Default Re: map suggestions?


I like Parganos, albeit some people feel it has too much terrain and not enough gold. ( I feel it balances out and makes for a different kind of game; Cradle of Dominion (the other map by the same guy ) is even more so. ) I'm also not sure if Parganos was ever updated on the download sites to have some provinces #nostarted that needed it.

Yalun-To? *shudder* Between the bottle neck, and the northern part being totally cut off....

Zen's Europe might be a good one for you to try - can't remember the provinces, and whether it'd be good for 6 or not.

Other than that, there's still something of a void for medium-small maps, I think (ones from 80 to 120 provinces).

You can find a fixed Version of Yalun-Tu when I played it. It includes a change of connecting the north to the south by province 60. It also fixes a bunch of the nostart positioning and adds a little more population since a good portion of the map is mountain/desert.

It is actually pretty fun for 5ish people as long as you understand there is alot of water, everywhere and can be prepared for it.

Try the attatchment to try it out.

As for 6 players, 6 players can play my Europe map and have themselves a good ol' fashioned war, but you might want a few more (9-12 is pretty good). The map I think has 120ish provinces and most maps you want to try to find a happy medium of players/province ratio and 10/15 is pretty good. Depending on the starting conditions and provinces in order to get wars started asap
