Map Poll: Landmass Layout

[Lord Parkin]

Cast your vote for your preferred landmass layout out of the options we've discussed; or just vote to leave it up to the map makers.

You can vote for as many or as few options as you like. Consider a vote for "leave it to the map makers" as being "any of the above".

 

[Lord Parkin]

Don't forget to vote for the other map options too!

- Should we play on a smaller map or a larger one, and how much sea should we have? Vote here!

- Should everyone start on the same continent, or should there be at least two continents, or should everyone have their own island? Vote here!

- Should there be bonus islands that people can settle via coast or ocean, or not? Vote here!

Everyone should be able to contact at least one other team before optics. Apart from that, all up the the map maker.

Do we have a tech trading result? My vote depends on that setting.

 

[Lord Parkin]

So far two team votes have come in with "Normal". If we have just one of the four other teams voting for "Normal", then that's what we'll be sticking with. So that's my bet.

I voted 'Leave it up to the mapmakers'. I enjoy the thought of not knowing.

Posted in the official thread.

Team Sirius votes for:

- Standard or larger map, sea level adjusted accordingly for six teams
- Contact between all teams should be possible via land or coast, but NOT ocean
- Our preference is in the direction of a continents/islands setup rather than pangaea
- We think it would be a good idea to have at least some initially uninhabited islands (something the last map lacked)
- Overall though we vote for the mapmaker's choice as to the layout
