Hey folks. My name is Jon Adams. I'm a game designer living in Southern California. You may have seen me on Kickstarter. I'm really excited to tell you my game Cartography is doing well! kck.st/ZC9Fkg
This is my first game and I've been so amazed by the board game community! You guys are so encouraging and supportive!
Hope I see you around!
Jon
Cartography looks interesting.
I am working on a tile laying area majority game with triangular tiles called Great Lakes.
I looked over the rules and im confident we have not designed the same game. Mine has 2 different units to place (sailboats and cargo ships) each of which scores differently and there is no capturing but has a mechanism to move your own sailboats.
Good luck with your KS.
It’s very new and i don't have any pictures yet. I could take some this weekend. I have been meaning to do some more work on it.
I chose triangles because I like the topography it creates and for novelty.
Here is the prototype for Great Lakes

Hi Jon - welcome to BGDF. The game looks lovely BTW, and seems that you are pretty close to hitting your goal. Good luck!

Very cool! I know there are a few drawbacks to triangles. Why'd you choose them? I'd love to see it. Do you have a link?
