Adjusted Territory Bonus
Instead of your standard +1 for every 3 territories, after 9 territories, the territory bonus amounts have been adjusted to give out differently.

Autodeploy / Decay
Armies are automatically placed or taken away from specific territories on the map. If taken away the total army count on the territory cannot go below one.

Buildings

Multiple territories in one area of the map are represented by a single territory in another part of it.

Bombardments
Some territories bombard instead of attacking. After the attacker wins in a bombardment the defending territory is replaced with a neutral army and the attacker cannot advance.

Capitals
A specific form of double dipping that appears as a single or a group of single strategic territories.

Collections
Unlike continents these only require a specific amount of the designated territories to gain a bonus.

Conquest Gameplay
Players only start with a small number of territories and must conquer most of the map away from neutrals before reaching other players.

Dead Space
There are territories that don't provide any sort of continent bonus.

Double Dipping
Territories show up in multiple continents.

Killer Neutral Territories
If you hold one it will revert to it's original neutral value when you begin your turn!

Naming Confusion
The territory names are written in a complex way occasionally causing deployment mistakes.

Negative Bonus
There are negative bonuses on the map so that you lose armies instead of gaining armies for holding certain combinations of areas.

One Way Borders

Borders where attacks can only occur in a single direction.

Out of Play
Through bombardments and one way borders a portion of the map can be taken out of play for the remainder of the match if bombed out.

Ranged Attack
Some territories on the map are connected without touching.

Starting Positions
This map contains start positions, meaning players will start with one or more of a preset group of territories.

Strategic Resources
Instead of continents specific territories or combinations of territories provide bonuses.

Trapped Territory
Due to one way borders there is no way to attack out of the territory.

Victory Condition
Players can win by holding a set of specified territories instead of eliminating the other players.

Also, perhaps consider the option
Split Map:
Map is split in an unnatural way to fit it into the size restrants (such as Egypt: Upper, and the Westeros map eipi and myself are developing)

Can you let us finish collecting these before the inevitable debate over naming confusions?

Night Strike is also doing a great job with these - thanks everyone, list is being updated as you edit.

Nate, you messed up on Europa. The correct ones for it are Collections (Islands) and Double Dipping (Motherland and Transcontinental) as well as Naming Confusion (all those abbreviations).

Magnificent effort.

Ok, we're bound to have arguments over Naming confusion but please post any corrections here and / or additions when they come.

I am writing the new code for this to go into the database now so we'll get a good look soon. (Easy to edit after).
