They are not too low, remember that they are highly strategic places, you can attack all the kings with them, therefore there is no point for a high bonus.,,and by the way, lose the kids.

they are funny but if people want them that much why not implement hem or another picture small in the back round so that they don't play such a huge role in the backround

Very interesting map indeed! It's going to be a great deal of fun to play. I think the bonuses are good right now (although, perhaps purple could provide a bonus of 4) and I think the kids add a certain air of innocence to the map. They go nicely with the idea of little coloured building-block shapes.

wow I was completely joking about the kids! I for one hope they're NOT going to be on the map. I know it looks funny as hell, but I'm not sure if I could stop laughing while I was playing this map with them kids on it.

that little girl is winking! what a hussy!! that picture cracks me up! :lol:

I think the kids should stay. It just makes a different feel about it.
More colour, perhaps?

Well Widow, now you've gone and done it.
More discussion about the map means that it's that much longer until it's quenched.
But you can't keep the kids because of copyright issues, right?

This is ridiculous. Please just do what Andy says and then we can play the map hopefully. :roll:

I agree, this is rediculous, I don't want to fight battles in front of kids, I feel bad enough desimating these players. In front of kids... that's just too hard, lol

ok, there's my vote

WidowMakers · Post by **WidowMakers** » Sun Mar 11, 2007 2:16 pm

Everyone. It was just a joke. I don't an the kids either. I was trying to be funny and let everyone have a laugh. Besides the picture of those kids I found on google. It is a owned by someone else. I CANNOT USE IT!

Andy, the previous pictures are the most recent. I do not want the kids. So nothing has changed here is the map.

If you could be so kind, add the coordinates.

We are getting near the end.

I wonder why you have the "H" (for Helipads) symbol next to the phrase "Kings cannot attack other Kings or Helipads!"

Beacuse it explains what the "H" is. It explains how helipads work and that Kings cannot attack back to them.

However, the "H" is next to the word Kings instead of the word Helipads. This could be confusing.

I'm sure most people will read the whole note & it will all make perfect sense... won't they???

I really liked old name, "King of the Hill". It has much more meaning then "King of the Mountain". When it was proposed to change to "king of the Mountain" the intention was to add some real mountains and countries (like Himalayas and Nepal). For the abstract map, as this one is, "King Of the Hill" sounds more appropriate. It is just my feeling.

The "H" is big enough that not many people will think that it is next to just one line. It seems clear that all three lines address the "H"

Not when there are 5 territories that have the word "king" in the name.

All of these things have been done for weeks. The King of the hills went away Jan 15th. And the "H" with text has never caused any confusion until now. Players are to read a map. The text is plain, in sight and very legible.
