Kingdom of Karan and Targa

In response to your question about the size of your next map Targa, I think it should be around the same size. 160-170 land provinces and 20-25 water provinces is plenty. With about 6 or 7 AI or opponents it plays great. These super big maps just get bogged down in my opinion. And I wasnt kidding about paying you for more maps in my earlier post.

I can tell you put a lot of work into them.

I would also vote for a larger map, either Orania-sized or larger. Once I get more involved in the game (I am still new to Dominions), I imagine I will like the very large maps like many of the others here.

About your previous work, I have downloaded the ones from Illwinter's map page and intend to play the Karan map a few times as my next target. Thanks for all of the hard work you have done.

Just wanted to add my thanks to Targa, the Kingdoms map is wonderful fun. The graphics are pretty. I showed the map to my wife who hates all things computer and she was impressed as well!

Despite not having played on the map till now I surely appreciate the effort you put into it, too

I hadn't checked the map page in a while, so didn't know your map existed until I read this thread!

Thank goodness I did, Kingdom of Karan is great. I love the connected waterways and the way terrain that looks like it hould cut off movement always does. I haven't actually played a game on it yet, but three pages of people can't be wrong about how it plays.

If you make another map, put me in the "Orania or larger" camp. I love epic maps, and Kingdom of Karga and a larger one in the same style are all the maps I'd really ever need...

I know I keep harping on this but "large" is such a variance. (personally I put my vote in for huge)

Karan is 162 land and 20 water.
with 17 players thats 10 independent provinces each. The game allows a "starting number of provinces" setting maxxed at 9 each

Orania is 259 land and 20 water
17 per land player, 10 per water

The maximum number of provinces is 500.
If 450 land and 50 water thats alittle more than 25 for each player before forcing war. So is 200-250 going to be considered a "large" map?
