Default New blitz map: Clash of the Titans [deleted!]

I've deleted this map, since there is an upgraded version with a new name.

You can find it here:

Very good MP map. Almost a chessboard fairness feel. It should go over well.

Gandalf, one day I will make some huge map for PBEM games, also I know that you prefer those kind of maps.

*Edit* I've removed the attachment, what contained the v1.02 .map file, since a new version is out. [v1.03]



Yet another .map version is out: v1.02
I've removed the post what contained the v1.01 .map file.

v1.02 update: The province in the middle of the map -the one with the lake- has been updated. The population of the province is very high now, but it is defended by a stronger independent army.

Actually Im (very slowly) messing around with that. Im trying to get a decent maximum map with the color scheme I like.

Im happy with the colors but it takes a long time to generate the maps. 2 to 3 hours each. And the light blue lines in the waters are a rare occurance. But eventually I will get one I like and start playing mega games on it to catch all the neighbor errors.

What I plan is to offer it as a map for huge mega games (all human players of an era, and all else AI for a total of 79 players)

If each player starts in a corner then one player has an advantage by having three connecting provinces instead of two.
Otherwise it's a great two or four person map.

Yep, however it is still balanced, since 2 out of those 3 are small provinces. [low income & resources]
