How did you come to play in tournaments?

WidowMakers USA Map Pack

Greetings fellow tournament lovers, as many of you may heard if you venture outside the Tournament Forum, WidowMakers has been in the process of creating a pack of 6 individual maps based on the 6 bonuses in Conquer Club’s already popular USA map. It has taken him just over 6 months to get all six maps to the final forge stage of development, and soon we will have 6 new maps that were specifically made so they could be the focus of many tournaments in the future… So this is very exciting news for us here in the Tournaments Forum…

Here is how WidowMakers came up with the idea…

WidowMakers wrote:Hey everyone,

Let me explain a little bit about how this map collection idea came about. I started playing some tournaments a while back and I really enjoy it. The time that the organizers spend is huge and the style, types and organization of each tournament allows for many different play styles for many different players. So thanks to all of the organizers and all they do.

This now brings me to the point of the new maps. I wanted to make a map collection that could be the focus of many different tournaments in the future. So I was thinking "what could I make that would fill this desire?" I looked over the maps we already have on CC and found it, the USA map.

The USA map has 6 bonus regions (West, Rockies, S. West, S. East, Great Lakes, New England) representing 48 of the 50 sates. I had the idea that each bonus region could be developed into its own map thus having a total of 6 maps. So the entire map set would be a total of 7 (these 6 region maps and the original USA map)

Won’t be long before we can play on all seven of these exciting maps, to get a preview of what you can expect visit this thread :arrow:
