There's a link to the code from the game, but here it is for anyone who missed it:

The mechanics are not clear to me, though I have never played a computer version of the game.
The visual design reminds me of the iOS game Strategery. I used to play it constantly.

The map has too few countries and the games are too short. Can you add some configuration to set the map size, perhaps small/medium/big is enough.
The maps are randomly generated. Sometimes they are small, sometimes they are large.
I just got map with 7 countries for 4 players. It's too small.
Thanks, Josh.

Simple but addictive.

I should really study the code to see how the AI works!
