Would it be hard to put settings like, "the amount of tower-damage"
or "the swarm cost" into the maps instead of the source code?
It would be easier to test for "optimal" values this way and
we wouldn't have to change old maps.  They could print the
settings before the game and the players would have to adapt.

Maps could even propose a handful of settings and one of it would be
chosen at random.

Actually having a page where you can get up to date and version
independent information about how much damage a
tower/warrior/explorer can do would be nice even with settings in the
source code.

Sounds good to me.
