NO. Graphics are horrible, your continents don't make sense, and it doesn't feel like the Internet.

Here's an idea of a map for the Internet, from the webcomic xkcd :

Just looking at the XML, The continent name AlliedSymbols should have a space And the HoldingCenter would now show : You got -1 armies for holding HoldingCenter. :/ I suggest to change that continent name to Mind Without Reason, or something similar.

And I don't like the white impassables at all ...

Please, please address this concern of mine, whether to change the bonus, or to justify the +3.

I read all 69 pages. Really. And I only have four things to say :

1. From what I know of any image editing program, blurring takes about 4-5 clicks at most. (maybe about 15 seconds?)
2. The debate about the border has gone on for at least 5 pages, I'm not gonna check how far back. (about 1-2 ...

It's not.

At the moment, XML allows this only :

- Territories : No changing territories (as in the territories moving around, dissapearing, etc.), no variable borders, etc.
-Attacking : Plain attacking. Full stop. No only attacking until a certain amountis left only, etc. etc.

Now that there's a one-way border at the hall... the bonus there needs to be changed. I think a +1 for great hall is enough. That would make it a +2 bonus, with 6 territories and 1 (one!) border.

+4 for one border is... :shock:

The great hall is currently a +4 for 4 territories and 3 borders. (including throne). A bit much :/ I think +2 for great hall was fine...

Dear god use some different program to make the map. It makes my eyes bleed.

That said, this could be an interesting map. You just need a lot of work on it. About a year's worth.

Each opposing set has to be entered independently, or else I'd be stacking bonuses (which I am really, but I don't want to give a bonus for holding the same opposing triangle pair twice).

I am told that by simply giving each bonus the same name, CC will lump the bonuses together. So if you are ...

He's mentioned many many times that you CAN attack diagonally :

Attacks will only take place on adjacent spaces, either vertically, horizontally or diagonally. I'll make this known on the next update.

Assuming you own all but one space, there are a few max bonuses : you could earn anywhere from +52 to +56, depending on which territory you don't own.

Could you post the XML? I know it's long but... I'd like to see it.

Each and every set of two bonuses may only share up to one space.

ABCDEFG has ABCD, BCDE, CDEF, DEFG. However, compare ABCD together with BCDE / CDEF. Both pairs share more than one common point, i.e.

ABCD - BCDE = BCD are shared.
ABCD - CDEF = CD are shared.

In that entire row, the only 4 ...
