I am surprised that no one has taken the name "Ring Around the Rosies" for a map name =)

I beleive Sami, Sturm, and Max are broken on this map.

The current FTA counter is BM has 2 infantry and one city next to PL's base. I think this
should work ok; BM gets $2000 extra money and PL gets one more infantry (since there
are an odd number of bases). However, if someone has a suggestion for a better FTA
counter on a 5 base per person map, let me know.

Oops! I gave the FTA counter to the wrong player. I will fix it as soon as I am finnished
playing my match on this map.

Problem solved. PL gets FTA counter of the 2 infantry and one city: NOT BM.

Yeah .. these mixed up bases are good fun and tend to destabilise and probly prevent much
defensive standoff.
The very useable lake seems quite original in this mixed context.....should become pretty
important as the game develops....with some awkward choices to be made at that
point.........which is good!
Looks like there may be too many units...a lot of clicking..... after a while...but
hopefully the
mix will ensure that battle destruction can keep unit numbers down.

edit.. yes , theres plenty of battle keeping unit numbers down.. GREAT MAP, and quite
original i think

The 2 counter infantry i believe might be better spread out .. not so close together so
that a player doesnt get a head start in that sector (and the other in the opposite
sector)...which is not exactly a point of balance... more just aesthetic imo... and it
might be more balanced too in long run but hard to prove.
