Sorry I can't help the off topic.

Marcus Aurelius was better than Traianus, however the best emperor of them all was Augustus.

Qwert can you please start putting the most recent map version on top in page 1???

Edit: It would also be nice to see the map details and gameplay strategy in the first post.

There is no way anyone other than Augustus was better than Trajan. When praising emperors, the saying went-- crap, I don't remember it. But it implied that Romans were of the opinion that Augustus was only slightly better than Trajan.

PS. Maybe I'll go make a thread about it...

Qwert this map is played differently from the classic CC style. Could you put a description of how it works on the first page?

I know you probably have done this in bits and pieces throughout the whole thread but I think you should have a description on the first post. Just by looking at the map I cannot understand how it works, which I don't think is a positive thing at all!

Thanks qwert. I would like to understand this map as I'm obviously interested in the subject matter.

Btw, another thing. You usually leave all the versions of your maps in the first post and this makes the loading super slow. Why not keep just the latest 3 or 4 versions? I think that would be enough.

Good Luck! :)

In that case why not change them to text links? Rather than having them all in [img] tags?
What do you know about map making, bitch?

Ok,here a story about Imperium Romanum map-these is years 117Ad,where Roman Empire whas at its greatest extend.The ruler whas Emperor Trajanus.
Bonuses is very clear,if you hold all ships you get bonus,if you hold all legions you get bonus,if you hold all praetorian you get bonus.
Town bonus-words very clear tell that for holding"Each Town" you get bonus 2(example-hold Tarraco get 2---hold Tarraco and Carthago get 4).
Gameplay-for map to be balanced,and that nobody have advantage,i have several gameplay options(note-for option 2 and 3,limit for number of players is 7)
1.To be like others games,except that Cohors,Roma,Ships,Legions and Towns be neutral.
2.To all terittories be neutral,and only Towns to be open for players.
3.To all terittories be neutral,and players to start from Ships.
4.To all be open,and only Roma and cohorts to be neutral.
What option is best to map be good balanced?

I really like the map, I've just been a lazy bum and not commented yet.

Gameplay-wise, I think you have a fair map here. I would suggest going with conquest-style gameplay, with all players starting at your noted towns. That will liven things up by having everyone start with at least one legion, and only needing to conquer two more. Now if you go with towns, you're going to have to adjust where the legion flags are so there's an equal chance of getting them, else there's a "you're screwed" situation for a few people (Carthage, namely).

That solution may be a bit of work. You could also have anything bonus-holding start neutral and stick players everywhere else. Make sure to have towns at 5 or so, as taking a town in close quarters and its instant +2 bonus will mean near-certain death for all opposing armies in the near vicinity early-game.

bryguy, yes you have, several pages back. Map Stats keeps track of that you know.

I can read 100% of the text, it's gotten much better from previous versions.

You mean Carthage-Alehandria,well i can put big number of Neutrals in Crete and Cyrenaica,and solve these problem.
Problem with Legion Flags i can solve(if you think that someon can have advantage)in that way,that for Bonus you must hold 4 legions.

regarding Bryguy's comments about the readability of the text: I don't think it's as bad as bryguy says, but much o the text is a little muddy. The black against the blue sea looks blurry, and in some of the smaller text on the regions the letters tend to blend in with each other.

The Rome defense map is much better than when I last looked... I would lose the fancy border between Rome and the Alpes map, and make them two distinct insets - this way it looks like they somehow connect.

I see from your first post that you are still working out the start. If you're going to stick with the +2 for towns I would suggest you make them neutral to start, or else somebody could start with an unfair early bonus. Other than that I'd leave it open for discussion.

Bonuses is very clear,if you hold all ships you get bonus,if you hold all legions you get bonus,if you hold all praetorian you get bonus.

Does this need to be updated? Because the map says "Hold III."

Many of the Town territories are also Region territories - this could lead to some big bonuses!

Yes mine mistake,i will change these to "Hold III"

Town Terittories-you mean Legions?

Well you know that i have problems,before with Names in terittories,and i try to create something what people can read,and i think that i manage to do these.

The Rome defense map is much better than when I last looked... I would lose the fancy border between Rome and the Alpes map, and make them two distinct insets - this way it looks like they somehow connect.

Why to lose? How you mean "Somehow connect"?Please need more info about that to understand these opinion.

Well i can create to get one bonus per town,but i have several options and option who is best for gameplay will be in map.
