Good game guys, hope you all enjoyed the map.

Hitru, I don't think you can ghost anymore. You've qualified yourself out of the newbie bracket here too, well done.

Not sure what you mean by ghosting, but thank you! smile

The map was good, thanks for making it. It created lots of tension and was not that lush, which is variety compared with usual rb maps. I also likes how there were only single copies of some luxuries forcing players to fight for them.

There could have been little bit more water and islands, accessible both before and after astro.

I liked the map as well. The horse distribution/placement I was especially fond of, and the overpowered islands were nice, even if most of us never used them.

Thanks again for the map, Commodore, I liked it as well, and I still remember and appreciate how fast you finished it for us. The relative barrenness was fun, and I think that it should be law from now on that all maps MUST include little island fortresses of hate where defeated players can stew and plot revenge.

In hindsight, I only have a few complaints:
One, it was not fair that Coeurva needed to cross the ocean to reach his whale island while everyone else had coastal access.
Two, either everyone or no one should have had room for a filler city on the coast north/south of their capital, assuming they settled in place.
Three, RFS-81 and hapahazard1 had no hope of peacefully attaining there own horse source. That should not have been the case.
Four and last, the gems should have been free of jungle, just like the silver and gold were.

I think he suspects that you did all the hard work while i just handled the reporting mischief . Or else he wants to see what you can do solo / as the proper lead and is giving you a poke.

The map was cool. I'm reading other people's report now and am jealous of their starts, despite ours being (obviously) fine. This implies to me that it was a proper equal-but-different map, and that is hard. The very precise balance between Astro being a a must have tech and being pointless is also ... expert. I'm almost sorry we didn't get to play with that more.
