To answer your questions:

1. Take a screenshot of the website when it gives you the image. That way it shows both the army images and your map on top of each other in the exact way that it has on the website.
2. I say Bahama bonus should be 3. Hispanola 2. Venezuela bonus is perfect as is. Columbia ...

The following have interesting shapes (I looked and none of them are shown on the Developemenal atlas, so I'll post them here):

Angola
Dem. Rep. of Congo (Zaire)
The countries surrounding the Nile
Namibia
Land surrounding the Baltic (Germany, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Eur. Russia, Baltic ...

Split purple into two different continents, add a few more boundaries, and bonuses. Looking good.

To add to that, all you win in a tournament for winning is a well-earned congratulations. Maybe bragging rights.

Samus:
1. The US was like that because I wanted it to be the equivalent of Asia on Classic which has 12 territories, but five borders. So yes, if I keep it the way it was (which I'd like to do), then I will have to take some borders away. Also, I think 8 continents is a little too many. *shrug ...

1. Carribean changed a bit.
2. Amazonas split into Amazonas and Rio Negro to make 48 territories.

Spockers:
1. Yes, that's the Yukon River. And know it is no more.
2. What's confusing about the river seperating the US from Canada?
3. I'll see what I can do with the carribean on the next version.
4. Does Victoria look better now ...

[quote=Samus]You need to divide the US into two regions, west and east. Rocky Mountains and SW States plus everything west of that is one, everything to the east is the other.

You also need to divide Amazonia into two regions. Guyana ...

A problem: One of the rivers seperates the Pink continent off from the entire rest of the map. Would be hard to play that way.

-Un-pixelating inland waters
-A few ferry lines taken out
-Central America Borders slightly enhances
-"Unpassable" changed to impassable.
-Great Lakes edited!

I would get rid of at least one or two paths to the northern islands. If it's only going to be worth 2, then it should be easier to defend.

Also, US should be harder to defend from central america. - Perhaps split 'southwest states' into two?... or extent gulf states so it borders with Sierra ...

Using a dash symbol for the bonus key isn't good. It looks like a minus sign.

Alrighty. What do you think about this gradient then?

I don't like the idea of both the ports and the conenction lines.
I have to agree here. Just pick one type and stick with that. My preference would be to keep the sea routes and lose the ports. I think it's a lot easier to quickly identify what territories can attack each other.

When can we ...

Would you mind putting what a desert looks like in the key? I don't get what it looks like.

How is that any smaller than it usually is? Take a look at The Arctic Map and the North America Map. It actually seems to be bigger. However, I can make it bigger if wanted.

There's some good potential here.

I'm with Spockers on the airports. I'd much prefer sea routes over airports.

It's just me, but I'd really like to see this go in the direction of the New World. It would tie in well with having sea routes over airports as well.

Apart from that, you'll need to do ...

Okay, I will get rid of the airports.

Keyogi - Thanks for the positive feedback. You're saying 43 is a bad number because it's a prime number? How about 48 then? It's divisible by 2, 3, 4, and 6.

The reason the land and sea is the same texture is because I was going for a map drawn on parchment ...

Map is on the last page.

Territories: 48

An interesting point of this map is that I have included Alaska with the USA. It will make the US harder to take.
To do:
Compass
Better mountain and river graphics somehow.

Help list:
* I know the labels are crowded in Central America and the Carribean ...

Does anyone have anymore tips?
Find a good idea. That's usually the best place to start. :wink:
Keyogi, this is a good idea. I've been around the forum, and I've noticed you hate EVERYTHING that is not yours or someone you know! Post count or join time does not mean anything about skill.

Sure ...

qwert - 1. Well, judging by your location, I guess you'd know. But can you provide a map with the proper names. I figured the ones in my visuals were correct.
2-3. Mmkay, thanks for telling me.
4. I thought it was Slovenia, but something I saw called it Slavonia. I'll be sure to change it though.
5 ...

I thought of a new game play style. What if a certain player was assigned to take over a certain continent (by the beginning of a turn, not the end) to win the game.

Using Classic as an example, say that I was assigned to take over Africa. I might take it over in a few turns, but then another ...

You're right, it is bigger that way. What do you think of the new version ?

I fixed:
*"Upper Enns" and "Lower Enns" are actually called Upper Austria and Lower Austria. I fixed that on the map.
*Purple region shouldn't be as crowded now.
*North faces up, making the map a little bigger.
