OZKansas is a 512x512 map named after an AH player who passed away after a long fight with cancer.

It is a very nice map too.

I believe so.

Likewise if they have 8 total bases and only 2 are airfields, they get reset.

The intent (at least as I understand it) is to make the "final days" of a reset less of a pain for the outnumbered side. If you're down to 2 airfields, life pretty much sucks.

I'd like to say thanks to Hitech and HTC for making the effort, and that I like some of these new changes.


I'd also like to say that I appreciate the fact that they are asking questions, and taking reasonable and fairly stated criticism without harsh or heavy handed responses. Not just on my behalf, but for all of those who have stated their position in a reasonable manner either way.

You couldn't get to that state.  The reset would have happened once they got down to 3 airfields.  There are two separate settings, number of airfields and total number of bases.  Whenever either of those(not both of those) falls below the minimum, a reset is triggered.

I think the confusion came from the wording of 6 fields of any type  ... which could be taken to mean of any one  type. I think HT meant "6 total fields regardless of type".

I like grizzleys idea about randomizing the number of bases to reset, he posted in the ENY thread. I'm too lazy to learn how to quote.
