I know the reference, and yet I've never listened to the song. (I may if I have time or willingness (When I'm old (maybe dying))) -J.B.M. (The "B" stands for "the Bucket's outa feet range") |

Haha I actually listened to the song before I knew that everybody had heard it. My cousin had the album and I put all the music on my computer and then realized much later that everybody knew about it haha. |

So it only takes 8 comments for you to advertise one of your maps :P I only ever drop Western Shootout as an example of what a bad map looks like. Plus it's a good origin story. -J.H.M. (The "H" stands for "oh Hey, I name dropped western Shootout") |

Your sample pool is limited. The data isn't representative. I've been acquitted of all charges. Can't touch this. (Also, technically you're the one who name dropped my map.. I just drew attention to it :P ) |

Just tried it out with a friend. It's a pretty good time if each person gets a corner. We both managed to secure one and ended up majorly brawling it out in the middle and on the high seas. |

My concern here is that things will easily become one sided once a player gains an advantage. Basically, all a player has to do is push the other player back a few spaces from the diagonal center-line and they'll get everything they need to win. In an ideal situation, there's more give and take, so that you can make a good comeback if you plan well. You can see from your game how it was impossible to compete once the corner islands were lost. In general, it's hard to make island maps work because of this principle combined with the fact that any island you own can easily be protected by lining the shoals/ports with infantry. As a result you either end up with a single maneuver costing the game, or a stalemate heavy game where neither player can effectively advance and gain ground/funding. My advice in a situation like this is to make the center the primary area of (land) combat. Make the HQ and corner islands smaller with less funding and let players land in the middle, have a land battle over the bulk of the funding, and use navy to support the land battle with bships and/or gain control over the corner islands. |

Oh shoot. I guess there's a map up there.... -J.W.M. (The "W" stands for "Whoops") |
