I think it might be a neat idea to have a "map report" page that you could access for each map. This would be accessed from a button similar to the war report button, but on the map preview screen instead of the game map.

It could allow you to see (for example)

Percentage of games won by Blue
Percentage of games won by Red
Percentage of games won by each race.

You could even further break down these stats - like Percentage of games won by blue Khralean, percentage of games won by blue expert players (1800+ ?) vs red expert players etc.

Then it would be easier to see which maps are well balanced, which are lopsided, and which are simple traps for the unwary (there's nothing more unfun for a newbie than getting owned just by an unfair setup).

Maps which hit a certain threshold of % imbalance would be prime candidates for rebalancing. Perhaps they could even automatically give the disadvantaged player bonus credits (or bonus ranking points) to even things back up...

sounds like an interesting idea. if implemented, the scoring would have to be adjusted also so that the favored color/race would get less points if he wins, sort of like handicapping.

We should definitely run some stats on these maps and use that for rebalancing them if needed.
