EDIT: A new version of the map has been released. It appears that connections, names, and bonus territories have been corrected. The bonus sizes remain the same, however, as do the tiny territories.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Despite the obvious faults, the map has proven highly entertaining time and time again, as all players have equal access to the map's strengths and weaknesses and the sheer size of the map lends to a large number of players. Familiarity with the imbalances themselves becomes as essential as knowing the terrain in war, and newcomers are often left begging for re-inforcements without so much as a "Sorry, y'all."

Make sure if you play this map, AI's will surrender to last human.

My favorite. I would like to see a similar breakdown for the World map.

While very good for such a huge map, there are two major flaws. First, Virginia's mini-counties are incredibly annoying. Second, the map bonuses being focused around number of counties, not population, creates some odd dynamics.

Very good map for long team games. Although unbalanced and a bit overdone on the micromanagement side in Virginia.

Love the map, It's huge which makes is long and quite challenging. It takes awhile to actually complete in one setting, but it can be done if you have people with the time, or many players. I think this is perfect for a huge amount of people playing.

This map is fun and balanced (sort of), but is way too big and can take forever to play. Some territories also are unnamed or are missing connections, or are too small to put a number of armies in. This map is great from anyware from 1v1's to 12v12's, 26 player FFA's, ect. If you have plenty of time, this map is for you, otherwise, don't play this one. If you have the time though, by all means, play on this map. It can be incredably fun.

it's made for a long game, other then all the territories being square it's fun, but i think a few added defensive positions or choke points would make it more interesting

It's a Monster! Starts a little slow, as the territories to gain additional armies are rather large, and some of the divisions are a bit unnatural- Montana would geographically divide between east and west rather than north and south, for instance, but overall, a lot of fun if you have the time. Not for the faint of heart!

The map is a little too involved to play a game in one sitting, especially if you're pressed for time. It would be much better in a multi-day format.

This map is grat although it has one major flaw. You need to have a lot of time to play on it. I hate when people like 'dotdotdot' (as a mather of fact member with 1000 games) boot you after almost 2 hours of playing without chat message or anything when you take your turn 10 seconds longer then direct boot (5 min). To be honest from my 7% boot rate, 1/4 is from this map because of loosing and frustrated opponents. So generally, this map is awesome to play but with few conditions. Direct boot time has to be min. 8 min. However it depends on territory limit per player and initial armies - the more of it, the more time players will need. But even though, you need to remember that every next round will take more time, so dont boot players just because you are loosing. Just write a message on chat that you gonna boot if player x is gonna take his turn longer then direct. Thats fair enought imho. This simple rule is still being forgotten by warlight players.

Brilliant map, although some of the Western territories are too big in comparison to the Eastern ones, but otherwise a very good map!

Just a heads up; You currently have two Lycoming counties in Pennsylvania. I believe the western most "lycoming" should be Clinton county. I dont know Penn that well though, so I could be wrong

It's HUGE! So you have to zoom in to see some detail., but it's a realistic war map design.

This is a BIG map. But, I do enjoy playing this map, simply because it's an inviting map for a big game. I have seen maps with whole states as the territories, though for mid sized US map, I definitely would like to see the states divided up into their regions and use the county borders as their borders. This would provide a good in between map for users.

Just too large, AI has a distinct advantage late game, and when annoying people like my opponent decide to keep playing despite having already lost, the games goes on for hours. At first was fun but overall became very unenjoyable

Good map however a word of advice if you play it turn on multi attack and increase starting army size unless you want a five hour game
4 out of 9 people found this review helpful.
The number of territories and army sizes are too big. each turn would take 30-45 minutes to complete by mid-game. I could not even imagine end-game for this map

Theres no strategy on this map, no chokepoints, etc. The winner is determined solely by how well a player knows how to make their initial distribution for maximum bonuses in the beginning. The game is basically won in the first few rounds.

My favorite map. However, I noticed that the county of Jackson needs to be added to the Southern West Virginia bonus. Right now it's only in the Virginia bonus.

It is a great but it' to big unless you paly with 12 players it get sboring after a while

The bonuses are too large for my preferances, and breaking a bonus is too much of a swing strategically.

Review by Gnomad on 06/18/2012.
game is too large for someone to jump in to for his first game. pace is too fast. results (boot) are too extreme. At a guess, I'd say the winner is decided as being the very last player to get booted.
