This is map is an awesome piece of work for several reasons. There is an easy and well ballanced bonussystem, which includes nice features for clarity, like the coloured rims for the super bonusses or the colour variety for the minor bonuses.
The number of territories and the seperated continents provide a bunch of possibilities for scenario/roleplaying games as well as competitive games. The amount of chokepoints, sea ways and mountains provide nice strategic opportunities.
So overall, with its lovely, but descreetly artwork it is pretty much that what an average map in warlight should look like. Unfortunately, for warlight, this map is much above average, which is why it deserves 5/5, in my opinion.

Incredible, beautiful map. Not only is the world of Archaros gorgeous, but it plays incredibly smoothly. The connections are clear and logical and the bonuses work well together. The maker plainly put a great deal of thought into this map - I especially appreciate the back story and the introduction of each scenario and distribution. Simply phenomenal!
I found only one minor error - Teeth of Bondurat should not connect to Unukos.

I want to use this respond button to thank you for reviewing so many new maps. It's clear that you take your time to write an informed and considerate review, which is nice since for some maps your review is the only one. Good reviews are helpful and motivating to mapmakers and I think that goes underappreciated.

I like the whacky bending style of the world, and the bonuses appear to distributed very evenly

Awesome map, we played here some 4/5 players FFA's and every time it was interesting. A lot of chokepoints allows for startegic use of blockade cards. There are no 1-tile bonuses, and allmost all of bonusses are 2,3,4 which are all valued according to the number of their territories (-1) which makes map quite balanced. Also graphics are neat and visible. The only thing I can think of that could make this map better is maybe a fast shortcut between north and south (there are 3 such links between west and east), however I am not sure wheter it would not spoil this map so maybe leave it as it is:)

It's a nice-looking map, but some of the connections are tough to see.

A beautiful-looking map and probably very enjoyable for a good long game of 4 or 5 players, however it was a bit of a foregone conclusion with 10 armies every single go in single-player mode as it was so easy to expand

Now THAT was a fun map! Big, but not too time consuming because there were some bigger territories mixed in with the little ones and good connections to go from one side of the map to the other. This will be another map I'll be playing over and over, nicely done :o) I'll give it one of my rare 5 star ratings for the playablility and the nice size without having to take 5 hours to play.

Well laid out map. The settings are very challenging and balanced. You struggle for turf at start, hit the easy spot for 15 or so turns where you are chewing up the enemy. All the while you know somethings coming because its just to easy at that point. You slowly reduce down to attacking with 2's as your spread out so much that's the best you can do. Then things get real tough once the AI stops taking neutral territories. Theirs usually one AI that's stronger by then and it will sacrifice everything to stop you from getting a star. If you keep attacking with 2's against 1's and resist creating stacks, you will get there. It will take every army you have so leave none behind. Its not until the last couple turns that you can create big stacks and you have to because the AI will risk everything to stop a star. The most dangerous AI is the one with one territory left and it gets a reinforcement card. Pay attention.
