I would suggest putting both garrisons into the map a few sectors. It would open a lot of tactical possibilities on the flanks.

with every secotor conected to every other secotr there would be so many alephs in each secotr that you'd just jump from one to another with no controll over it.

but it might be interesting if you made them all 1% sig. just so that people that fly in circles becone usefull now /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" />


i really like that absurdly huge map idea, and if we get players shifting on it it could be run for months.

a few well placed teles on each side can make things much more dinamic. 20-30 minutes till the first contact could show as a major turn-off for most pilots.

I would suggest adding a spec mine for each team, as a map that size even on big game a miner would probably have to mine out 3 sectors for a full load.

Actually what would be ideal is to up the drone limits in the core. 8 Miners and 2 of each constructor would be a nice way to start and get things expanding fast in the early game.

I tried joining the DN server with two clients, joined both teams and launched a 30 mins game.

I was meaning to make screenies at the One Minute Remains mark, when combining the two maps would have gave me a fairly complete situation.

Of course, I pinged away with both clients at minute 15.

EDIT: Yes, I was going to try and see how much of the map I could scout in 30 mins.
