We're getting overloaded with these maps. i.e. the kinds with lines connecting the territs instead of actual territs. Honestly this is basically British Isles..just I think there are more terrts by looking at it (don't feel like counting).

All cities beginning with A give a bonus of 3 :lol:

Could you add some colour variation to the green.

Also might want to change the name. It is a bit of a misnomer, Kirkwall is not a city. Maybe 'British Isles Settlements' :D

Why don't you do something that has nothing to do with CC yet?

I'm not sure I'm keen on this either, but not for the same reasons as everyone else.

This would open the door for people to do a cities version of every geographical map we have and I'm not sure we want or need that. I wouldn't object to a cities version of a new geographic region we haven't done yet.

Also if your going to do this do it with real road/rail connections. I dont know if thats what you have done but glasgow for example is directly linked to carlise via the M74 motorway. and doesnt travel via edinburgh ( M8 )

I agree.....not really needed. Solar System is another one with lines connecting....and what's wrong with just playing British Isles?

But hey....don't let any of this negative feedback discourage you....you came up with an idea, and gave us a pretty good looking version of your idea. Perhaps just something different....

I like the idea... the map itself's a bit green... and a bit small...

sligo is a large town, not a city - Kikenny is a city though

and PLEASE do not not use the offensive form of the Derry name.

"Derry" is fine on its own Derrycolmcille and londonderry both cause offence to certain communities.

armagh, lisburn and newry are a lso classified as cities

:roll: Mabye if they wern't found offensive there wouldn't be these problems in ireland

Anywyay, its still a good point. Its always best to find a name which the people who live there call it.
