Jotting this down while it's in my head.

Taking inspiration from Glimmervoid, this is a multiland playing up the enemy-colour theme that seems to be gaining traction in my mind.

Is this too good? You can play and use it first turn if you've got a white one-drop, but you won't always. Late-game, it's mostly drawback-free but can leave you open to a nasty LD side-effect of a normal removal spell.

It's a minor shame that the 4-colour theorem means I can't, easily, arrange my geography so that each member of the cycle would be a "three counties point"...

Interesting! As you say, given Glimmervoid, it may be okay.

And as for geography... hmm. I don't see why a country has to be contiguous... consider Alaska or Gibraltar.

True, true. It's quite hard to work out how to do it even with disconnected geography, though!

One thing, though: I fear this is rather more of a rare design than an uncommon.

Not necessarily a problem. Most sets have either a cycle of Uncommon lands or a cycle of Rare lands. I picked Uncommon pretty much at random, so I could easily swap for Rare.

Geographically, this is do-able with a single exclave. Beware - ASCII art.

+--------+---------+
|   B    |     R   |
|        |         |
|   +----+----+    |
|   |    W    |    |
| +-+         +----+
| | |  +---+  |    |
| | |  | R |  |    |
| | +--+-+-+--+    |
| |  G   |         |
| +------+     U   |
|        |         |
+--------+---------+

You can also do it without an exclave - extend R down the RHS of U (as B does with G), and have a 4-way join of BRGU. That puts two of the 3-colour joins in the same place, though!
