I think this is my first 5 star rating. A really challenging board game. Immensely frustrating because so difficult, but very addictive. And what satisfaction when you finally hit on the right strategy and tactics. I won - in 96 moves - against the AI, but only after playing and losing a dozen times. Brilliant!

Thank you, this is the first time someone has rated my map 5 stars. I wanted an original novelty map that is fairly difficult and still fun to use. I guess I achieved my goal :).

Fantastic concept and great execution. The varied placement of the colored squares makes it very difficult to capture a bonus. Kudos on a truly challenging map.

Players should note - make sure to set your own bonuses because all the defaults are zero.

Review by Krulle on 1/9/2013.
Interesting concept.
But no bonuses means careful planning to deflect the others against attacking each other. And to have some armies in reserve for the final 1vs1, when everyone gets the same updates.

Edit: I read it. A preset would have been nice. I also miss a bonus-field for owning all of one colour, ie for owning all 8 dark-blue fields. It's the one I would have expected.

I thought about it, but thought that it was too similar to the square of 4 territories = x income

This map is a fun challenge either for small teams or medium FFA. Go ahead and put in as much people as possible, but chaos will pursue.

Unique set up but to default with no bonuses is ridiculous, put in the effort to default a bonus

There is no bonus so you can't take any advantage over the opponent.
