Just a little idea about a small ideal map...

There are several new big maps coming that I got in the mood to do something small, I like to think different!! ;)
Still some graphic issues to fix but more or less it is this:

I feel like I have created a little monster, but perhaps people like more traditional game-play, I don't know...

As for the graphics, I think this can be called an improvement:

Redone the outlines with Hoodlum's technique and the sea routes as well.
Made the colours brighter also

Reminder to myself. I liked the colors better as they were before, and the new outlines are cleaner (fine) but I could have made them thinner.

Okay no problem, I'm busy today but I'll definitely do it tomorrow.

bishop, get a 3d version of the map and use it instead of this flad 2d one. it will be smthing very new & cool in terms of design and will make the map more interesting. jist pick the one you like most, but better take a one with neutral colors, and draw your regions on it and paint it.

currently i am working on a small map with a 3d looking landscape, but it will take some time to finish, so i cant post it.

Well, I dunno... I mean, 3D gadgets are cool, but then it will not be a map anymore. I'd like better to stay flat with this one.

Hello everyone, I would call this map a failed experiment and discontinue it.

why?

just update the design/grafics, they dont look good; just other colors and background and it will be ok. But gameplay-wise, i think its a normal small map.

regarding bonuses: +1 for one section is maybe not enough. one section has 7 territories out of these are 2 border territories. I would make them at least +3 or maybe +4.

do you have the outlay? just the map with region and territory borders/lines, but without any coloring? if so, post it here.

Nope sorry, I don't have it here, I'm in vacation in Belgium.
Gameplay wise: when you hold one section you ensure that your opponent cannot hold any easy "triple".

I would suggest: take it as is or throw it away, it is not much important for me.
(I would prefer to improve Boston -- NYC graphics, if I can)
