nah, i was thinking Galaxy Wars sounded better
oh well, wonder what happened to that space map we had around here once, that one was awesome

i understand i don't have to play it... but so far, both space maps have basically the same classic style gameplay with "wormholes" and "jump gates" to facilitate movement between bottlenecked dense areas of the map... i'm hoping you won't pull the same thing.
if i want another map that is extremely similar in looks, at least give me something different in gameplay... that is why the 3 aor maps are successful, why world 2.1, classic and doodle are all successful.... because they allow different kinds of strategy and gameplay into similar maps.
but what i see from you offers nothing to me

PS. if you don't get it... i'd like to see what you are going to do in terms of gameplay before i see a lame draft
and i think most of the foundry regulars would like the same

Welp, the first draft makes the gameplay look aweful. I just don't like the giant territories.
Also, I have BOTH versions of STAR WARS RISK, and neither map looks anything like that. I say you just rip-off those maps. That's what the people want.
And WHITESTAZN88, the Hasboro versions have no jump gates or worm holes. And they're fun.
ORDER 66!!!

sorry couldnt resist
i would comment on your map so far, except its SO DANG TINY
and try making it in GIMP, if you google Download Gimp for (insert whatever type of computer your using here), then you should find something, and if you look around theres a lot of good tutorials for making planets
edit: best way i can think of for a star wars map, would be one of the galaxy (you could use hyperspace routes and trade routes to get around) and zoomed in areas for some systems. That way theres no "wormholes" or "blackholes" of telportation

I could come up with names, I'm fairly good at myths and gods and ancient heroes etc. so give me a shout if you need it.

and i know a ton of stuff about star wars, and im pretty good at coming up with ideas of how things could be alternated
also, if your calling it "Galaxy" Conquest, but only have a handful of planets, then its not actual galaxy conquest, you have to have a galaxy

OK, everyone, if it makes you guys happier, I am completely abandoning the map.

Surely it would be better if it's galaxy conquest just to have stars with different habitability ratings to make the games less bottlenecked

Most recent comment was almost two weeks ago. Is this map still being worked on?

Yay for spam

Shall we merge this into the other 5,000 threads about star wars?

Or just stamp it "copyright violation" and lock it along with the others? (Unless there's a way to do it without copyright violation.)

you could easily do it without copyright violation, however, the board would have to be setup different, possibly move some territs around (not just rotate the board)

This map has been
moved into retirement.
It would appear that development of this map has stalled, as there have not been any updates for some time.
If the mapmaker wants to continue with the map, then one of the CAs will be able to help put the thread back into the Foundry system

Hey, i was thinking, and i've heard some other people say this too, that a star wars map would be cool. You could have the galaxy or individual planets as maps. Would this be a good idea?

somewhere there is a single thread for dumping all of the dozens of posts suggesting a Star Wars map. The idea is impossible due to copyright.
