Anyone up for generating a FFH2 map?

[Lord Parkin]

Not sure if this is the place to ask, but it seemed as good as any other. (Mods please feel free to move this to a more appropriate place.)

Basically, Irgy and I are keen to set up a competitive FFH2 game between ourselves with some AI's in the mix, but rather than generating a random map ourselves we'd prefer if someone could check one over before we start. Nothing major, we just want to make sure we don't waste our time starting out on a random map that turns out to be grossly unbalanced.

So, if anyone is keen and has a few minutes to spare, please let us know! Here are the settings we're going with:

- Standard size with default 7 civs (5 random AI's in total)
- I will be Falamar/Lanun, Irgy will be Flauros/Calabim
- Monarch difficulty for us both
- Erebus Continent map script
- Flat world wrap, Medium sea level
- Normal speed
- Options to tick: No Vassal States, Blessings of Amathaon, Living World, All Unique Features
- Mapmaker needs to make sure our two civs are on opposite sides of the map (if not opposite corners)... simply regenerate until get something close (preferred), or just edit starts with care
- Check that both of our starts are roughly fair (doesn't really matter much about the AI)... no need to do any major changes, just ensure it's not hideously unbalanced for one of us relative to the other
- Default settings for everything else

Please let us know if you're interested in helping us out - or if you want, just go right ahead and post a map for us to play on using the settings above. Should only take a few minutes of regenerating to find something decent, I imagine.

We're happy to return the favour too obviously if someone else needs a map at some stage...

[Lord Parkin]

Absolutely, if anyone else wants us to generate a map for them we're happy to oblige.

Here you go. Not perfect by any means, but should be enough for a decent game.

Thanks a heap, Mist. Much appreciated.

[Irgy]

Thanks so much Mist! 100 turns in now, and it's looking like just what we were after.

[Lord Parkin]

Yep! The only slight issue we encountered was that Irgy had visibility in tiles that he shouldn't have had - must have been a moved start that you didn't re-fog. Not a biggie though, just something to keep in mind for the future.

I'll post some demographics from 100 turns in soon, in case anyone's interested.

[Mist]

You're welcome guys. And yeah, I forgot to check the visibility after moving Calabim somewhere else. Again. Eh .

Glad you're having a good game.

I like anything having to do with FFH and screencaps!


Perhaps make a thread in the PBEM5 forum? That's where duel game reports get posted.

[Lord Parkin]

So as promised, a few progress screenies 100 turns into the game.

[To view the images, visit my spoiler thread. Unless you happen to be Irgy, then don't. ]

I'll post more after we play another session. Will hold off on posting maps until we can trade them in-game (I don't think Irgy knows where I am ).
