	If you are making a map with super bonuses, you are likely to apply the same army-to-territory ratio as you have done in your other bonuses. For example, if you have all your bonuses where the army number is the number of territories times 0,75 (save extraordinary factors like placement or importance), you can't use the same ratio for the super bonus and the underlying bonuses. If you do so, it all adds up when someone has all of it to 1,5 times the number of territories.
