Good point with regard to the skill vs drop issue. The same could be said for Galapagos or New World maps (though I acknowledge your point with respect to the battle focus of the Pelopennesian War map). I don't really see the argument with regards to the benefits of its geography considering the warriors many of us are choosing to represent. Nonetheless, if people want that map, I would certainly go along.cowboyz wrote:That's great 1v1 map, there are few tournaments already using it for 1v1 games. Also Euro Centric is good, considering it's at the center of the world and most all famous war groups can somehow be connected to Europe. It also has famous battle sites marked on the map. Also takes a bit of skill instead of just random luck of the drop.skepticCS wrote:I think Pelopennesian War would not fit 1v1, although its a great map. Plus, it's too damn Euro-centriccowboyz wrote:I would like to be Charlie...king of the Viet Cong.
Also how bout changing the map...standard map doesn't really fit the theme of the tournament. Since we are warriors fighting battles to see who is the deadliest...Peloponnesian War seems a bit more fitting. Sunny, esc, unlimited?
What ya think?.
Because in the first post he said map was open to changeOutSider wrote:Stick with the map and settings that were posted in the first post. If people don't like them, why did they join this??????

That sounds coolIkickauassagood wrote:OutSider, GrimReaper, cowboyz, harvmax, skepticCS, anthroguy, carl2216, coacheberhardt, and topper are all in. Sorry gawdofwar, you were just a little too late.
For the map we could do something based off your warrior. So two "home" games and two away then one random. We have the players now so over the next couple days we can decide as a group which maps to play. As for the settings Unlimited and Chained are unrepresentative of what an actual battle between two warriors would be like. As for Escalating I think that Flat Rate better represents the practiced skill and wisdom of a great warrior. However, if you all feel otherwise we can make it Escalating.


vote?Ikickauassagood wrote:All good points. We can change it to sequential, no cards. I think the settings will be constant across all games.
As for the official map I think we should use something simple that represents no part of our world but is still a battlefield like Castle Lands or some such.

Sure. The tournament is full now and we should get this show on the road.Ikickauassagood wrote:I don't think home maps will work considering that there are three warriors from greece and several native american warriors. Another alternative would be to play five totally random maps. Personally I think this will work best and gives noone the oppurtunity to practice up on the specific maps.
So random maps, 1v1, sequential, sunny, no cards, adjacent.
I will prevent the maps from being Solar System or Chinese Checkers so that all the games will take place in real battlefields or territories that our warriors have fought on.
This work for everyone?
