Board: [Feature Requests](https://blockadebrigade.com/discuss/requests)
Status: Added

Status: Done in 0.1.8.10

Requested: Oct 20, 2026
Done: Oct 20, 2026 in 0.1.8.10

Request: Map leaderboards should be fair. A player with every tower researched should not share a board with someone just starting.

Why: A map code only fixed the ground, so research, starting gold and lucky cards decided too much.

What was built: Every shared map now has two boards. Owner's Rules is the main one: everyone plays with the same towers, research, gold, lives and rerolls, set by the map's owner (the first player to reach wave 5 on it). Everyone also gets the same end-of-wave cards on the same wave, and the same cards after each reroll. Unlocked is the second board, for playing with everything you have researched. Starting a map asks which board you want. Map pages show both boards, who set the rules, the research each score used, and the card each player picked every wave.
