Agreed, was gonna pop in to mention, and the orange is still particularly blended in with the new version as well.Bruceswar wrote:Bruceswar wrote:The green, orange and pink are still very hard to read if you ask me.
Anybody else?

I've made some additional changes to address the bridges and the killer neutral. I'm taking the neutral start off the Walt Whitman, and the Tacony-Palmayra Bridges. The Betsy Ross and Ben Franklin will remain neutral to start, but only at 1. The killer neutral will be dropped to just 2.
I would have taken all the neutrals off, save the killer, but if I did that the territory count pool would be at 46 which is a bad split for 2 and 3 player games. (15 territories)
Should the current colors continue to make issues, I'll look to add army circles/ovals.

Huh? Pennypack and Penn's Landing don't connect, same with Fox Chase and Pennsport. And Tacony and Holmsburg DO connect. You need to defend both Fox Chase and Tacony to hold the NE. And you'd have to defend Fox Chase, Wissinoming, AND Tacony to hold +5 for both the NE and Frankford.JustCallMeStupid wrote:First game on this map and I dont understand the river connections graphically speaking from Pennypack to Penns landing in the teal area. I mean the territories arent even connected and it doesnt make sense to me logically and confuses me. Same thing with Foxchase to Pennsport the graphic of the river part makes it confusing to me.
Now I am not sure how geographically correct the map is supposed to be but the border and bonus structure could be modified for balance issues. If the bridge from tacony was instead connected to Holmesburg it would make the NE bonus a little bit harder to hold and when trying to expand from that NE bonus area one would have to leave behind defenses on Holmesburg. Currently one can advance all to Tacony and still hold NE bonus. Then they can eventually take Frankford bonus area and easily defend it with only 3 borders AND 2 of the borders defend each other, Tacony and Wissinoming.
The map looks pretty cool. I must say it is a little bit confusing and intimidating at first. Hopefully that top suggestion makes it less confusing.

I know the map is out of Beta mode, but it seems those are some glitches that made it into the code unnoticed. I did a quick search and it doesn't seem like that problem was raised before. Just thought I'd share my findings.

Maps can't have special trench features. The only exception to trench is that you can attack through killer neutrals.oradej wrote:Sooounds good haha. Like I said, I don't know anything about the mapmaking process, just figured because the Trench feature was working on every other territory/map I'm playing right now, it was specific to those regions on the Philly map.

I...can see it on both sides?BigBallinStalin wrote:It's odd that the map doesn't explain the underdog feature.
