This map has some special properties:
-Every territory has 3 borders
-One continent will have 5 borders, but a second adjacent one will raise that to 6, and a third will either keep it at 6 or raise it to 7
-There are a total of 20 territories, which means 2 neutral territories at most, and at any rate, the neutrals can be used to guard borders effectively
-All continents share borders, and every territory is part of 3 continents, furthermore, only 3 players at a time can hold a continent
-In 5 and 6 player games, no player can start off with a continent, and in 4 player games, the probability of a given player starting off with a continent is less than .08%
-Every territory can be reached by any other territory in 5 moves or less
The territories are named after letters of the Greek alphabet. This is because Plato himself was a Greek philosopher and mathematician. He theorized that the dodecahedron was the structure of the heavens, which is why there are stars in the background. Also, it's less boring then letters or numbers.
This could be a very good idea, or a horrible idea, I'm not sure. It wouldn't be a good map for team matches, but who would play a team match with 20 territories anyway? One thing's for sure... this map is different, and I think it would be fun. Thoughts?
