Why is El Dorado below Sacramento?

I live north of sacramento and south of el dorado....This would be impossible if California was laid out the way that you have it...Can you please fix this, it's very offensive to me that you have el dorado below sacramento

Lol yeah I'll fix it. An honest mistake. Please don't be "offended" by a silly accident. Jeez

As a Native Californian I love the map. However I must point out the Napa Valley/County is mislabeled. What you have there is Sonoma county. Napa Valley/county is the east of Sonoma County.
Hope that before this leaves this point someone take a look at. I live in Sonoma valley and The Napa valley does not extend to the ocean or hit Mendocino county. Here is a link to an appropriate map. http://geology.com/state-map/maps/calif ... ty-map.gif
Thanks for all the hard work!

Well I wasn't really going off of counties when I did this. More just cities and geographical zones. I was aware that Napa isn't doesn't extend as far west as pictured, that was just a fib that some other Cali native said would be fine just to fit Nappa in somewhere.

However if that really does mess things up I suppose we could scrap Richmond rename in Napa and move mendicino down. I'm not sure what I'd call what was Mendicino then, but I'm sure I could find something. What do you think of that Tokugawa?

Just had a thought... What about labeling Napa valley...The Wine country? I see that you did that with the gold country. Could be cool instead of getting into adding Sonoma Valley.

Just starting to play this, so no real comment on the play. However, its rather strange to see both Santa Barbara and then Ventura as completely separate areas. You really need something like maybe cabrillo..or, instead, to move Santa Barbara up and put something else.. maybe Pismo Beach, maybe San Louis Obispo closer to Monterey.

judging by how things are going I feel that that is liable to offend Californians from other parts of the state who would insist that the best wine comes from their region.

I wished it didn't say Cali. Nothing says "not from California" than "Cali".

What about "Fornia"?

So true...

What I'm wondering is why the Hollywood Sign font was used for the entire LA Metro area breakout. You could hit the Hollywood Sign with a nuke and the people in Santa Ana wouldn't even get a suntan.

And some of the text, especially the breakout labels, look a bit jagged.

Some comments:
1) Simple solution to the "Cali" issue: Just change that region/bonus label to "Northern Calif."

2) I agree with the Sacramento/El Dorado corrections as mentioned earlier.

3) "Pismo Beach" (instead of "Morro Bay") would be a good name for that Central Coast territory.

4) I grew up in beautiful San Diego, with its year-round mild Mediterranean climate -- so I hate to see it included as part of the "Mojave Desert"...but I guess I'll have to get used to it.

5) I would still like to see Santa Catalina Island added toward the southeast as part of the "Channel Islands" territory on the map, with a sea route to Santa Ana in the LA region. Catalina is the only Channel island with a substantial population and a town (Avalon) and it's a major tourist attraction.

Strategically speaking, LA region has a big bonus of 5 and only three bordering territories in two regions, so a sea connection to Channel Islands might balance it out. I'm in a game where one player seized LA early on, and retaliated easily against attempts to "break" his "continent" -- and now he's looking nearly invulnerable. Granted, the SF "Bay Area" region has a higher bonus of 6, but it also has four bordering territories from three regions.

Just a bit? You are so nice.

I've mellowed in my old age. I'm just amazed that something like that escaped the notice of the gfx stamper.
