Description

A Fictional map in which 6 land masses are present. This is also the first official map created by semicedevine.

In this map, players can choose from a range of strategic solutions to solve problems that may arise throughout gameplay. The map itself looks quite simple, colorful, and creative, yet there are many different ways to win on this map.

Notice that the North Allegiance income bonus is "Superior" while the South Union income bonus is "Inferior". This is because if all of the northern territories are captured, they will give a greater income bonus of 1 more than if all of the southern territories are captured.

Faultland is the 6th land mass and consists of two territories and an income bonus of just 2 armies. However, if a player owns both mainland Sotalia or Custralia and Faultland, they will receive 4 more income bonus. This makes Faultland a strategic region to conquer for Sotalia and Custralia.

Review by Krulle on 4/23/2014.
Great map, yet I fully agree with Nathan. Once either one has northern or southern Union bonus, the game is decided.
Response by map creator Semicedevine on 4/24/2014
Acutually, conquering the northern or southern side is just one of the several strategies that can be used on this map. I gave the game large bonuses, so a player can attack another to prevent the other from taking a whole bonus. I gave Garia a high income because it is more likely for more players to attack it than any other island.

This game presents the strategy of attacking another player to specifically lower income, and the strategy of keeping and defending at least one territory that is part of a larger bonus that another player has mostly claimed.

"If one player takes over the northern side, than why don't the other players get smart and attack that one player to take away the income? (this applies to humans, not AIs)"

Although I do agree that I may have accidentally given this map too big of a bonus income...

Review by Nathan on 4/22/2014.
Great map. My only issue is that the North-south bonuses are way too big. I jumped from an income of 18 to 49 in one turn. It's a huge imbalance.
Response by map creator Semicedevine on 4/25/2014
Yeah, your're right. I changed the bonus from 15 to 5 in the new version that I've uploaded. I should help to make the map more fair.

Also, part of the reason for the 18 to 49 income jump might be because you took over a territory that contributed to many different income bonuses which gave you a large income boost (Example: Garia Central belongs the South Garia, Garia, and the North Bonuses) I can't really help out with this though, this is more of a strategy instead of an issue.

IMPOSSIBLE INTERVENTION CHALLENGE review
I don't know why it sent me here for similar map "CENTRALIZE".
However...
Another really stupid, stupid, stupid map based on luck, that is only a long waste of time.

To be honest I'm not sure what I did different to be successful but with the benefit of blockades it can be done

The randomization makes the single player scenario frustrating rather than a fun puzzle.

This review is not for the original configuration, but instead for the solo-play configuration (which some have already reviewed as f***ing impossible. Regarding the possibility I would have to disagree since I have now overcome it several times and now reached gold star status (i.e. in winning in 14 turns or less). The key for those who are still having difficulty is to really use your blockade cards to your best advantage by never allowing either adversary to gain their 1000-strong bonus at any time by using your amazing 12-to-1 blockade cards and to thereafter very carefully allocate your allotted 100 to its maximum advantage. Don't lose heart. It is possible. Good luck! :)

I finally was able to beat this level. In order to win, you have to be very clever with the blockade cards and you have to make the AI attack with his 1000+ armies one of your blocked territories, so that he looses most of his armies

Review by Erzherzog on 7/21/2020.
small and simple.
nice for 2 teams/players or a certain scenario. the map is variable but not very equal. so a FFA with many players might be decided by luck.

Terrible game play, 99.9% fail rate I suspect from this map. No strategy other than survive as long as is possible.

Review by Mike Panek on 8/6/2020.
I have won over 100 levels (15 stars) and skipped 21, so I am ~80% through the "play" maps. This is another of the many "computer controlled" games where (due to the map author's lack of creativity; in this case) hundreds of armies MYSTERIOUSLY fill an attacking territory. I much appreciate the maps where raw skill/strategy are required as opposed to these kinds of maps where the algorithm decides when you win.

Absolute garbage setup. Never last more than three turns. Waste of time and effort. Needs a skip button.

Impossible is in the name, plus it won't let me skip to the next one. How is it fair I get 69 armies to two enemies over 1000 armies each.

An amazing, colorful, and bright map. Although the map is very simple, the map allows for players to choose a variety of strategies to use against others during gameplay.
