The idea with this map is that even if Black Hole or Green Earth is destroyed, their respective team can still have a chance at
pushing the enemy back and achieving victory.

Why does Blue Moon start with 4 cities/bases while Green Earth gets 3 essentially useless airports off the bat in addition to Orange star geting 4 bases + 2 cities.

Faction balance is wack is OS gets 5 base, GE doesnt really have a way to stop themselves from getting overrun with AA from BH.

Blue Moons kinda in the hole since they dont have any good way to defend or repair after any engagement and runs into Money issue as all their nearby cities only amount to like 12k

My idea was that Blue Moon would mostly focus on sea stuff while still having enough Factories to defend themself, while
Orange Star is the primary ground force for the southern allies. As you can probably guess, Green Earth is the designated
Air Force of the allies.

You do have a point on the state of BM's economy, although the countries being out of whack was intentional. I like really
like themed players on team maps for some reason. GE's Airports aren't all meant to produce units every turn. They have
that many for healing/refueling since it's such a big map.

I'm still doing the first playtest of this map, and by what I've seen in it thus far, if Black Hole focuses too heavily on
countering GE, they suffer against OS, leaving them to play around their Forests pretty heavily. Also, it feels like OS has
access to too many Factories, making swarms of Infantry flood the land. I think just 1 fewer Factory would be enough there,
but we'll see.

So far my plan is to give BM some extra income, or maybe just take away from everyone else's income by a little bit. Also,
I'm pretty sure I should ban global damage COs from now on, too. They mess with balance way too much on big maps like
this. I miss when Drake was the only global damage CO, and he only did 1 damage each time.

Oof, I need to get around to balancing this map... Maybe someday.
