maybe mentioned before, but Grigua and Orange Free State were swapped in the latest version (14.6) of the map

There are 2 Reggio's in Italy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reggio

Take your time.

Macedonia either...

I think this is cool, and in all simplicity quite different than all existing maps on CC. But I think Helix is trying to say that copyrights may be a problem, if it looks too much like commercial Risk editions.

The multiplication of bonuses and armies to even out bad dice could be a good general feature to add to the site, so that you could play any map like that.
That's a fair point, but I can't imagine it happening anytime soon.
Why don't you try? I have no idea how it works. Is there a forum for ...

actually wait... Ill take the madagascar map... and add in the age of merchant symbols... it will be a completely new fun unique map... jsut wait guys.
I am fond of sarcasm, using it more often myself than I should, but I think you are being too harsh here. This post is obviously generating ...

I think that a map of the Caucasus, and the Korean war would be great, but that map that you posted is way too bright and stuff. make the countries darker colors.
Sure, it's only a draft to show my ideas about the bonuses. Maybe I'll do a new draft some time, because this one seems too obnoxious ...

I see what you mean: National as referring to the ' nation' , the ethno-linguistic group as a whole, as in ' nationalist'. Political as referring to the current political situation. In my part of the world (Western Europe) however, nations (and nationalities) are synonym to countries, hence national ...

Nizhny (with a y) Novgorod ("Lower Newcity") was called Gorky from 1932, so not during the civil war.

More interesting than a map of Armenia would be a map of the entire Caucasus region, IMO. I did a draft here.

Korean war would be interesting too.

Looky here, a Russian on CC! Go and have a peek at the Stalingrad map in Final Forge. That thing has a whole bunch of mistakes that I told the mapmaker (the legendary Cairns) about but he won't correct them. Says he doesn't think many Russians visit this site. Prove him wrong!

I saw one here too ...

I like this, but that shouldn't come as a surprise to you, Comrade!

One small thing: I wouldn't crop Poland and the Baltics in the west. Looks a bit messy.
And I would do the high population territories in a different way than with that orange border, for example a darker shade of brown. Before ...

I've been watching this map for a while now, and I really think I'll enjoy the minimalist style it is employing.

Make it a project to add all countries to the site that don't have a map yet.

well if this is such a great Idea, we should take all 160 maps and create 320 maps, because we can use the "mogul anti-luck technique" on all maps.

As I wrote a week ago: make it a map feature, like fog of war etc., to use on all existing maps. That makes duplication of any map unnecessary.

The multiplication of bonuses and armies to even out bad dice could be a good general feature to add to the site, so that you could play any map like that.

I couldn't think of an unholier place than hell, but OK. I won't start a discussion on religious dogma now.
Good luck with finishing this. I hope you maintain sensitivity to constructive criticism. You may receive some more of it (don't worry: not from me).

'Congratulations' on the fall of your government today.

As a next door neighbour (Dutch), I am reading what this thing is about, after having heard bits and pieces in recent years. And hell, the whole BHV (Brussel-Halle-Vilvoorde) thing, THAT would make an excellent CC map! Way more interesting ...

Thanks for pulling me back into this (or else I don't understand who you mean with "you both" and "you guys"). I thought I was doing you a favour by pointing out some Russian spelling mistakes, mostly. But apparently I was wrong, which was already obvious from the fact that most mistakes are still ...

I'd say keep this one a simple small map. Enough projects with all kinds of complicated stuff going on already.

Whether Hitler did or did not order a breakout was not the issue. The question was which commanders should be on the map. That point has been made.

It's a whole different ball game. I must say I like the element of actually MEETING people.

theBastard wrote:why not go for commercial? it looks enough different from others table games...

Well, who knows...

also man i hafot clear this up. hitler did NOT want the 6th army to break out of stalingrad . ALL of hitlers commanders and generals begged hitler , including paulus, manstein, hoth and many others. Hitler ordered the remainder of the 4th panzer army(hoth) and wat was left of army group don ...

also , i only suggested manstein becuz i was thinking the hqs wer for fieldmarshalls only. if you decided to go with 2nd in command under paulus, then that is not rodenburg , he was the generalmajor of the 76th infantry division . parts of the 4th panzer army were in the city, herman hoth was ...

You obviously don't know what Axis & Allies is, I realized later, or else you would have instantly recognized it. It is a WWII board game. Basically Risk, a map with territories (land and sea), with lots of extra units (not just 'soldiers' or 'armies') and rules. Read and see more here: http://en ...
