	Suffering from ads?

Well, Sabre, I guess I could, except that I have not modified all of these yet. I am currently playing my Mira map, which is the last one I modified. I have several to go before I am done. Maybe I will batch up the first dozen, would that be cool?

ouch... if you start antares on deity and unfortunatly begin in the middle, you'll lose the first turn AND have to walk 50 turns to plant your first city. because the AI will always be a step ahead. and with 2 settlers, 4 workers, 12 defensive and 6 offensive units... you'll never get past

	Reminder Enter the AD-FREE zone

Just a reminder on these maps... I have restricted cities to: forest, plains, flood plains, grassland. That's it. I design a lot of these maps to force humans and AI alike to use colonies. Many of these maps will have large land areas that cannot be settled. Of course, a human can plant a forest on a tundra square, or clear a jungle, to get at a key resource.
Also notice that these maps are climatologically correct. Rubber is most likely to be found near the equator.
Barbarians like to hoard resources. It is likely early that the gold, ivory, or dyes are located at barbarian camps. The barbs don't know about iron and don't tame horses though; that's why they remain barbarians!
Artillery and radar artillery is set to kill. That's the only change to units I made to the rules. I changed a few cities around, chiefly adding Luxor to the Egyptian list, and re-doing the American list.
I will post more maps when I play-test them. I am currently up to Mira .

I play-tested it. Nobody can found a city in the first few turns, AI included. They plop down cities as soon as they find a site... which isn't always the best site. If you can get nearer to the coast, you'll find better sites for your capital. Hey, I never said it wasn't challenging!

What are the sizes of these maps? Well actually I just want to know they are not huge or bigger?

vmxa1, all these maps are standard-sized, though you can play with all 31 civs on them, if you like. Depends on how much of a challenge you want! I do have one huge map (Thuban) that I have made, but I have not yet updated it for Conquests. I am at letter M right now.

quote: Originally posted by Quasar1011 It's just my way of keeping track of names. The idea is, if there were a planet orbiting Vega, that was capable of humanoid life, then the planet would be named Vega, just for clarity. If I used this for Earth, I'd have to call our home planet "Sol". I've been naming all my scenarios after stars since Civ2, figuring I'd never run out of star names!

I guess it's worth mentioning that our planet's more FORMAL name is "Terra of Sol III" instead of "earth". If there really ARE planets "out there" (and I'm one who believes there are numberless ones) then they would be formally named the same way.

quasar,

inspired by your great collection, i remembered another great set of maps i used to love. they were published in may 2002 at CFC. here's the link to the creator's homepage:
http://www.geocities.com/thebeerengine/civ3/

i you feel like creating any strategical maps (it doesn't have to be hexagonal), i'd really appreciate it. check out the maps 4-7 (7 is my favourite!) or look at the attached image (this is #5) to see what i mean...

this is just, if you feel like creating some more stuff


ps. sorry for posting other maps in your thread. but i'm sure that if whoever enjoys your maps will enjoy these too... and vice versa
