I've always liked the two older wolfsbane maps, Stonehaven and Shadowshore.

I did/do like that warhammer map, though. It looked fun. If people wouldn't mind a slightly bigger game, it would still work.

Nice work, thank Rej.

I reckon we only need 12 for the Warhammer map, and we are now up to 11 (with Pan's confirmation) with a possible 12th waiting on a PM. So there is still hope!

I do rather like Shadowshore, played one game on it that was quite fun (even though I ended up in that tiny peninsula in the north with the player most likely to shiv me for the fun of it!).

Blackwald (also by wolfsbane) could also work, given that we've got two water nations and it has 132 land and 39 sea (with 32 being in the two main oceans, and the other 7 scattered in lakes):

EDIT: Stonehaven is really neat! Thanks for posting that, I hadn't noticed it before :-)

argh, I don't like the new wolfsbane maps. The textures look really ugly compared to the real world leather map-likeness of the others. But then I dislike satellite imagery as well and everyone else seems to go completely nuts for it so eh.

I was in the last game and I'd like to reassure everyone that we have a *pair* of admins (in different time zones) who will, I am sure, do another great job of keeping the game alive.

We don't want slow turns but real life won't wait so sometimes the game has to (staled turns being worse than pauses).

Welcome, Sir Ninja! This gives us 12, so we can stay on the Warhammer map - yay!

So the turn interval is 36H for starters? Maybe the very first turn should have longer, though. Say 48 or even 60? 12 is quite a few players, so every1 can get accustomated in time.

We'll do a restart, but after that the first turn will be 48 hours for the first turn and 30 hours every turn after that until the game slows down and we go to 48 hours.

Are you willing to accept another player if you restart? I'd like to join as Mictlan.
