SOLUTION FOR TRAVELLING OVER THE POLES:
*The poles would NOT be on the map, you never see them, but they are there.
*When you move a unit towards the poles you'll be asked whether you want to or not, you choose.
*Let it be known that travelling over the poles is somewhat dangerous and could risk having your unit destroyed. It would be safer for Air and Sea units, but more dangerous for Land units.
How the computer would determine where you would end up after you cross of one of the poles:
Let's say you're on a LARGE map (75x120) and you cross of the North Pole at co-ordinates 0,0 (which on earth would be the Line of Greenwich) you would travel half of the way across the globe. Since the world is 75 squares across you would travel half that way over the map which is 37,0 (rounded down, and that would be earth's Int. Date Line). This would let the map stay the same with the new feature.
I hope that makes sense to everyone.
