Map Dabble

chicago ,the font and the letters look blurry to me and or its just me and my eyesight maybe you could make a little nicer planes, these look simple to me, they can also pass if there are no better ones... pure color without these background squares would be better, wouldnt it? everything else is excellent from my point of view dragonport the ports can definitely be placed in better places due to both the maps vision and gameplay red on yelow territory or grey yelow on most visible territory redish maybe etc

chicago is really blurry yup. it didnt convert well from my paint program, i was looking at it in a magnified view and as soon as i posted it i noticed. im not happy with dragonport either after posting it. sometimes things look much better in the paint program than it does afterwards. ill try again when i get some motivation/inspiration.

changed the dragons around for more contrast between the crystals and land they are on. lessened the opacity of the trees, probably could get rid of them, as they are decoration. [spoiler][img]https://mapconquest.com/images/dabble/dragonmap.jpg[/img][/spoiler]

Hey Hood! Please, do you think you could make a playable map out of this? (I quote myself from another thread) [quote=The_Bishop]The last #3 idea is evolving into something like this: [spoiler=#3 Gulf Coast, U.S. (42-44 tert's)][img]https://i.ibb.co/rK64cCR3/Gulf-Coast-02.jpg[/img][/spoiler] Austin is intended to not belong to any region. Mexico maybe playing maybe not. 3 or 4 ports, I don't know yet...[/quote]

There is also a small slice of South Carolina included in the map, I would attach it to Georgia. This would compensate a piece of Georgia that I gifted to Alabama in order to fit the region lands with the actual river run. I think it is wiser (when we can) to cheat region borders rather than cheat river runs: political borders changes more often than how rivers change.

I liked also the Chicago city map idea (60 territories not great tho, maybe can be reduced to 56).

hoodlum, i have a question on some bonuses; they seem to be unequal. [img]https://i.imgur.com/86YbF4c.jpeg [/img] also, is it add additional bonuses for holding the big islands? maybe +2 for the two smaller ones in the north and east. +3 for the one north west, +4 for the one south west and +8 for the biggest one? it would fit so well with the island structure of the gameplay area and wont add too much complexity at all, bit at the same time enrich the gameplay when playing capped games. i also like the design & colors and the overall structure of the map. regarding design its better than nga toa and better than bulgaria. i would rank this first, then bulgaria and the nga toa. bishop will have a lot of work adding all the new maps....

i probably rank the gameplay of this one first compared to my other two maps. i like the connectivity. i can't remember if i changed the bonuses due to the change of gameplay (ports added), but im sure i just initially used the calculator https://dominating12.com/tools ill take a look. the map is already input into the system. i initially drew this up in 2020, forgot about it and then recently added the ports/theme as an after thought. i don't give much thought to extra bonuses, but i am coming to understand the reason they would be good for those slow capped games and why they feature in your maps.

after taking a look at the bonuses. the underlined blue questions are calculated fine. the reason the north one ★myler is only +1 is because there's only 2 territories to defend, whilst the others have to defend 3 territories. i did some cross referencing from our other maps as well as use the calculator. ★stayawae region is off. it should be higher as you suggest. but also found some others that should be increased to 4. as for the extra island bonus, im not sure how to calculate those, so ill just jot down your suggestions with that.

Didnt make It too complicated If its Not ñecessary
