[Abandoned] - Europe 1099 - The 1st Crusade

eh, go back to the old 3, it's the 5 that needs fixing

I've quick fiddled with it, you'll have an easier time then I did with it and I didn't do much. I copied the middle of the 5 from the upright to half way down the middle of the loop. Then I pasted it 1 pixel lower and filled the extra pixel into the upright of the 5. It's a big difference.

Just a random thought really... How was the First Crusade known before there was a second one? Would it be appropriate to relabel

I think relabel would only confuse things. Since there is already a Third Crusade map with that name, rename this map makes no sense. Also I didn't find no references of how it was named before there was a second one. I think it's a minor issue and the Label is good as it is.

Thanks for the tip! I'll work on it as soon as possible!

Looking forward to your next update, we've talked about the 5's & 3's, so you've got my suggestion there. Couple other things, your mountains, recently mentioned by natty, I also agree they could use a little change, they just seem a bit too uniform. Give us a few in the same style that are a bit taller, or more craggy, and just mix them in the one you already have. A few of your territory names are awfully close together too, especially on the small map. Like Navarra and Gasconge, reordering the objects in that area is a good idea, 1 less mountain, move the territory circles a little bit here and there and that should clear up any problems that may arise. Give a good look to see if there isn't any other areas like this, Greece might have this going on too, and I'd reverse the position of the army circle and the territory name Dimashq. Oh, 1 last thing, what exactly is Mayurga? The name is sitting out in the middle of the Med not really connected to any territory I can see.

There has been no update since the last fortnightly review. If there is no update by the mapmaker by the next fortnightly review in roughly 2 weeks this map will be considered stalled and moved to the Recycling bin.

It's funny how Third Crusade was begun later and finished earlier.

C'mon, Beko, this is a quality map.

Meh, I think its being nitpicked to death. It's a great map and certainly beautiful, I really hope to see it move on.

It's really nice map.
But I think you can better change the name turk to Ottoman.
Because they where not there on that time!

A couple of small things that i noticed only now:

- With Garnata i think that you mean Granata or Granada
- The sea connections between England and Friesland could be refined a bit, because it looks a bit different from the others you have done, but is a few pixels thing that you should be able to fix in few minutes.

yes they were : The Seljuq Turks

The Ottoman Empire appeared in the 14th century, not being a part of this time frame.

[Moved]

It would appear that development of this map has stalled. If the mapmaker wants to continue with the map, then one of the Foundry Moderators will be able to help put the thread back into the Foundry system, after an update has been made. ;-)
