However, just from this one time, it seems to me that given that a neutral starts on the bombard territory, it will never actually get used. Few people use the bombard as it is and having to kill 3 neutrals just to neutralize a territory. I just dont think it will ever really enhance the game play considering 99.9 % of games probably wont use it.
I just hink it would enhance the game more if it started as a regular territory and not neutral. Later


Right, I've seen it used a couple of times, but not as often as I'd like. Thing is, if I pulled it as a neutral there'd be 37 territories to start with, so in any size game there will be one random territory starting neutral. If there's going ot be a neutral I'd rather see it start in Russia than in one of the other sectors where it would potentially give somebody an easy shield to hold the bonus.

As for the color comment... :roll:

maybe nobody cares, but I'd like to get it right... I've fixed the three spelling errors in both the maps and the code.

You could lower the neutral value of the tank?

played this map the first time today. And since i live in Berlin the spelling errors really hurt my eyes... is there any chance that they will be fixed? I mean the images and xml are already corrected here, aren't they?

The map looks pretty cool.

Still i found 3 typos in it:
It's Siemensstadt, Nikolassee and Neukölln, as opposed to Siemenstadt, Nikolasee and Neukölen.

Keep it up!

There seems to be a bug the map is granting the british bonus without you holding all of it.
