If you would like to see where rivers classic and rivers bne physically differ then see my .gif attachment. For those of you who haven't spent much time playing either, the bne version in the gif has the 1:00 gold mine expansion. I recommend looking closely at the differences.

The biggest problem with classic rivers is it requires a 7-space hall if you drew the 10:00 start. There are plenty of others too though. It should also be noted that all 15 mines in the bne version are $30k each. With foc being 8 mines $50k each and hsc being 8 mines $75k each, rivers bne offers something very different.

I also attached a PudBrowser SS of bne.

Hi all,
I'm in for the tournament!
But I need to find two co-players...

You destroyed Classic Rivers!!! The whole point is to have hard expansions and not ready with no chop spots!
I can accept removing the wood that blocks the goldmines at the starting locations but not from the expos!
Expos must be HARD! Also changing so much the open land at each spot completely alters the map.

Cheerios all

As far as Rivers is concerned if both teams want to play that classic version then I will allow that too.

Hmm that could be the same for HSC and FOC and Spiral. I think it makes sense that the teams can choose among classic vs modified version.

i don't. have you thought about making your own map rotations and tournaments?

though i'd get a laugh when a player drew bottom left on spiral classic which is extremely likely. if rivers classic was chosen i'd get a laugh when a player drew 10:00 which would happen well over half the time in a 2v2.

I totally agree, that the 10:00 spot needs correction. But the rest of the map should remain as is.
The rivers you suggested is a completely different map which completely alters the concept of the map.

[Nedro]

i heard you. your idea of a HARD expansion is retaining the three tree chops at several exps except for top middle exp all from rivers classic. adds an extra 30s to expand each of those locations. i get it. you can always make your own thought-out version.

Hi all,

I'm looking for teammates for this tournament!

As XuRnT said we can be up to 3 people in order to solve possible lag problems.
Who wants to team up.

Cheers

Added the winning maps to the original post, and also put Beetle Island there for anyone who needs to d/l it.

[Nedro]

solid rotation. nice work X.
