Seeing as how you have been pretty vocal about what the best competitive format lately, what do you think of these maps from a competitive standpoint?

Also +1 for a "choose map randomly" setting request

With Prelude on or off they are all amazing, but less balanced with Prelude on: the ocean and desert fights are epic in Elysium, Hellas is so wide open and engine heavy you can paint it anyway you want, Tharsis is so deep and complex you rarely make the absolute right move, Vastitas Borealis is so combo heavy you will have nightmare for days. You are asking a very big small question, there are long discussions on maps in hodgepodge's discord channel you should ask around and join. It's the only place for you to get better besides here, and you don't want opions and valuation just from me on this topic. Every single top players in the world are forged at that discord channel, most of them are too busy to be bothered here because we are doing 3p right now, once we have 2p arena you are going to see some real magic, hopefully.

choose map randomly is also a good idea, but I meant to have a map that each tiles are randomly generated but according to the flavors of each default map, MS and Awards are also randomly generated with limit on synergies. The god father himself ChesterDeBester has far more knowledge on that topic than me, I will ask him to contact the developers now I think about it. You can learn more about MS Award synergies here: https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/202354 ... -for-rando

Play around and have fun with it.

Reminder - as much as it is easier to post bugs on forum, please send a bug report instead
Developers (i.e. myself) usually don't read forums.
Thank you for those who deleted the post and reported them properly. I fixed most of minor typos in maps and swapped award images.
If you reporing bug about map hexes please use co-ordinates shown in tooltip (or game log).
Reports with title "game is broken" is not helpful when talking about specific hex on specific map for example.
Please include map name in title for new bugs related to the maps.
Thank you for testing, much appreciated!

Thanks for the reminder. I'll report and delete mine on Monday when I have access to a computer which makes it easier for me to do this.

How does the politician bonus hex work on Vastitas Borealis without the Turmoil expansion implemented?

Is it just decoration?

Yes since there is no Turmoil its not implemented. The vikings on map just a site on landing, not triggering anyting.
