@Beernuts:

Well, the map's not optimized for getting high scores ...

No idea why the iron apparently dissapears completely. You're positive it didn't turn up somewhere else? All my testing seems to indicate the resources always come back, as long as there's a valid tile to jump to.

 

[Beernuts1987]

There was one in America and then later in the game spain had one iron resource. Was that there from earlier in the game?

How do you make a map that small? Can you get mapsize down to 20x20 or 16x16 with Civ3Edit and no utillities?

 

[The Last Conformist]

@Beernuts: There are two iron resources - one in the Rockies, and one in the Himalayas.

@Suka: You need PTW or C3C. The Vanilla map is a "fake" - just the 16x16 are in a corner of an otherwise empty Tiny map.

Great map/mod.
I played several quick games, and they were very fun.


Suggestions to improve MiniMod

Upgrade mod to 1.22

* Electronics requirement removed from Motorized Transportation
* Radio Tech removed
* Civil Defense requires Electronics
* Advanced Flight now requires Electronics
* Radar Towers require Advanced Flight

Make Artillery and Radar Artillery have just range of 1.
Intercontinental land bombardments are just silly.

Decrease number of cities needed for army to 1 city (or maybe 2 to not get it abusive).
Otherwise it's pretty much impossible to get army in this game.

Also, making a "fake" bigger map should be done, since it looks that 16x16 maps have many graphic glitchs.

Upgrading to 1.22 is in the plans ... I just need actually come around to it! I'll probably add it to the existing DL, for the benefit of those who don't like 1.22.

Make Artillery and Radar Artillery have just range of 1.
Intercontinental land bombardments are just silly.

And Hexette in general is not?

Actually, you've got a point. I'll see if I implement it. Battleships shooting straight over Australia might also benefit from a rethink.

Also, making a "fake" bigger map should be done, since it looks that 16x16 maps have many graphic glitchs.

That should be easy to do for oneself - just import the "fake" map for the Vanilla version to a new file, and then import the rules from the C3C (or PTW) MiniMod.

When I get it, I'm gonna try to do 8 players. Call me crazy, but THAT would be fun!

Cool map mate! I'll download it ASAP!

And yeah... i know this is a very late reply...

 

[The Last Conformist]

All replies are appreciated!

Oh, and I´m reminded I still need do the 1.22 update.

I remember this wonderful map, i played a few games in C3C but those games never lasted more than a few minutes for an early conguest victory, Great map anyway.

 

[Nachos]

I love small maps! I'll play it immediatly!

 

[The Last Conformist]

I'm UL'ing a Conquests 1.22 version right now - it's now included in the hexette.biq.zip file.

 

[Hauptmann]

Wow, this is brilliant! (I guess...) Somebody should do 16x16 map of Europe.

 

[cidknee]

awesome map tlc, well by the looks of it. I cant wait to try it.
and on the notion of intercontinetial bombers, in real life we have them. B52, B2 etc etc

Someone did. I can't recall who ATM, but it's called "Really Little Europe" or something like that.

 

[Guardsman Kerby]

Even though before you start it should be over, I'll give it a go.

 

[The Last Conformist]

Do.

And tell me how it goes!

 

[josephstalin]

Interesting scenario. Excited to play.
