what about an Indonesia/New Guinea map similar to the Philippines map?

Philippines looks a little small to me.

i haven't actually played on it though...

Philippines is a good map, there are a lot of small commands and it's well balanced with lots of connections. It plays a lot better than it looks. Not to say it doesn't look good! But it definitely plays very well. ;)

"Loosely" is exactly what it would have to be. Can't violate anyone's copyright.

i'm quite new 2 this site only been playing about a month i absolutely love it & am genuinely hooked :)

i have 3 map ideas i don't know if u will like them & there just basic conceptual ideas:

1) EUROPA-LAND a large in depth map of europe with maybe capital cities giving bonus troops?

2) PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN a detailed map of the caribbean islands with ships & treasure added into the equation?

3) INDIANA a detailed map of just india with lots of natural barriers to divide the map up abit i.e. mountains, rivers, lakes, deserts & forests?



I think a good Caribbean map would be interesting. Set in the time period of the settlement of the new world, pirates, etc. Might be fun.

For that map there might need to be either a pop out section for the Lesser Antilles like in the 11th picture there or could we do some kind of perspective from the south east that made the Lessers larger and the Greaters smaller?

I've spent a couple of hours messing around with this idea, and I've decided it's a dud. There's too little land and the islands are tiny. We'd have to add a lot of ships to make use of the map, and then it gets messy. There are better ideas out there.

gotta admit i dint look over all 12 pages to see if this has been covered or not? wud love to see a naval battle scenario including special rules regarding certain types of craft. think axis n allies. perhaps a great period wud be the heyday of the sail ships and the British Empire ruling the waves. Tks for chance to input. great job

I feel like 12 Domains makes up for the lack of there being a Westeros map!

More important than maps is a larger variety of card value sets. For example...

An escalite setting which at a certain point starts heavily increasing by 5's, 10's, 15's, 40's, 100's ect. would be the ideal setting for the larger maps like CM and EM and would allow for longer games with large amounts of players which would not result in long drawn out fights.

You already have a great variety of maps... of course... more would be better. But you could get SO MUCH MORE out of the maps you already have if you simply allow for more variation besides just escalate, escalate and flat rate.

It would be cooler if we had a map that could change every full turn. That way every so many turns the planets "aligned " and you could attack all the way from pluto to the Sun.

But I don't think we have that capability on the site yet. I know we talked about having a Day-and-night map where only one half of the earth was illuminated and playable each turn and I believe that was the downfall of that idea.

Need help with the Twelve Domain map !
I can't see the players at all ?
Everything else is fine. Trees, snow and dirt is perfect !
BUT I CAN'T SEE ANY PLAYERS Or NUMBERS ?
It REALLY ISN'T NICE WHEN YOU MEET UP WITH A PLAYER WHO IS THERE TIMES Your SIZE
