Hello!

Every week we vote on 5 maps, and the map with the most votes becomes the map of the week for the following week.

Go here to vote: https://www.WarLight.net/MapOfTheWeek/View?Week=40

You can use this thread to discuss the current vote. Tell us why you voted the way you did!

Duel won! I think there aren't any map of the week games :(

Archaros.

Qina

Africa. Tell me if there are map of the week games.

It was close between Archaros and Qina, but I went Archaros.

I would love to see how Fizzer would set up the map of the week. Doing lotto? Or a 'wait for the other to be booted' kinda game?. Come on - Give it a go Fizz!

I guess it will be 4 players. No-luck cyclic,but the „first turn“ is the order of joining. First and Second joined get a place. And it will be „wait for the other to be noob or get booted“ game.

Fizzer,thoughs?

I don't think such a thing can be done, Bayern.

And Fizzer, give us the game on the map of the week plz.

i wouldn't be surprised if he hasn't even noticed that duel won and the game isn't being made. (just because you can't make a game with less starting points then players)

Archaros. I can see some good Diplomacy Games on that map.

Basing my opinion on the results of the previous week it's already defined that Africa Big would win for week 40. Duel didn't surprisingly overwhelm the voting but stayed at a decent score for winning, marking a prestigous interesting spot for AB to win.

However I didn't vote for Africa Big this time because I don't like the mapmaker at all. His name is Belgian Gentleman. He's like an unserious dude with some weird hidden irony nobody guesses and then he tries to get attention to himself by writing this post. pff what a douchebag.

Belgian Gentleman, you must come from a country of unwashed fopdoodles, commenting on a voting thread that features your own map.

Duel is now being made, but only as 2 player FFAs.

Yup, it is NOT a 1v1. it is a 2 player FFA.

Duel?
I cannot disagree more. Great strategic play gets yet way less rewarded in FFA, because of the diplomatic aspect where those who can't get what FFA means end up teaming all long. You want to make warlight a no-brainer game? 4 players FFA auto-game are one of the main games relatively new players join, and having the duel map is 1. killing the idea of 4 players FFA games, where these relatively new players tend to appreciate the high variance, 2. representing warligth as a ''let's see who get's booted first'' or ''let's see who makes the dumb attack move because he's tired'', 3. encouraging the players to play lotto games. Fizzer, do you really believe this is coherent with the idea of ''warlight as a skill game''? Because I really, really don't.

That said, I really appreciate the map-of-the-week feature, and nice options this week, as often.

MindPalace, I don't think Fizzer would vote for Duel himself. People picked the map 1) as an anti-vote against the selections for map of the week 2) for the heck of it. So no, it's not coherent with Warlight as a skill game, but it is coherent with how the community is at the same time very quick to make demands and are on the other hand the cause of all the dumb content. Let's remember that one weird time duel was voted for map of the week with a stupid grin and carry on.

@Timinator Lol, what a strategic game. green had positional advantage for sure

Yep. Ninjas are so much stronker than Pirates. Unfair game!
