That's what it is? I could read it because of those gaseous vapors coming from your avatar made my eyes water!
But yes, that text.

One remaining problem: the colours of the bonus regions on the main map aren't the same as in the mini-map. This could be confusing.

Placed offending Hungarian text into a box.
English text is now a light grey and sharper. Looks OK to me but the I am not as
fussy as you lot.

The historical background on the left is not the the part that someone would have to re-read each round, unlike the bonus info for example. The white text was readable in the previous version as well, though it was not this bright. It was much better to look at the text then than it is now.
I had absolutely no problem reading the previous version of the Hungarian text either. It suited to the map a lot more.
Also, if these texts were legible for a colorblind person then they should not be too difficult to read for anyone with a normal eye-sight. I would like both of these changes to be reversed.
Jatekos wrote:Suggestion regarding the text boxes: The country has a unique shape, which is not symmetrical. A non-symmetrical legend would more suite to the map than the current boxes. How about adding a map-effect to the text boxes like on the First Nations maps or on the Age of merchants map. The point is, that they should not necessarily have so sharp and straight edges.

cairnswk wrote:koontz1973...a couple of nit-picks for you...pleasant ones
1. it is possoble to pull the bottom of the story text up slightly or move Karolyvaros so that one is not sitting almost atop the other
2. can you tweak the glow around Arva and Szepes...they are hardly readable
3. in your signature...map is sitting slightly out of horizontal alignment with koontz...
4. although not affecting gameplay, i really had think what that is where Austria sits
5. can the Kingdom of Serbs etec...be strung out in one line so it doesn't sit so close to the Hungarian story...perhaps to a similar concave degree that Adriatic Sea is
nice work though...very koontz in style...

The laurel wreath is kinda generic, no? Could you go with something a little more... Hungarian there? A shield or the cross of the coat of arms to represent Budapest perhaps?
The green beneath the mountains is ok, but I feel like it could blend into the colors of the bonuses they are in better, so that they are a part of the area rather than on top of the map itself.
The vischeck... with so many shades of red/green/brown, it comes off okay... its needs to be better. I think you may have to work into the Central Hungary area some shades of blue to better differentiate better for those with color blindness. In theory a green/blue color will come up greyish-blue under vischeck and really give you what you seek for color blindness clarity.

why Tisza has not connection with Danube?
