes. But considering text is even smaller on the small map, it should definitely have that glow there as well...

309 xml is loaded successfully as live beta! this is the same as the 308 xml, except with +1 auto-deploy for each kingdom.

if all goes well, then this will be the final xml.

ian. :)

how long to know if all goes well?
Just over 12 hours, if his original prediction is to remain true (in the one ...

To the people saying "yes on the +1", did you actually try it out on multiplayer ?
I don't understand how it can be at the same time "a huge benefit" and on the other hand, "only draw out the inevitable".

That was referring to two different proposals: the first, to the current (on the Beta site ...

With regards to the colors, since the connecting lines are yellow, maybe a different color for that continent that also happens to be yellow, (is that yellow too)? - the ones in China and India.

Connections are lime green, continent is yellow. I will mess around with it when I get a little time ...

To be completely honest I don't care for how the map plays but maybe that's because I lose on it. A bigger auto deploy is my suggestion. 1 troop don't help much when you gotta tackle a map of full of neutrals. It should be more like feudal or even city mogul lol
The difference is, in those, the ...

Starting positions would be harder to fix. I'm pretty sure the XML can take a small starting position and then give you multiples of it for less players. So you can make a 12-player start map and then it will assign somebody 2x that for the 6-player map. But there is no way to have a different ...

An idea: instead of coloring the thin outline of territories to indicate their continent (subtle, hard to differentiate for the colorblind), color the landmasses below them.

Thanks, not-purple.
