The Farm/Barnyard (Version 1-2)

This is the current info on the map:
Continents: 8
Territories: 39
The tractor starts off neutral, say 5 neutrals... But if you control the tractor, you can attack any brown spot since the tractor can drive around...
And vice versa, any brown spot can attack the tractor. The tractor gives an auto-deploy +2 at the start of each turn.
My latest map created:
Original idea: I have no clue if this has been suggested before, but I couldn't find anything about it when I searched for it. But my idea is to create a map of the
farm, now this might sound rather blah I admit, but it has some potential I think.
Just some ideas to throw out there of what this map could consist of... You have your fields, and a combine to harvest the bonus... Or you could just have the fields and get a bonus, but if you also control the combine, than the bonus is +1 or +2 greater. You can also have your livestock, barn, and farmhouse... Stuff like that, but I open to ideas or critiques of my idea.
First picture made 01/23/09- Very rough draftish

sounds like a great idea - but very hard to tell whether it is a map or not without even basic graphics :S

Yeah, I'll try working out something simple to give everyone an idea of what I'm picturing... Though I will admit, I probably won't be the best at making maps, I at least want to try, but if I fail I'll pass it on to someone if needed...

I say go for it! I like the concept and if you create a reasonable draft this idea just might work...

It's pretty much ready to be quenched.

Anyway, I'd like to see this go further. It's a good idea — if you can't do the GFX try to get someone else to get it, I like your layout.

Would be great if the map was drawn to look like a real farmyard...

lol, I wish
Ok, well it looks like I've gotten a decent amount of support, so I'll try pulling something together... We will see how that goes, don't expect the best though.

Start fiddling with getting territories and the attack routes worked out... I am open to suggestions for changes on these!

If you polish up the draft a little this could get moved... and i recommended calling it Barnyard and having the path territs be "path 1, 2 ,3 " or "Driveway 1, 2, 3"

Well all around the road, and maybe all the fields and pastures... But I don't know if it has access to the attic
What do others think what the tractors attack routes should be?

i don't think you're allowed to make drafts with paint, but the idea looks decent....

It isn't really a draft, just an idea put out there so that people understand what I'm thinking in a picture...

I think you need to make a real draft for this map to move any further...
