CC maps listed by thema.[UPDATED nov 6th]

[DJENRE]

LIST UPDATED!

SEE NEW LIST UPDATED - Nov. 6th

Please let me know if you see any mistake in that list or if you think we can ameliorate somewhere.
________________________________________________________________________________________
Concise description:

• I'm looking to know if somebody ever made a list of all CC maps, but listed by thema. If not, it could be a suggestion.

Specifics/Details:

• The list could be sorted as follow (e.g.) :
  
  • Geographical
    
    • Continents
    • Countries
    • Cities
  • Historical
    • WWII
    • Others
  • Fantasy
  • Sports
  • Others

Tell me if you see other possible categories...

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:

• Not for the site directly, but mostly for Tournament Organizers. But when creating Tournaments, it benefits the site.

Thank you all for your help!

EDIT : Ok I started to work on that list.
I used this to start : https://www.conquerclub.com/public.php?mode=maps

As far as I know you are the first making such a suggestion.
There has been suggestion to sort maps out by type of game play but not by themes.

[betiko]

I can see how this could help finding inspiration for those creating tournaments

Always first!!!

Indeed!

[Dukasaur]

Good idea.

Just as a point of information though, many people have suggested this in the past...

[riskllama]

i would think size & difficulty would be better "themes" to sort them by.

[DJENRE]

Good idea.

Just as a point of information though, many people have suggested this in the past...

And it has never been done?
Do you know anybody who could take care of that?

[DJENRE]

First post edited.
First list is there!

[riskllama]

This is the excel file I made : CC MAPS LISTED BY THEMA
Please let me know if you see any mistake in that list or if you think we can ameliorate somewhere.

well, you spelled "theme" wrong, for starters...
seriously tho, i think this could be rather handy. how difficult/time consuming would this be to get coded?

Thema or theme is not the same? I'm not sure what's the difference beetween the 2 words in english.

I have no idea about how / where / how long to code it.
What do you mean exactly? Can you tell me more? What's your idea?

Also, you've seen I kept the number of territs from the initial list and also the gameplay. You was talking about "difficulty", do you want to work on that list?

[riskllama]

gah, you want ME to volunteer/contribute???

awkward...
honestly DJ, i haven't even played all the maps yet...

[IcePack]

Instead of just theme if the work is going to be done it should be comprehensive filter to maps. By theme, by style (conquest classic etc) size etc

No But I have no idea how to list maps by difficulty. It's pretty hard to do I presume, and on wich criteria?
I thought you had your own idea on the subject.
Never mind

Yes what's easy works well! I can think about it. But I'm not sure I can be the man of the situation there. Maybe somebody who know all maps better than me....

Ok so By theme, it's almost done, we can add difficulty, then style :
I presume you mean like :
Classics
Maps with starting points
Maps with special conditions for victory.
..........Any other idea?

[Metsfanmax]

Good idea.

The discussion about it got lumped into a wider discussion about revamping Game Finder, which I think is part of why it never got done.

[riskllama]

centcom & the new game finder still kinda suck.

[IcePack]

I like centcom now that I’ve gotten used to it.
Game finder I still find myself using the old one for sure

Yeah, I have a set of criteria, but no time to work on it.

Maybe I'll just do a blank spreadsheet, and crowdsource it.

Cool, let me know! Thank you anyway.

Gosh I love discussion groups and when people go off on tangents.

[DJENRE]

Is there a Gen Contrib medal for that work?

[Mad777]

I checked your spread sheet, I kind of like it.

I think the Land & Seas (map #132) should go with Geographic/World?

I think this could open with more criteria for ranking those maps, I can see creating drop down menu(s) with all those different thema that you put in your spread sheet.

So from the Statistic tab you could see all map listed by # like it is, and with all the actual columns (except that there is question now about the release date that doesn't seems to match what the Map Fundry & quenched dates are...different topic ), and having those drop down menus (main category & sub category) appearing somewhere on the top that would get all the category listed on your sheet, and in a future a map can be categorize to another category that others may have we could add that new category into one of the drop down choices.

Not sure do if those map can be "tag" with such category and to be recognize by the menus....? If yes then it's kind of limitless and many different category can be consider, such as complex to not complex, geographical, map with objective or not, map with starting point, etc...

Thank you, I'm sure it will help many people (TO, cartographers, players....)

You're right, this map is alone => done => will be updated with the rest

Ok I gonna do the drop down menus

I let you check with IANCANTON?

Ok I gonna add some categories then, I 'll see past comments + I'll try my best

No idea, who can answer that?

Actually, it should go in the rubbish bin. That map needs a revamp. Hive is the only map which can legitimately claim alphanumeric territory titles.
