Well, it went live today and lasted about an hour.
First 23 Bish and 8 Rooks attacked 6 Knits, while ignoring each other. Then, when the Bish had 25% of Knit bases, they attacked the Rooks who ignored them to fight the Knits who made no effort to recapture their bases from the Bish.
Not exactly what I was hoping for, but at least it was something new.
This is more about how the game is played, not your nice looking map. You can try all you want to funnel fights on fronts, but if the game mechanics dont change, the behavior of the players wont. I wont beat that drum any further. Nice map! Thanks for doing it for us.
