okay, so here's the idea:

In map creation, distributions (called link distros) will be made to link every territory to another map(this mode would need to be specifically enabled at game creation)

also, the linked maps would only have link distros allowed if the links aren't circular

this would very effectively dodge the 3200 limit, for those many who want to go bigger

note: linked maps would not need to be unique. a generic battle field might be the only linked map except for a special place here and there.
