After waking up and having a fresh look at this map again. I think the fancy border around the legends is to dark. I suggest lightening it...but other than that I am struggling to find anything else wrong with this map.

I think the last one looks the best. It also doesn't look as pixelated.

I agree. Would like to see the last one on the full map.

Nah I have to be honest...I still don't feel it. I prefer it when it was much lighter. Sorry.

Only a 10% difference? I'd prefer at least 15 or 20...

i would too, but i also prefer legibility and nicer, less cluttered images. i tried going for 800px wide, then bumped it up to 850 and still wasn't pleased. so i settled for 900px.

the guidelines say:

The 'large' map must be noticeably larger than the 'small' map; 9% larger is required but 33.3% (1/3) is recommended.

my large map is 11.11% larger than the small map so i'm within the guidelines.

f*ck your video

I don't recall anyone asking you to change your legends border to be dark...we asked that the pixalation be fixed

maybe i'm just missing something or just really stupid but what is the meaning of the different color in the names of regions?

there's no continent bonus now is there?

P.S. you should use assault instead of attack :-$

no continent bonus but the colours delimit the area of influence for each kingdom and thus the farm/lumber/mine bonus which i forgot to mention in the legend and i'll fix right away.

that's absurd. there's no copyright on attack. screw hasbro.

You should also underline/highlight the 'Double' part of the farm/lumber/mine bonus description?

Otherwise, this looks great.

I really really really don't like the dark glass DiM

. I feel it doesn't work on this map. Everything else is nicely saturated in colour...the glass just doesn't feel right. I much preferred the older...litter glass.`

sorry mate, you're in a minority here.
