    Give me a few days.  I'll work on it in spurts.

    Ha. You'll have to roll 5's or higher on all three attack dice to win that one.  GL!

    ...otherwise, it might be prudent to give a nod to the Original Board designer in the board's description.

    I don't think he could complain about attribution like that!  I might get tired of seeing that huge varmint, though...

    What are the rules?  Bonus units per territory, number of fortifies, etc.

     

    Also...  I only know one person in the cards, and I'm guessing Davy Crockett is the Wild card.

    One trivial note:  I remember finding out the hard way that Galveston County (the easternmost county in the Orange 6 region)  and Chambers County (the center southernmost county in the bottom right Cyan 5 region) do touch each other, although if you want to change that, that's certainly up to you.

    I do not know and couldn't find out from WF what the names of each region are.

    I used the names from a Texas County Map.  I am not super confident in the borders I placed.  I'll get the rules updated.

    To add names to a card, on the designer page go to cards, then upload image underneath and change names in the upper left.

    I have them not touching, you think they should?  I think that black line isn't a part of the county, it goes most of the way down the coast.

    I think it doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things, but it was a bit of a surprise to the uninitiated. ;-)  

    Leave it not touching.  That's ok.  I appreciate this so much!

    Awesome, posting to the forums seems to be working again.  I had made an earlier list but it got lost when I tried to post it.  Sort of remade it in a hurry, but I think I might have missed a few this time around.  Also, not all these are definitive as some are a bit speculative.  Earlier I had listed the definitely missing borders versus the more speculative ones, but this time I just clumped them as missing only.

     

    Missing borders:

    Sam Patrico <-> Jim Wells

    Guadalupe <-> Wilson

    Guadalupe <-> Gonzales

    Angelina <-> Jasper

    Angelina <-> Houston

    Anderson <-> Leon

    Leon <-> Limestone

    Hood <-> Palo Pinto

    Crockett <-> Crane

    Kaufman <-> Dallas

    Smith <-> Rusk

    Cottle <-> Hall

     

    Also, the border you and camel are talking about, I don't think it is there either.  So, leave it out.

    *pedantic alert*

    OK, just to play devil's advocate, I looked up a map of Galveston County...

    aMpkPeK.jpg

    ...which clearly shows it running up the east stretch of land up under Chambers County.  There's even an state highway connecting them. :-)
