The 3 Neutral guard spaces in front of the Stronghold can not be attacked unless you control at least one Rebel camp.

While Rjbeals leads to the Hidden Passage
Then Have the Threshold and the Hidden Passage lead into the center circle which is the Stronghold itself..

This might be out of left field... But some issues before from others was the concern about the victory condition being basically a race - all based on the Dice - little skill needed...
I'm not sure if I agree - but I have an idea that would fix this problem and change the whole dynamic of the board...
Have all players a PRESET starting Point and have PLAYER #1 start as the Stronghold.
So Player #1 will need to control all four Rebel Camps to win... Where as the rest of the players are all trying to get into the Stronghold to win... \
This way the Stronghold and it's defense is not a brainless neutral just waiting for the first player to capture it...
You can also make the Stronghold, Threshold, and Hidden Passage be a Bonus which player #1 starts with - to help balance out the fact that all the other players are targeting him....
Sort of a Lord of the Ring Feel - Where the Dark Lord is trying to claim all earth, while all the other players (Hobbits, Humans, Elves, Dwarves) have one major goal and that is to reach the Center of all evil where they can destroy the ring..
Now I not saying use a ring, or different races - just trying to get the idea across where Player #1 has a different Victory condition then the rest of the players - and all players are against Player #1 from winning..

A fdew things to check for me though in the mean time.
Font for region names. It looks to be in different sizes. Why? I don't think it's different sizes. I've used one size for all region names (excluding Stronghold), and two sizes in the legend (the white text is slightly larger than the yellow text, just to make it stand out more). Any particular region? Some letters in that font just look abnormally big, but I can go correct specific names manually.
Legend text - is going to be imposable to read when smaller. But again, it is an easy fix but again try to get the font size all the same for white and yellow texts. I may have to use a different font for the small map. And can remove the actual image frame for some extra pixels (like the difference between small and large images of the Ireland map). Will experiment later.
Region names are in bold. Give the names a glow to make those ones stand out more. I've been trying to stay away from using glow here, but I think you're right that a highlight on the all CAPS region names would work.
Lower the grunge opacity. The top left cannot be seen easily without squinting. I can probably do this with a layer mask.

It would be nice if the legend occupied that bottom corner and you could fit it into that area with a curved border rather than it being rectangular.

I can't wait to see where this map goes.
