Posted: Wed Feb 21, 2007 2:41 pmthe mountains look like they stack on top of each other...mabey less mointains in the ranges?
too many continent bonuses
Posted: Wed Feb 21, 2007 3:56 pmi think there are way too many continent bonuses.....maybe merge two small ones next to each other into one
Posted: Wed Feb 21, 2007 4:09 pmi think the contenents r fine
Posted: Wed Feb 21, 2007 8:50 pmIve adjusted the circles and the mountains a bit.

Posted: Sat Feb 24, 2007 3:48 pmwhat about the basques
Posted: Sat Feb 24, 2007 4:10 pmI merged the 3 contries of Basque Country and named it after their largest province, Vizcaya.

Posted: Tue Feb 27, 2007 4:23 pmwell, im working on the xml right now
Posted: Sat Mar 03, 2007 12:48 pmIve finished coding the small version, working on the large.
Posted: Sat Mar 03, 2007 6:11 pmlooks awesome man
Posted: Sat Mar 03, 2007 6:44 pmwhere the hell did this map come from? I must have missed the first 10 pages. Sweet map though - just the way I like them. Simple, Direct & Fun.
Posted: Sat Mar 03, 2007 7:12 pmThis map is the most balanced map here...
I will love to play...
The state of art playability came from having small continets on the sides and big continets on the center.
Why isn't in Final Forge?
This map looks ready to play for me.

Posted: Sun Mar 04, 2007 3:51 ammayby you can give the rivers the same texture as the sea?
Posted: Sun Mar 04, 2007 6:11 amThis map is looking good, I just have 1 complaint. The Rivers look a little fake. Perhaps you should try to change the texture
Posted: Sun Mar 04, 2007 6:26 amThis map is looking sound as far as playability. I agree with DIRESTRAITS about the rivers, although I think it has more to do with the width of them and the fact they dont seem to meet the ocean as they should. I'm not really a fan of the mountains either. Could you perhaps create a few different templates and at least mix it up a bit?
Onto textures. I like the ocean, very nice. I think you should tone down the continent textures though and increase the non-playable areas texture. I'd look into a different approach to colouring the mountains as well, I don't think that texture is doing you any favours there.
At a quick glance the numbers seem centred. I'm wondering if your territory lines are fixed however. If you could give some a bit more room or move some text and shadows around it might look a bit cleaner. For example, Lisboa... if you move the label down and over the edge of the territory you could probably get that shadow in and create more space between it and Leiria. Barcelona is another example and the majority of territories in Galicia could be rearranged with text and shadow placement to make it look neater.

Posted: Sun Mar 04, 2007 9:50 amHappy to see how this map improved a lot.
Sorry if I point something already commented. I didnt read all.
1) La Mancha bonus is too high. It could be 5, maybe 6, but not 7. In fact, wouldnt be La Mancha a better name to the region?
2) I think Castilla y Leon should have one less border, maybe block Asturias... Or, maybe a better option:
- Block Madrid to Segovia.
- Open Segovia to Guadalajara.
- Open Segovia to Teruel and Zaragoza.
- Remove Zaragoza to Soria.
3) Other minor things:
- Move Andorra name, maybe? Castellón too. Maybe La Coruña and Pontevedra.
- Adjust Galícia and Aragón colours in the legend. Same to La Mancha.
- If Im not wrong, Trás os Montes should have hyfen, like Trás-os-Montes... Im not sure about this, we need a portuguese to tell us.
Are there decorative images on your plans? I think the map looks sad without even a flag.

Posted: Sun Mar 04, 2007 10:04 amCan Granada attack Murcea? If I get my magnifying glass out, it kinda looks like it -- yeah, I am trying to find holes in this map and I'm not finding many - looks great - even better than Arctic, BedSpiler (see, I can't spell either!) 
Posted: Sun Mar 04, 2007 12:32 pmno it cant, i mentioned it earlyer so he moved the mountains 2 block it.
Posted: Sun Mar 04, 2007 12:45 pmlooking better...
Id work on the mountains and rivers. also, looking at it kinda hurts my eyes, and im not exactly sure why. I think the ocean and the blur around the continent is so bright in comparison to the muted/dark colors of the continents that it is like looking into a bright light or something....
anyone else feel this way? Id mute the brightness of the sea, or brighten the continents.
