map idea: Moon Race

[Victor Sullivan]

still working on it. wondering why I havent moved to the next stage yet as everyone says this isnt the forum for graphics. in the middle of moving this week so may not post changes for a while.

A couple of things to help you move on:

1) I agree with carl that maybe you can change the background into an arcade style background. I personally think it will work with the rest of the map.
2) You need to submit a design brief.

Wait, what? I thought the design briefs were just for image size increases? I'm confused now...

Well if it had changed, I wasn't told So as far as I know, everyone still has to submit a design brief.

Hey, hey, I'm not old. I'm young-challenged.

Well, errr, maybe you're both young challenged:

Maybe the carto should update his brief submission post with the latest version and a paragraph about 'Intended Graphical Improvement' ?

I agree

latest version... I want to hear a bunch of

[Riskismy]

As per usual, I haven't read the entire thread

I really like the map though. Looks like it'll be fast and furious, very tough to keep your bonuses. It does seem like a disproportionate bonus for Maser Array + 3 whites. 50 troops means you need to hold it for just one turn and you've basically won. Perhaps that's the point, dunno, just seems like a whole lot for 4 territories on the face of it.

Looking forward to playing in any case

[Teflon Kris]

Nice - I like the changes.

[Victor Sullivan]

Nice - I like the changes.

I do too, though I'd suggest coloring the areas similarly to their colored icons, if that makes sense.

I tried that. The icons just blended into the background. Especially purple and yellow. Maybe if I go really light....

[isaiah40]

Looks much better duke!!

Or go the other extreme - go dark. Just try it out and see Hopefully this is enough to get the Draft Stamp...

Ok, for your cross map attacks, how about a line depicting them.

This whole notion of Russia owning Hawaii is driving me mad... That's USA territory!

The biggest problem that I see, right now, is that those floaty balls, rocket ships and strange buildings have no meaning or consequence for me. You've got the legend space, explain what it is that I'm looking at here.

I think its to do with the map-makers response to requests for cartoon-if-ication, the rockets connect to space ports etc though.

I quite like the strange buildings - kind of futuristic industrial-technological centres?

Yes but the point was that those need to be explained on the map itself.

Yeah, some kind of backstory along the lines of:

"As mankind and world politics adapt to life in Bio-Domes and the ever-expanding Techno-Cities, military developments focus on control of the Moon, its resources and the powerful Maser Array laser."

[natty dread]

I mean, the function of the different icons should be explained.

[Teflon Kris]

As far as I understand, only the rockets have a function, the rest are just standard regions belonging to bonus zones.?

[natty dread]

No, there are also factories. The icons should be listed on a legend, explained which is which, and what they do.
