Map: New Map: Sha Bay v1.2 FINAL (well semi-final)

[DakaSha]

updated to v1.2

* all starting positions are "fairly" balanced. all i mean by that is that they all border a minimum of 4 land provinces and a max of 5.

* Volcano province received its volcano this time ^^. It has also received custom defense

* The bad *** province "University of Quantum Mechanics" has received a lab but also custom defense. this will be tougher to take over now but its surrounded by 9 friggen provinces ^^

* The central province of Baalz has also received custom defense (it has increased likelihood of magic sites)

* The eastern and western provinces bordering Baalz have received (fairly easy) custom defense and it is always possible to recruit sea dwellers there for easy water access.

* Played with the zoom feature and think i got it pretty much right

I did not change province sizes as im to inexperienced and dont want to mess things up. the only large province is the university.


This is basically the final product and ill be moving on to my next map which i hope will be much better due to the experience ive accumulated doing this one ^^

but i will update this map according to ideas by players. are the custom defenses to strong or weak? certain provinces over or under balanced as starting positions? please let me know about anything that comes to mind. Its pretty much impossible to test my own maps as a game takes to long and as i said im pretty inexperienced and things will not be perfect.

updated to v1.1

* south east forest has been made into 2 provinces
* couple of province pixels slightly moved
* couple more provinces marked as no start
* volcano added

next update will prob get the map to allow only balanced starting locations and ill add the sea dweller sites. I will make a couple provinces large (mabye a couple small) and make the university/city province larger through scripting. if all else is well then thatll prob be the final product

Here is my very first dominions map. due to my inexperience its sure to be an unbalanced piece of crap but i learned alot and am pretty confident in creating much better maps in the future ^^ (if i get over the stress this one has caused and even start new ones )

this is version 1.00 and the map will likely be updated a couple times (any bugs like provinces incorrectly linked and so on will be fixed no matter what and smaller things like more fixed province naming might happen. also see below). im just fed up with it right now so i thought id release it to the forum. if anybody wants to try it and finds any errors or really stupid crap let me know.

i want to make the volcano province have a fixed volcano site but im not exactly sure how. do i just add:

#setland 72
#knownfeature �volcano�

?


anyways as i said im sure some things arnt perfect so just let me know. constructive criticism is welcomed although it doesnt mean im going to agree or have the drive to change some big graphical aspect of the map ^^

thanks for trying if u do

edit: oh and i want to add guarantied sea dweller sites to the coast but thats basically the same thing as the volcano site
