I think it's that way on pirpose to promote CV importance in south... and the GV route through middle...

Also it does apear to have mountains .... but they should be small .. 'beta style' i think Cita said in earlier post ... 5-6k nothing crazy but does create a line...

also apears the they are all setup with bottle necks these 'gaps' are part of that but without un earthly 30k mountains ... plus there is lagre front and then a 'back country'

looks good so far .. except i noticed that the HQ for the north is farther then the distances of the two lower countrys HQ's are apart ... 15 vs 13 grids ... dont know if that will make a difference in gameplay .. but give it a look

wow, Fester wasn't lying to me when he said that the bases are close together. I look forward to seeing that map in the MA... I hate having to commute

Looks really great, love the cv port placements and the resulting access to other countries.

Think Roscoroo brought up a good point about the top side having its HQ too far out of reach of the other countries, could be wrong though.

I noticed that the cv ports don't really have any airfields near them for defense, don't know if that was intentional or not.

The right bottom still looks like gangbang corner. Octavius seems to have made a good case for the reasoning behind that. Don't know what could be done to give that portion the leverage that it'll need.

Overall it looks great, must agree that it looks very promising. Excellent work there Fester

Looks promising Fester. Have a suggestion. Number the fields in rows from left to right with each row being one sector in height, eg.

a1 a2 a3 a4 a5
a6 v7 p8 a9 v10

Makes it a lot easier to find your way around the large maps. We treid to do this with the pizza map but they were skewed at some point.

Fester,

A couple of suggestions to keep the CVs in action ...

I would close the water gap on the west side of the island so that the Northwest CV groups don't mix with the Southern CV groups. This would keep the CV action local to that body of water.

I would close in the amount of open space in all 3 bodies of water so the CV hiding would be hard to do and also make the chances of CVs running into each other that more probable. I would like you to really make CV hiding almost impossible. You want this map full of action and CVs seem to play a big part in your plan, so CV hiding would defeat your purpose.

Looks like a great map and <~~> for putting it together.~~
