3 new maps have been uploaded. What do you guys think? Which are your favourites? I like the 8 Thoughts myself

seems 8 thoughts will be like the chinese checkers map (sucks) in that it is so balanced in bonus' that buildup games are inevitable. i hope not, because it looks cool

I take it you haven't played it yet. The shared borders kinda prevent it from becoming buildup matches.

Anyway, looks like my maps are winning.

I live in California, so I love the San Francisco Map. It's nice noticing all the districts I've been to. The Alcatraz is an interesting addition as well.

Have games underway on all 3... no favourite yet as not completed any...

The Siege one looks gorgeous and at first look is complicated... but once you've played a few turns you can work it out!

8 Thoughts definitely looks the best but I'm not sure how much it will really encourage tactical thought. Siege is just way too busy, too many continents to keep track of. San Francisco's continents are all far too big but I think it has to win all things considered.

I've just started all three maps. For the Siege map - at the moment I'm still very confused as to the bonuses. The legend throws me off and I can't tell what I have to hold for what with the + "this" kind of things. I figure I'll give it some time and try to play a few rounds before I really place my vote.

The other two maps look very nice too. I agree with others that the Alcatraz feature is a very cool one and will add in some more strategy.

They are all drawn well and I look forward to shedding blood on all of them.

ive found the 8 thoughts incredibly confusing and difficult to fathom where to start from. its all so complicated! but im enjoying it nonetheless

i really like the siege map, its very busy yes, but that makes it very interesting. although id be completely screwed without greasemonkey..........

Having spent a great deal of time in Badger land, I'm pretty sure that badgers don't do aerobics, and if they did they would most certainly not do so together.

New maps :D

Best new map?
