Tic Tac Toe (noughts and crosses)

OK, in light of the apparent interest in a tiny luck-oriented map I thought I'd come up with a tiny, less luck-oriented map. It'd be impossible to win on the first round (because you'd only get an initial drop of two territories in any size game), and while a player may be eliminated early in a six player game, you take the same chance playing a six player doodle earth game.
yeah, I know it's a mess and I've even left the "y" off of "horizontally" but you get the idea.
Territory count: 9 (eight to start)
Potential bonus regions: 8
Special features: center square starts neutral
Recommended players: 2-3

actually in 5p and 6p games you get just 1 terit not 2.
and it can end in round 1. imagine a 6p assassin game where your target is next to you and you go first. simply attack 6v3 and win
PS: go for it.

Right, I meant to say a max of two terits. And anybody who plays a five or six player assassin game on a nine territory map deserves to lose those points.

This is an interesting gray area. Not sure about this one.
If you gave us 3-d tick tack toe, or 3-d connect 4 instead I'd be more interested and it would probably be a better map.

The idea is there, but it's too small.
If you want to go down this path, bring that connect 4 map back to life.

For once - I agree with Spockers...
Bring back Connect 4 (Conquer 4)...
The XML is already done for you!!! (Although if you're interested I may rewrite it with the new collections code)!!
