A new map is born...

[Taz-in-Space]

As I indicated about a week ago, I am releasing a map that Tnarg and I created. I feel that he would want this community to enjoy this map.

A little about the map:

The map is designed for 12 PBW players, but CAN be played solo.

There are over 100 systems on the map.

A special new type of system I call the Sinkhole System.

EVERY star can be used to hide in, as in Star Trek, but you MAY take some damage.

A special advantaged 13th player slot is available.

If the above 'Infomercial' has whetted your appetite then by all means download and enjoy.

I like the hiding in a star idea. Very cool. Can't wait to play a game with this map. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Thanx taz, i'll give you some more feedback once i've played it

Taz,
It looks to me like Player 2 (at sigma 3) is slightly disadvantaged. That is the only position that has 2 wp to start and is within 3 warps of another player.

I would have also thought that you would have started one player per cluster and then went around again with players 7-12 for the second in each cluster, in case the game is only played with 6 players.

Other than those minor points, it looks quite innovative, and interesting to play.

Dan C., thanks for the feedback/suggestions.
I will look at the Player 2 situation. Also an excellent suggestion about numbering. Looks like there will need to be a Version 2.0 for the map... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif
