Stone Dragon

Thank you very much for such a detailed review.

I played on this map and, to be honest, the map is quite slow in terms of movement, despite the fact that the beginning is quite challenging, although as I understand it, almost everything here is random, so it's okay, I even liked it.

Yes, I use a lot of randomness in my maps. I do this so that when you play the map again, everything changes. First, I usually play my own maps several times. And if someone wants to play the map a second time, they can start with a different faction from a different starting point, and everything on the map will change.

I don't know what the story about the giant dragon is about, because it's quite small if you look at it that way.

The scale of the map itself is small. Would you like me to put a dragon figure all over the map, and where would you play then? And if we go by the exaggerated scales that are accepted in the game, then, let's say, the dragon's head will be larger than the city model in the game. From this point of view, the dragon is not that small.

I'm not complaining about the map design, it's more or less good, but I would like fewer flourishes in the form of spirals, and more roads, because again, it takes quite a long time to run back and forth, although the bot didn't catch me off guard. Therefore, you can't quickly complete the game on this map without a walkthrough.

Yes, logistics are needed on my maps because I usually make the distance between cities quite large. I don't really like it when the distance between cities on the map is 2-3 days' journey, because playing on such maps often turns into an endless game of taking cities from each other.

In the end, I'll say that playing with a buffed AI on such a map was generally fun. Good job. 👍

I'm glad you liked it.
