Title: ? for Skuzzy - Zone and Strat guidelines for MA map
Post by: Ghastly on July 24, 2007, 08:55:24 AM

Hi Skuzzy,

Sorry, but I can't seem to find any guidance via a search of old posts.  So I feel that I need to ask before I go too far down the wrong path - for a map that's intended for use in the MA:

1) Is it permissible to have more than one of a particular factory (zone target) per zone?

2) If so, are there guidelines as to how many strats would be "too much"?

3) Are there guidelines as to how many zones are too many?

and thanks in advance,

It is not a good idea to have more than one of each factory type per zone.  Re-supply can get strange.

For an MA type terrain, the number of zones really depends on the terrain design.  256 mile terrains rarely need more than once zone per country.

512 mile terrains could benefit from 2 zones per country.  But I would say, generally, an MA terrain should not need more than 2 zones per country.
