Obviously I don't intend for this to be used in Ladder play or get much use other than as a curiosity or challenge. The map is useless against AI because they don't sack ruins and won't attack the neutral cities unless they have fairly large stacks. The idea is to take your meager supply of allies and buff them with heroes. There are plenty of ruins, cities, and goldsites to allow for rapid XP gain. However, ambush is a threat in all but a few cities.
I'd appreciate it if some of you might inspect or even play a game on it, so that you can give me some feedback on how I might make the map a little more enjoyable/less frustrating.
I have a few ideas, but I'm not sure whether they're good or not:
Reduce the number of ambush units
Add neutral units outside of cities to increase XP gain
Add more ruins
Add more goldsites
Add more cities
Edit: This post is in the wrong place because I didn't realize there was a "Map Feedback" board. I won't make that mistake again.
