This map looks suitable for 1v1, if anyone could come up with a good template on it.

if no one suggests any templates i guess we can redo what was played 3 years ago:

I already suggested a template. I will re-link it.

It's Strategic Yin'angzhou The map is fairly different and the settings are more or less strategic. I've already had a bunch of people test it as well like MOTD, MOD, Potato and some others.

Also the amount of territories is almost the same as the ME map, but instead of being spread out like ME they are clumped together so it makes for quick brawls.

i kinda like that^

You referring to mine or Ps's suggestion?

Gustave II: can you post link to a game under that template? it's easier to analyze an actual game played then the template settings.

Your template Gustave but yea seeing a game on it might help.

Not sure if this is the best example as i played poorly in this one i won but still played poorly maybe i picked poorly as well :P idk

i prefered it on wr but i think it's ok

Motd told me to put it SR as well as a couple of others didn't like the WR. Personally I like the WR as well though so IDK we could change it real quick to WR if you wish.

PS decides. and i think he prefers sr

a couple unbalanced bonuses, a 4 territories for 2 income in the center, and a 3 territories for 1 income a bit to the east. i would fix those, apart from that it looks ok and i think we should use it for this week. would prefer it 0% SR yes. :)

EDIT- also the two +3's in the south should probably be +4.

You don't like the unbalance? Lol i did that on purpose :P

You don't like the unbalance? Lol i did that on purpose :P

don't see any benefits in having them unbalanced when there already are wastelands

it's still playable, just people won't be using those parts of the map as much.

I prefer the map being balanced as well. I like WR but I can deal with SR if that's what everyone wants.

Another game on the map.
The bonuses in the south would be way too op because of their single border protection. I think the map should stay as is. I have already tried many games on it and most everybody likes the template as is. Some even liked it better with WR. Because of the extra armies per territory plus cards you already get bunches of armies anyway. No need to balance the bonuses any more. If you don't want to use the template then don't use it, but I really don't think balancing the template helps at all.

i agree that the southern bonuses would be too strong if they were equal on value. they are too easy to defend. i think this template is good tought trough.

i tend to agree that map border territories shouldn't be as good, because they are usually safer, you do realize there are boat connections between the river though, right?

by the same logic the +2 on the west should be toned down aswell.
