"Ogygia (Greek: į½ØĪ³Ļ Ī³ĪÆĪ· or į½ØĪ³Ļ Ī³ĪÆĪ±), is an island mentioned in Homer's Odyssey book V as the home of the nymph Calypso, the daughter of the Titan Atlas, also known as Atlantis (ĪĻĪ»Ī±Ī½ĻĪÆĻ[1]) in ancient Greek. Calypso detained Odysseus on Ogygia for seven years and kept him from returning to his home of Ithaca. Athena complained about Calypso's actions to Zeus, who sent the messenger Hermes to Ogygia to order Calypso release Odysseus. Calypso finally allowed Odysseus to build a small raft and depart the island."
I can't see where your map which is expansive in scope can really fit on this minor island which is essentially a footnote in greek myth.

I thought about bringing that up that too, but decided Ehhh, it's a fantasy map.
I agree that something needs to be done about the Mt. Dubbitt territory. Maybe even that whole space. Seems easy enough to hold.
I love the Idea of re-naming Hells Manor! Persephone's Manor is a pretty good name, and includes another recognizable mythic figure on the map! Brilliant!
But, Here's my new thought on Posideon. Since you already have Hades in Hells Arena, Why not just replace the Hydra with Posideon? Rather than having one God floating around out there... And then just bumping Dionysus up to Heaven?
This map has just reached "important" status for me.

Well i needed an island with fabled creature if you know any other island or get a good name for an island/world then feel free to post it here. Cause at this spot i got none ideas.
This is a fantasy map based on greek mythology. Now i know some1 make a more realistic one about troy. And im not trying to make it as realistic as that.
Also were working on makeing the map more into the Theme of Calypso island (Exsample: Rafts one way attack to Titans Prison) Mt Odysseus is placed. (Calypse will have a terriorie as i mentioned) and some other things.
So alot of greek mytholgy from every corner is in this map. And alot of fantasy=)

You should call it Mythic Realms or something.... anything is better than what you have now. Its like making a desert map and calling "World of Hawaii" or something. I would stay away from place names. Fantasy is one thing, but gross inaccuracy is something entirely different.

2) Arena of H. and hades are to cramped together
3) The bridges are very pixely at the circle ends and occassionally the sides
4) what the heck is the red line for? it seems to me to have no purpose... and its not even red! lol its a weird color
5) Also, arena of courage and mi--taur are to cramped together
6) you can hardly read the N and O in minotaur, so it looks like mi--taur
7) Theres not enough room for armies on bernar wood
many territory names spill over borders into other territories
9) some territories (turmanian woods, woodland shrine, dredjav jungle etc) will most likely be to small to fit army numbers on the small versions
10) you can hardly read any of the names in olympus
11) you cant read most of the names in the arenas
12) Keep up the good work =D

I'll tell gimil about the next update if you don't. I'm excited to see this move forward.

ANDROIDZ!
So the name may yet change? You should probably name it JUAN RULES!
Are there other mythological names in mind?
