While I think having cuba be its own power would be cool, it would kind of like having New Zealand be its own power in g40. You would have to wonder how much they really contribute. Maybe you could make it so that the Warsaw Pact can pay to build units to support Castro and the gang in cuba, possibly at higher cost cuz of the blockades and embargoes and stuff, if the Warsaw pact is smart, like they were during the cold war, they’ll buff the hell out of cuba to prevent a traditional land invasion, and nukes aren’t always realistic. If they’re dumb then cuba will just be invaded and it will be an opportunity lost, which absolutely could have happened if the ussr wasn’t paying attention. I’m thinking about alternative rules where one or two players play each Nuetral category so it feels like they’re entities and not roadblocks, but I’ve got a ton of stuff I need to do before then soooooo… The setup for cuba will not change for balancing reasons, it accurately represents their power near it’s height, which was also the time when it was diplomatically plausible for the US to invade. For your expansion however, I recommend cuba starts the game Strict Nuetral with an army of one infantry.

Houston…we have a problem…
Ok…the map is compete! Finally! BUT…
I saved the file as psd first without layers and…its 1,24 Gb… Then I tried saving as other extensions and could only save as .tiff. The problem is it didnt compress much as its still a 925 Mb file…I cant save as .ai, the program I use doesnt have such extensions. The same with .png as the computer freezes while attempting…
Any ideas?

I had some problems with pando so I removed the files.
-
Already uploaded the map. Its in .psd (photoshop format)… download it here:
…
To download these files you need pando too, its very easy to install. Its the best choice I could do regarding the size of this map…Where is “here”? could you post a link to the download.
