It will be harder to make a map for 5 people then it is for 4. I am not sure how to do that without compensating balance.

This is the base if we are going to play with 5 imo.
![]() 6.36KB All players have 2 opponents nearby and 2 a little further away. Many variations are possible. - Exactly mimic the pentragram and put lands in the triangles. - Same with inner cross sections connected. - Cores around the tips of the star and landbridges connecting those. - Etc. Lux resources are the main thing to be balanced next. This could be a scheme like everybody having the same 3 base luxes and and an exclusive lux for trading, but other schemes are possible as well. Last game at Stapels we all knew what the minimap looked like but didn't know resource distribution. So my suggestion is we make the 5-player map ourselves (majority of the work) and find one of our CDZ fellows to put the resources in place. By that everybody starts with the same mapinfo.

Good suggestion with the pentagram! I would like to add to that the wish to let the east-west edges of the map (and north-south would be even better) be near by so that the far away neighbours are still close to you through the cilinder effect. Put some small islands (or almost islands) in between with some interesting terrain/resources and there is an even better playground

Looks like a pretty evil session ahead of you folks
![]() That reminds me. I wanted to draw a pentagram when I was a child. Didnt know exactly how, so I started drawing what I thought it would be like. It ended up as a "David's star". Coincidence? (the above message not being meant to look anti-semittic btw. Sorry if I offend you)

12/13 is not possible for me. 26/27 is acceptable but not that good either.

13th is my birthday and I have family over. Not nice for them if I am in Breda or Utrecht then ...
I have to check with my agenda, who is again doing Jiu-Jitsu tonight, if I am available the 26-27 weekend.

Ok, we'll postpone it one week then to 26/27. I would say sorry again for the delay, but just checked and I already did that twice, so I won't anymore
