You'll get a much more defined border and you can resize to whatever you want. But I like the red box mountains simply because they are so sharp - but I don't like the snow on them.

Does this make sense?

an adjustment to neutral or bonus values might be needed if this happens.

Done.theHippo wrote:Having regard to the map of Maori regions and places, here's a list of recommendations from me that may be helpful:
Focus on Nga Puhi (Kaitaia rather than Whangarei)
Done.Tainui (close enough to Pukekohe - shift from Rodney - which really isn't a Maori renown area at all)
Done.Tuhoi (Rotorua rather than Whakatane)
DoneNgati Porou (where you have Te Araroa but I'd choose Ruatoria as that has more significance)
Done.Ngati Kahungun (Hastings)
Done.Ngati Maru (Mt Taranaki - rather than Hawera
Done.Ngati Ruakawa (Taihape)
Too difficult to fit that request in, so Masterton it has to beNgati Toa (where you have Wellington - which is actually Pararaparaumu as Wellington is at the botton of the North Island where the circular harbour is - not that I'm complaining but Wellington is the Capital city!)
Made it the National ParksNgati Tama (Nelson)
Once again space prevent that.Rangitane (where you have Picton - shift from MV)
Not desirous to have two tikis side by side unless there is an impassable in-betweenNgati Apa (where you have Karamia - shift from Westport, which frankly wouldn't be classified as Maori in any way shape or form!)
Space...The rest of the South Island is pretty much considered Ngai Tahu - but you could do Ngai Tahu (where you have Hunurui - actually spelled Hurunui - but I'd shift that to Kairkoura if I were you)
Done.Te Wai Pounamu (pretty much covers it all but why not have that where you have Waimate
Balclutha doneWaitahe (where you have Clutha - actually speklled Balclutha - but I'd move that to Kaitangata if I were you)
Ah. to me Manapouri is only the lake and region around it...whereas the N.P. encompasses that whole area of the SW of the South Island, so i'll leave it there.finally Ngati Mamoe (where you have Fjordland but I'd shift that to Manapouri if I were you).
