[QUOTE=Hoche]Will the comp game have a map editor to allow people currently involved in pbem games to set them up in the comp game when it comes out?[/QUOTE]

This question was asked a few times in different forms, so consider this your responses as well, those that asked.

There will 'probably' not be any map editing because of the mere size of the map (approx 45-50MB). The map is cut into individual elements (or quads) and is maintained by the program. The province areas are drawn onto the map and then we trace the borders and make an area. This process would be difficult to allow the user to edit since editing the BMP would only be half the puzzle.

NOW that being said, it is possible and likely, depending upon response, that we will release our own variant maps in the future.

I hope that answers your questions.
