Why? (filler.....)

And you're not as limited so you could also use special terrain on the map (assuming you can find a place to put it). I'm glad you explained it like this... I may have to reconsider getting and using some of these.

.... after all, when's the last time that you saw a giant (using a stealth ability) that was hiding behind a swingset... and nobody could SEE him????

LOCATION : You may add one Location to your starting force. You may add any number of the Location's different Bonuses to your starting force by paying their costs.

If you are the player that chooses the map and you chose the Location, you can use the Bonus(es) you paid for. If you didn't choose the map and didn't win the roll for first player, you instead can use the Consolation(s) associated with the Bonus(es) you paid for. (Otherwise there are no effects.)

SCORING: Your Location's Bonus(es) that you paid for are scored if you are defeated. (Whether you received the Bonus, the Consolation, or nothing.)

The points for the Location are only awarded to the opponent if you are defeated (ie; they win by actually eliminating your force, not by going to time).

This is not accounting for the ability to choose that the other player goes first if you win the roll. Overall, you should have the following:

Win Roll-Off, Choose Location - Get Bonus(es)
Win Roll-Off, Don't Choose Location - Get Nothing
Win Roll-Off, Choose other player goes first - Get Nothing
Lose Roll-Off, Given Map Choice, Choose Location - Get Bonus(es)
Lose Roll-Off, Given Map Choice, Don't Choose Location - Get Nothing
Lose Roll-Off, Not Given Map Choice - Get Consolation

They're in line with Location rules, so what sounds wrong?
