I just threw the text on there quickly so that I could get this posted. I will probably modify it.

I know this map breaks from tradition since it doesn't have a different color for each region, but the map looked ridiculous with a different color for each region. I also decided not to go with a mini map but to put the region bonuses directly on the map. Please tell me if the map is understandable or not.

I thought about having a smaller region in the field but couldn't figure out how to do it and have it look good.

I made this map using the 3D software Google Sketchup. I borrowed from several people who had uploaded components to the Google 3D warehouse. Like the original stadium, the trees, and the landscaping.
I'll give full credit later.

I know I could make this better, but I spent way too much time on it already. I will make minor changes, but I will not be changing regions except for maybe breaking up the field.

I think that this will be the best 5p capitals map ever. It will be very balanced.

By result table, do you mean the scoreboard? That green place is grass that is why it is green.

I will wait to move forward on this map until a newer player comments on whether or not the map is understandable.

I tip my hat and give you two thumbs up at the same time, wait is that possible? Hell yes anything is possible after seeing this creation!!!!! The fountains the trees, who said a map can't have trees. Well now we need a new answer to that riddle I seen.

Is the only way to attack is through the Playing field? How does the ones attack ...no lines. Those are the question that I see if I was going to plan my moves that this map doesn't answer.
95.5% of the time you kill a players cap before your 2nd turn in... you fail or die next

they can attack side by side or up and down example:f2 can attack f5 or 64 can attack e3

i guess the most confusing thing is that E1 can attack D4. You can't really see that they are connected because the region separators make it hard to tell.

I don't know how to make it clearer without making the map really ugly. this was an incredibly difficult map to do because of having to balance beauty with ease of distinguishing connections and regions.

I guess that this will just be one of those maps that you will have to play once to learn or watch others play before you try.

I will try to not make another map where things are difficult to figure out.
