Ring of Fire for Visa (124x82)

[Bastian-Bux]

This map is a cut from Genghis Kais Giant earth map. Its only half the size, and includes only the "surroundings" of the Pazific ocean. From Siberia, Tibet and Indochina in the west to the Americas in the east, and Australia in the south.

I added 14 of the 15 ViSa resources (excluding Coffee) though sparsely. Suggestions whee to improve this are highly welcome.

The map comes in two versions: RoF13 and RoF18, the later including also the 5 "colony nations" (America, Australia, Brasilia, Canada and Vietnam, due to its modern leader), while the first only includes "old nations".

This map is a "work in process" as it is mainly intended as a map for the upcoming ViSa 3.0 which should include the Genetic era, and thus will benefit most from a very ocean heavy map.

Changes to the last version:

Spoiler :

- Aborigine starting position changed to Northern Australia, where they immigrated from, and to give the Australians a better starting position
- Chinas starting position changed to Nanking, to give Tibet a better starting chance and for historical reasons
- Iroquois starting position changed 1 tile to the west, to make space for Canada
- Added America, Australia, Brazil, Canada and Vietnam to the RoF 18 version

Planed for the next versions:

Spoiler :

- improve the resource layout following input by players
- many more ocean resources, including the genetic era specific ones

EDIT: uploaded new version 0.04 that doesn't include my stupid error (forgetting to delete all preset units).

What about an "ancient world" cutting map ? Can you post screenshots...

With only ancient civs like Rome, Carthage, Assyria, Babylonia, Sumeria, Celtia, Britania, Khemet, Nubia, Israel, Greece, Hattis, Phenicia, Germania already 14 Civs !

Should add Persia, Berbers, Iberia...

I would like an ancient world map with all ressources of Visa 2.10...

Can you make it ?

And post a screen shot please !

My focus would like as for the fun not the realism

Bastian, could I delegate you for making all the ViSa version of the Giant Earth Map regional cutout requests? I am busy with all my other plans (such as World History Series, intergration with EWR and CivGold etc) already and so I won't have time to intergrate my map with ViSa.

thanks!

OK Genghis, no problem. Though I'll only do mapwork, meaning no new civs.

About that ancient world map:

I'll make two maps:

- the ViSa old map (basically Genghis old map plus resources)
- the "classic" theater, Europe, northern Africa and Asia till the indian border

Will take some time though.

Anyway, I need input about the placement of the resources.
