Looks good Seamus. It's come a long way.

This is the last call. This map will receive the gameplay stamp in 48 hours if no issues are brought up, so if you do have any issues, now is the time to make mention of them.

Not sure if anyone has said this yet or not, because I didn't read through all 10 pages lol...but I noticed a spelling mistake...

"Nephtali" should be "Naphtali"

Wow, great call Ahava. Not sure how I made that mistake. I'll have it corrected for the next update, which should include the small version, and is why it's taking so long to post.

Also, in the green bonus area -
"En Gedi" should be "Ein Gedi"

And you have 2 terits that are both named "Elon" one in the green Judah bonus area, and the other in the Western War Zone area.

There do appear to be a couple of grammatical changes, but that won't hold up the GP stamp being issued. Congrats Seamus...onwards and upwards!

by **Seamus76** on Wed Dec 12, 2012 11:02 am

Thanks so much! Working on all of those changes now.

My quick question of gramaticalness (is that a word? lol) The Jordan River... is often referred to as "the River Jordan" yes? Especially when referred to in the biblical sense.

Both are technically correct I guess, wikipedia says:

The Jordan River (American English) or River Jordan (British English)

At the end of the day it doesn't really matter to me that much. I do think it's a little funny that of the entire map this one almost insignificant lable has been one of the focal points of the comments recently. If that's the only graphicalness (lol) issue then I'm pretty happy with myself...insert back patting here. :lol:

Its just the first thing that popped out at me.... I'm sure I'll find more stuff when I run it though the ringer.

CURRENT UPDATE INFO - 2012-12-14:
This update includes the small version. I redid all of the text, bridges, borders, everything. The text for the terts is as small as I can go without the font looking like crap, and it's as large (and spaced) as much as it can without overlapping border lines and other names. This means some of the areas are tight, but there are no overlaps, except for a couple of the third 8's in the 888's.
- Corrected spelling mistakes.
- Changed the second Elon to Kerioth (Judah region), as per BluU's original suggestion.

Seamus, you still need to make the river Jordan and the sea of Galilee the same as the impassable rivers. Only have the Dead sea terts different, but all other water needs to be made the same. Right now, only the tributaries are impassable according to the legend.

The river between Ijon and Hazor you don't need as you have a bridge connecting them and Ijon and Kedesh already connect.

by **Seamus76** on Mon Dec 17, 2012 12:17 pm

CURRENT UPDATE INFO - 2012-12-17:
- Removed the river at Ijon.
- Updated the Jordan River and Sea of Galilee colors to be like all other impassable rivers. They are all now the same.

Seamus, I think the "Jordan River" text could use some kerning.
Maybe make it bold and move it in a way so it's not touching the edge of the river.

Good work

Same can be said on the river and bridge between Dibon and Heshbon

And another rename suggestion
Gath -> Jericho

And if you still want to use Gath you can switch Hadesha or Libnah to it.

Great job BTW
