Map altering

[Zhukov_2003]

Has any one ever altered their map? I have a good link to change your map to make it more ‘‘stratigically interesting’’

I know the guy who runs the site personally(he lives in my town) so if you have any questions post them and i will ask him.

Another website which has some interesting map changes (and some other ideas as well) is:

Of course, it does require taking a magic marker to your board, but I think it could be worth it.

A great way to do it is to make your own map. Throw different size coins on a large white cardboard sheet. Quarters are capitals, pennies are small territories, and so forth. Randomply flipping the coins should also produce areas of higher and lower coin concentration; ie., land and sea zones. Take a marker and make different colors to differ land and sea.

To start the game have players choose territories and capitals. Suggested to me by a friend, this keeps the strategy fresh and makes for a lot of fun. Territories can be creatively named by each conqueror.

I’m assuming the “Cardboard Sheet” is the Board drawn out….
