New Map

Hey folks... throw me a bone!

I know a bunch of you have the new scenario.
What I want is a tiny shard of feedback.

It doesn't have to be much, just someting like:

"This scenario did nothing for me"
or
"It was interesting, hope to see more"

Give me a clue as to what the community is looking for.

For those that want to check it out, you can get it on Sunrays site (no need for emails anymore) http://www.freewebs.com/sunray_dom2/

What is this map? I am playing with Gandalf's map and it is pretty cool.

Gandalf's map is pretty cool. I've enjoyed it myself. The chaos is fun.

My scenario is a seven nation game where each nation starts with 10 provinces, temples, forts, armies, and some spells. Effectively it begins with players in control of a small "kingdom" rather than a province.

The question is, does anyone like such a scenario or am I wasting my time?

Ahhh rats. THATS where I got the idea for the "AI fixing map". Sorry about that. Should I kill that thread and let you pursue it? How about the other ideas for "fixing" the AI using .map settings?

People dont understand how to "pay" for free things they like so they will see more like it.

I'm downloading it. Thank for the effort Alex.

Nah, any work is good work.

My scenario isn't exactly "AI fixing", although it does play out different than normal.

I've considered making a Version that forces a player to play through a set nation, and that way I can pump the computer nations, but I don't know if there is even a shred of interest in such a thing. I was hoping to get some input on the first scenario before branching out.

I'd guess there's always interest in challenging maps or senerios. My only qualm is that saying that these maps 'fix the AI' is entirely misleading. They provide an additional challenge to the player, but they do not overtly 'fix the AI'.

See my other post in Gandalfs theard for more on this issue, and why it bothers me
