This is the last map in the Battle Islands Series.
http://WarLight.net/SinglePlayer.aspx?PreviewMap=13427

Useful comments are welcomed, before the map goes public.

Thanks to all the play-testers, you helped a lot fine-tuning the map.

If you want to play a test game, let me know and I'll host a game for you.
Settings: similar to strategic 1v1, but with 4 starting spots and wasteland size set on 8.

Hope you like.

Oh Arun, why do you post?

I recall this when I see you have made yet another post@

"Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools because they have to say something."

They are not bad maps. Is your problem with them that they are fictional? As long as a map has playability it is perfectly valid.

And if I were to take someone's opinion on them having a point or not, I'd look to a more experienced player, one with a grasp of warlight capable of taking them to past the mediocre level.

Are you serious?

This has been a brilliant series of maps, aesthetically excellent and well balanced.

When you have an opinion, explain your reasoning. Take it for granted that no one will understand your viewpoint. Experience should teach you this tbh.

In inkscape:
-1- select all the territories you want to have a border around.
-2- unify them (path union)
-3- outset once or twice depending how thick you want the border to be. (path outset)
-4- chose a fill colour and remove the stroke colour
-5- lower layer to bottom (if you use a background colour layer, lower that one as well to the bottom or add it when you finished with all the borders)

for the second border, just copy the first one and go to step -3-
etc...

I super hate your map dude. I seem to not be able to win very often. Clearly unbalanced...

|>Feedback 1 from General Arun {Warlighter} about map Battle Islands V version 1.0:
This map looks ok, but the whole battle island series is past its sell by, so it has become crap.


|>STOP MAKING BATTLE ISLAND MAPS PLEASE


Seriously arun, what's your problem with these maps? If you don't like them, don't play them. You gave your "opinion" 1 week ago already, no need to spam stupid feedback. You vote a zero, fine, just leave it there. I put a lot of effort in making balanced and nice looking maps.

You only show us how much maturity you lack.

Chaos, I am unfortunately in a 4v4 East Asia tourney with Arun on my team. First game there are 3 messages from him "claiming" an entire section of the map as his own. I am considering surrendering on turn 1, just so that I don't have to hear anything else from him.

The map is good, as one would expect from you (and as was clearly shown by the 10 minute gap between submission and acceptance). I want to say I hate it, because I cannot seem to get a win to save my life, but otherwise it seems pretty good.
