They may end up that way, but as you can see from the first map, they are all still there very early in the game, it is very unlikely that they were all conquered at that point. City-states can be conquered or protected or traded with, I'm guessing that however they are handled by the major powers doesn't change how they look on the mini-map.

Why doesn't 2k post on our board?

I believe they have a grand total of 3 people covering the 2K boards and the Civ5 site. Presumably they feel they get more bang for their buck by posting at CFC.Originally posted by Hauldren Collider View PostWhy doesn't 2k post on our board? Comment

Lets face it CFC is the de facto official Civ site. I like it better that way though.
Their on topic is a lot "noisier" with all the kids posting the same things over and over again.

That's really minor improvement (even if there is one) compared with the ugliness of the map. I want my squares back!Originally posted by Elok View PostThe whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so

I want octagons.
Can't make a planar graph out of regular octagons.
I want hexes!
And you're getting hexes, is there an issue here?If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

What distortion? Plane can be covered with squares without any distortions. The units could move differently, if you want to have more accurate distance movement for the units. Diagonal move could be counted as 1.5.Originally posted by Hauldren Collider View PostYou WANT distortion? Foolishness
Plus, hexagons are not without distance problems as well. They are OK only in 6 directions.The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so

Distance distortion. The one you want to "go around" by introducing some arbitrary rules for diagonal movement (i.e. more distortion). The one you keep ignoring, or maybe failing to understand.Originally posted by MxM View PostSeriously. Kung freaking fu.Comment

I have said several times, that this problem would disappear if you count diagonal move as 1.5 distance - it is simpler and more accurate solution than going to hexagons, and still be on squares.Originally posted by Modo44 View PostThe whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so
