Like it, love it, want more of it. Great map.

The territories are exotically shaped, which makes for interesting connections and numerous chokepoints. You connect separate ends of the map with both islands and highways so that armies aren't stranded once they finish off a pocket of resistance near the edge - outflanking the enemy is a viable tactic on this map. The bonuses are a bit larger than normal, but they play well because territories are easy to capture AND easy to lose. I did see one missing connection, but can't recall where it was.

With regard to the scenarios, I would like to see the West Warlords include the territories in the northwest near Taipei. Otherwise I'm afraid that whoever begins in Miaoli can take advantage of the easy opportunity for northward expansion.

All in all, great work. I will be playing this map frequently.

Thanks for feedback. :)

I might includes northern Taiwan in West Warlords distribution but exclude a few bonuses can easily go to eastern Taiwan.

There are some experiments I'm doing. So I will update and maintain the map frequently. ;)

I rather enjoyed it. The use of out-lying islands along with the interior highway corridor make for unusual game play.

Yes. You control a Chinese regiment sent to Taiwan to support a massive communist revolution in the country of Taiwan. Amazing. I just made up a situation for this I think.
