Ok thanks KO.

That will be preclude me from playing either of those races, but I like the MA anyway.

*More musings on MA Man. I think i would have to take a sleeping Phoenix, for flaming arrows, arrow fend, or a sleeping ML with f4, for flaming arrows and a foot into d magic(and banefire), and pray i could get orb lightning before i got rushed).

As MA Mam you should take a N2W2 Bull and aim for bog beasts. Set dom to 3 and flat scales. If you start asleep you will probably get bog beasts when you wake up. Dump the rest of the points. Now we're kicking! It should not be impossible to get a good start with if you are neighboring four others. One of them is bound to be surprised when you attack him. If you go for two at once they will be even more surprised, both of them! Then it's just a cakewalk.

I will support the use of the T4 map for the reasons mentioned by Xietor. It looks quite balanced. Especially if it was a wrap around map.

GWAR · #6 April 24th, 2008, 11:12 PM

yeah, T4 seems to be the best of the 4 there, 1 question thou, are mountains passable in it?

Xietor · #7 April 24th, 2008, 11:55 PM

Mountains are not passable on my maps normally, but exceptions must be made if I can not get enough land starting spots with 4 adjacent provinces. Typically, I like 3 for water and 4 for land.

In Eh II, Dr. P made the map, and was unable to have the mountains block passage and get enough decent starting spots.

But I prefer the mountains to block passage. I also typically edit out all waste provinces, and give all provinces with a unique symbol the "many magic sites" tag. Such as a volcano.

I will know much more this weekend when i begin editing the map to add starting positions.
