Yeah sounds like a good idea. I say go for it. You can connect some of the sea provinces, but leave others closed off. Lakes in the middle of land not connected to anything can have interesting chalenges with them as well.

I can understand the rationale for linking up the sea provinces, but bear in mind that the sea nations already have very high mobility on this map. I'd leave at least some provinces as lakes.

Hmm, i don't like that idea one little bit, water nations already have a big advantage, besides, what's wrong with multiple seas?

Yeah, the seas and lakes should be seperate, makes for interesting strategy and some possibility of non water nations having some lakes or bits of ocean.

Also in maps with more than one ocean it allows for the water nations to sometimes have separate areas and not neccesarilty be in close ocmpetition in the begginning for the same set of provinces.

Sorry I've been wanting to get this thing on the road since last night, but I've been locked out of the forum all day today (has anyone else seen this bizarre behaviour? - the web page just shows a bunch of sql errors...)

Anyhow, we've been waiting for more than a day now on:

Sauromatia - imororg


I'll PM him just after writing this post, but if we don't hear back from him before tonight is out, I'll be happy to fill w/ someone out of our reserve list (or just about any player who can get his turns in, for that matter).

Come hell or high water I would really like to see this show on the road by tomorrow morning, PST.

- Terrel

Considering how horribly bad the water nations are at going above ground in EA it would just destroy a water nation to end up in a small section of the water

I'd like to sub for sauromania if none of the other subs are immediately available.
