Greater China [Quenched] (thanks Widowmakers)

[Wisse]

Sorry to not mention this during the process, but I noticed that there are two adjacent territories that have very similar names: Shanxi and Shaanxi. Can anyone think of a different (but still accurate) name for either territory? It would prevent a lot of misdeployments.
Love the map wisse

what about henan and hunan, hubei and hebei those seems similair too, if someone would have better names tell me otherwise i can't change it

Indeed, that is somewhat problematic--I was attacking one when I thought I was actually attacking the other! But some of it comes down to reading the map better--but of course, if there is an alternate name...that'd be nice too.

The difference in a name by an extra 'a' isn't enough in my view... I misforted there the other day - I'm just glad it was unlimited forts.

I've accidentally autoattacked a heavily defended Shaanxi, instead of Shanxi... That really got me annoyed, I can tell you...

I've calmed down now, apologised to people in the game for making stupid mistakes, and vowed to pay more attention in future.

what do you mean?

and i don't have connection to the internet because there was a small thunderstorm here so i won't be able to connect to cc, but i can look at it sometimes at school

Yea, the similar names are starting to piss me off on this map. On top of the ones already mentioned, there is also Jiangsu and Jiangxi.

I'm well aware that I can be more careful... but I shouldn't have to look that closely just to make a turn.

edit: In the game I just lost because of a misdeploy, the game creator said he chose the map because of the similar names in order to get opponents to do exactly what I did.

[AndyDufresne]

It might be worthwhile to re-evaluate some of the names for the map, wisse.

Alternatively - it could be a simple XML change that could do it...

I.e. append the Continent name to the end of the territories.
