Fixed dice.
Changed Mountains, but still unhappy with them. will work on that more..
NJ Devil in the corner looks dumb standing there, so I put the N thingy. I had some guys playing baseball up there because the first ever baseball game was up there.

Moved the auto deploy Trenton note up north... change the font?
really no B & W cows in NJ?
the green sign is not needed you say? because people are pretty clueless sometimes..

font I found:

how bout a stadium up there in place of the devils logo (which i hated also).

giants, jets, nets, devils - stadium or arena would cover all them...

[Tisha]

people (c****) aren't responding to my Copyright emails. Will make my own letters.
anything else?

might get some more posts if we were in the recycling box still.

[natty dread]

Those two douchebags in the corner look a bit pixelated.

Just a couple of nit picks - which are just personal - could you move the mini-map over to the left, and move the interstate sign to the left of the interstate, and then you can move the "+1 Autodeploy on Trenton" under Trenton so that it reads "Trenton +1 Autodeploy". Concerning the suggestion of a stadium up where the Devils logo is, I really don't think you need anything up there.

someone suggested I don't need the green part of the sign, what do you think?

I think it is up to you. You can do it either way IMHO, nothing that will stop this from moving forward.

Its been a while since I've looked at this map. Looks really good.

[lostatlimbo]

Haha! I was joking about the Devils, but its awesome that you actually added it (even if it has to go).

Maybe instead, you can put a -13 troop bonus on Newark, to represent Ilya Kovalchuk's defensive liability.

Looks pretty good overall. I agree you could lose the green part of the sign.

Bringing the discussion back on gameplay, how many neutrals, apart the 3 obvious trenton, ship and interstate, do you have planned for this map?
Atlantic City should be managed in some way to not give an advantage to a player due a lucky drop and on the opposite Dalware River number of regions should be probalby reduced, it's a large bonus in the middle that mostly it's not a good thing. Anyway I'll give you more inputs as soon as I know where your starting neutrals are.
Btw sorry if you have them in the first post and I totally missed them.

Starting neutrals will be Atlantic City, Trenton, and then the two passages (killer neutrals). thoughts?

*** UPDATE ***

removed img from upper right
removed interstate sign from left hand side
moved auto deploy text from key area and put it next to region (trenton)
new font/img for map title (New Jersey)
changed look of trees (near pine barrens)

anything else holding this up?

I really can't wait for this map to come online so i can run a huge 256 player tournament based on Nj state wrestling tournament

LOL, guess that means you approve?

[Flapcake]

I kind of liked the interstate sign, it gave something visiual.

The bridges looks like boat jettys (correct spelled ?) they dont look like they connect anything.

I still think the cow should be a Jersey cow

But overall Im happy that you stayd with the current appearance, looks nice

Ok, in this case my first idea doesn't work. I was going to suggest you to merge camden with cherry hill and burlington with pine barrens. The issue doing this is that you come out with 38 regions at the start = 12 territories in 2 and 3 players games. Considering that is something not good, in this case I would suggest you to reduce the number of regions in the delaware zone anyway, but merge ONLY two regions to have this zone composed of a total of 6 regions instead of 7. So you could merge OR camden with cherry hill OR burlington with pine barrens. It will help to make that zone more holdable.

How many neutrals will have trenton and atlantic city at the start? 3, 4 troops ?

[chaos32679]

I was thinking 3's for AC and Trenton, and maybe 2's for the killer neutrals.

as for merging, i'd rather keep camden and cherry hill. what if they were extended and glassboro went away? idk, i kinda like that its not an easy region to hold, if you can get it, you'll definitely be earning that +6 bonus.

I'll talk to my partner in crime, see what she thinks...

[thenobodies80]

I'm fine with extend them and get rid of glassboro. I agree that is worth the 6 troops, but I'm worried that as it is now it will be a no man land. The "if you can get it" is my real concern

[chaos32679]

*** UPDATE ***

Camden and Cherry Hill extended, Glassboro removed...

Onward and upward we go!!

The white/grey area on the birds head looks very strange. It took ages before I saw that little beak underneath it. Nice coloured bird though .
