K I've finished the beta version of my map, Civilizations Dawn 2. Civilizations Dawn 2 is a Build an army and blow shit up type game that takes place in the future with several features that have not been used much in other maps. First of all, you must pay your army, and you can adjust the amount that you pay them. More payment results in being able to support more troops, but it takes more money. Second, you must feed your populace, so you can't just wtf house spam. Third, depending on the social structures you build and on the amount of rations you feed your people, your people will generate an approval rating. The higher this is, the more money you make, and if it falls below a certain amount, your people will rebel. If it falls to low, you lose the game. Also there might be a bug in the income, it worked in single player but it didn't work in multiplayer, but I think I fixed it. Please report any errors, and if units seem imba please report on how imba they seem, and of course report any bugs you find. I can't post screenies as I have no effective way of testing this map since I can't host, and since the games never really developed, and because I don't have a photosharing account.

I played it a little.

Liked

Economy ideas.
Bank.
Technologies.

Disliked

Multiboard - needs work. It's pretty useless right now.
Orbit for ships - It's just a teleportation system with frills. I didn't really like it because it's just movement across the map instantly.
Build setup - I felt like your technologies and builds were kind of spread out and unorganized. It would be nice if you explained it better.

Summary

It has potential. I don't think it would be very interesting in its current state, but some of the staples for a good game are there.

How should i fix the build setup?
EDIT: New version released with multiboard cleaned up more according to Ghan's instruction and fixed orbit exiting, making it more balanced. Thanks for the help Ghan!
