gerstein_goon's Balkans-Anatolia Map

Description
Adds a Huge-size map (128x80) of the Balkans and Anatolia, encompassing in part or in whole Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Albania, Greece, Serbia, Montenegro, Kosovo, North Macedonia, Bosnia, Croatia, Hungary, Moldova, and parts of Cyprus, Ukraine, Italy, Syria, Russia, and Georgia.

Please note: There are often issues after downloading map mods where the map file does not get placed into the right folder and is thus not visible in game set-up. Check your /MODS directory, and copy it into the /Maps directory.

A special thanks to Fiona for map styling advice, and Bantha for a quick guide on how to upload!

Happy to hear that! Enjoy!

I've made one map before, it was a nightmare hand placing the resources and play testing to balance it, I can see why no one ever hand places them. I also couldn't figure out how to upload it so it remained a map just for me. After that though, I largely stayed away, it just feels a little too user unfriendly to me. I did have success removing the spawn points though, I'm now happily conquering Croatia. =)

@Brids17 - I would highly recommend trying out WorldBuilder! It's not too hard of a learning curve, and if you want to get into making fun scenarios, it's a must-have. If this doesn't work, let me know via DMs - I'll make a version of the map without spawn points and send it to you.

Huh, I had no idea it worked like that, I have limited experience messing around with spawn locations on maps. It takes long enough to make them.

@Brids17, that's not how it works. If I remember these subtleties correctly, the game will try to fill up the spawn points in the order that it "sees" them as it generates the map, doing a whole horizontal row and then going to the next one. The one on Cyprus simply has the lowest X-position, and the human player is always player 1, so they go there. Again, you can remove these in about 5 minutes on the map editor.

Why would you set the player to always spawn in Cyprus?
gerstein_goon  [author] 13 May, 2021 @ 12:48pm 
@Brids17, there are pre-set spawn points in the map (you can see these light circles in the preview image above), but these can be removed through the map editor!

The map is bugged for me, it always spawns me in Cyprus, regardless of civ or start bias.

@sirnori, absolutely, you're welcome to use it. Appreciate the credit, enjoy! 🌞

Is it alright if I use this for a scenario? (I absolutely will credit you)
