Earths Core

Post by samuelc812 »

Just an idea ;)

A Map of the earths core, where you could start from a country on the surface and make your way to the core or something. has this ever been thought of?? Maybe it could be a bit like Circus Maximus??

The Main problem that I see is that the Earth Core is an sphere, and maps are 3D. But maybe there could be a way to make a proper 2D representation.

You say "making your way to the core". This suggests to me that you start as one of the main countries (US, UK, Russia, China, Japan...) at the surface and then start conquering lower levels full of neutrals in your way to the core. The core would have a lot of neutrals, and would be the map objective. So the first expedition to get there arrives. Is more like a race. Isn't it?

There are other games in which you can win more than 1 way, Feudal War if you hold all the castles you win, and i think it is the same with AoR...correct me if i am wrong, maybe this map could be the same, eliminate evryone as for any map or hold the core for 1 round ;)

It might play like the New World map start from a homeland and each homeland is connected to a tectonic plate and then they work there way round :? Just an idea ;)
