New Map Idea

Post by Winnebago »

There should be a map that has no bonuses of any type, as that doesn’t really make much historical sense.

Instead, every territory would automatically generate 1 or more troops per turn (desert might generate 1, the Nile might generate 2 or more, sea spots might generate none, etc). You could reinforce as much as you like, of course.

Every territory could have a peak number of troops that could end a turn in it at a time, same as before. Instead of warring “hordes of doom” that wear each other down, you could have actual war, with planned-out campaigns and decisive victories, instead of massive hordes, suicides, and constant attempts to break enemy bonuses.

Actual map concepts: North Sea and surrounding land, connect-the-dots (making pictures=bonus), and Mars with Oceans.

I suggest Mars With Oceans because it would give geographically interesting maps (which is hard) without looking artificial.

interesting concept...if you play the game without spoils thought it may take about as long to finish as monopoly depending on the size.
