some quick thoughts..
care
visualize
never forget that player wants fun ,but having to fight for power, not been given for free..so neither very poor nor very rich map
balance between heros power - creatures power
e.g if 2lev 10 heroes at end game,having 2 lev4's is too lil...that may happen if enough exp but few mony on map OR it has many exp boxes
DONT place more than 2-3 exp boxes unguarded around town OR if you do dont place em in main heroes route.so if player wants free exp,make him pay with movement loss
THAT^^ also helps cut off might's early boost
make players gather their strength by many details rather than few big treasures..also,dont overload neutral areas and oracle treasures
make open or semi-open maps..with more than 5 days distance between main towns..interactive is more fun + toh is in need of good open maps
DONT put chicken in maps!dear lord lol
kekke..kekeeee!
