Rules clearly show a minimum bonus of 3, but players are complaining of not receiving it.

Looks like the minimum is implemented as a minimum territory bonus, but your negative bonuses are overwhelming it. The +- thing is just because he "gets" negative 3 or however many. That particular foible is merely a display issue, not calculation.

Like your grandpa, but angrier.It would be great if the "minimum bonus" setting made a hard line that nothing could drag your bonus below. Leave in the option to set that line as a negative, as I can see some interesting gameplay options there.

Risky's kinda-a-big-deal-ness was so massive it spilled over, so I'm handling the excess here.

Yes please, I can do some cool stuff with that.
Also, I'd like to see negative numbers in the card scale.
Plus, I want a way that you could (through negative bonuses, or cards) receive negative troops and therefore have to remove troops instead of place them on your turn.

As correctly surmised above by asm, the minimum bonus value applies to the territory bonus calculation only, then it is added to the total bonus as follows:
total_bonus = territory_bonus + continent_bonus
There is then a check to ensure the total_bonus never goes below zero.
I could quite easily change this calculation so that the minimum bonus value applies to the total_bonus value, I'm trying to think if there are any boards out there (esp. ones already Live on WarGear) where this would cause a problem, anyone have any thoughts on this?

But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger." Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests.
Is this resolved? I'm getting a +-2 Total in this game http://www.wargear.net/games/player/5611 when the Min is set at 3, so I'm really getting 0. I'll wait to take my turn (although I don't really care if I get the 3 or not since it's a Dev game).

This has been partially resolved - the continent bonus is now set so that it can never be less than zero in the game engine and on the game view page. It still displays incorrectly in the Player pending the update that I'm working on going live.

So should this be fixed with the last update? In this game http://www.wargear.net/games/player/6742 Krock has a -2 territory and the Flash Player displays he is only getting a +1 bonus when the Min is set to +3. The Total on the Game info page displays 3, and I believe he received the +3 last turn.

Should be correct now thanks Yertle.
