Default Re: map concept question

Yes Im pretty sure it is. But keep in mind that its not one-way. All of the provinces would also connect back. And it would cause a major lag in processing depending on how large a map you are planning this for. Not to mention, just picture someone clicking on the province with neighbor arrows turned on.

If you email me with your plans for the map maybe I can offer some alternatives.

Default Re: map concept question

good point about the neighbours graphics.

Wellt he idea really is to have a map that had a single province easily accessible from anywhere on the map. I guess this could be done by having portal provinces around the map.

Also I didn't know it had to be two way. I had a fuzzy memory of having to assign a neighbour 'each way' but that memory is clearly faulty .

The idea doesn't work so well with two way travel. ah well.

The idea was having a VP province as above that you had to hold to win. Extend the holding period more than usual and have to constantly stave off assault. was just an idea that popped in my head from the blood game thread. Seems like it won't really work though or wouldn't be all that different from other VP games.
