i think its a really good idea, but yh cannons is a better name, only thing is i didn't know they were cannons when i 1st looked at them, that was the last thing i thought it was and i dont think they look like them at all even when i read the rules and knew they are

I just realized I forgot to name the catapults, archers, and knights.... they will each get a letter.

So that you can attack the wall, and then go in with your army.
Maybe it should start with 10 and re-spawn to like 5?

Much better!
But I think I'll sit this discussion out for a bit. I don't really have any ideas/comments one way or the other. Looks like it has to be played before anyone can say if it's on track or not.
If I were to scale my enthusiasm for you, I'd give it a 6.5
Just have to see were this discussion goes, I suppose...

There are only 24 starting territories - in an 8p game, there's a good chance someone will be eliminated in round 1, especially in a speed assassin game because all BF Knights can attack each other. Is there any way you can increase the number of starters?

This looks really good and it does have lots of potential.
The gameplay appears unique but i have not been able to look at the current maps cause there are so many.
this are a bit nitpicky but i don't have a clue about balance or gameplay aspects
1.across is spelled wrong in title
2.I also didn't know where the kings where before i realized they were off the map. kind of confusing
3.You call them cannons once and catapults another time. consistency is nice.
Gameplay
1.At first glance i didn't realize it was made for 8 players. It seems way to small for that like was stated above.
2. maybe some more detail in the battlefield. more intricate workings like a classicly styled map
3. the title is battlefield and the battlefield in this game does not seem like an integral part of the map.
4. More territories in the battlefield would help out a ton. each player only starting with 3 territories with 21 enemy borders would not work out in any 8 player game. I would like this map better with half the stuff. make it for 4 players. or maybe 6. Just because 8 players is an option doesn't mean you have to work a map to suit that.
thats all i have. Potentially good and it looks pretty

1) will be fixed
2)Ill think of something for that...
3)they were cannons first...

ill change that
1)?
2)?
3)I think its pretty important, you start there. Plus, its gonna be pretty crazy in there
4)Im thinking of having all knights as starting spots rather than just those in the Battlefield.
Thanks for the comments...im running low on those

Instead of having all the battlefield knights being the starters why not give everyone a king and nothing else so that they have to build their own army then go out and fight, also completely eliminates the chance of being eliminated on the first turn.

It looks really nice! Nothing I can really say in the form of consturctional critisism.
Looking forward to seeing this get Quenched someday.

THis just makes another conquest map, which has been done so many times, and i dont want to do. I figured it would be fun to try something new, kind of like backwords conquest.

Don't you still have the too-few start positions problem?

Well not really, its all Knights now. Everyone starts with 6 territories, and some Knights are hard to get to.
