β‘ How to Use
Quick Start: Simply select your desired number of players from the dropdown menu. For enhanced gameplay, check the Prophecy of Kings expansion box to include additional systems, wormholes, and strategic elements. If you want to recreate a specific map layout, enter a custom seed in the optional field.
Advanced Features: Once your map generates, click and drag any tile to swap positions with another - perfect for fine-tuning balance or accommodating specific player preferences. The toggle numbers feature switches between displaying tile names (for easy recognition) and numbers (for physical setup reference).
Pro Tips: Generate multiple maps before settling on one. Use the share feature to send your chosen layout to all players before game day. The download option creates a high-quality image perfect for printing or digital reference during play.
π― Strategy & Balance Tips
Strategic Balance: Optimal TI4 maps distribute high-value resource and influence systems evenly around the galaxy. Avoid clustering multiple 4+ resource systems in one area, and ensure each player has roughly equal access to valuable planets within their initial expansion range.
Wormhole Placement: Wormholes create dynamic strategic opportunities and should be positioned to provide meaningful but not overpowered shortcuts. Place them strategically to connect distant regions while maintaining balanced travel times for all players.
Anomaly Strategy: Gravity rifts, asteroid fields, and nebulae add tactical complexity. Position these near valuable systems to create interesting risk/reward decisions. Supernovas can serve as natural barriers that shape early-game expansion patterns and create unique strategic corridors.
