The onyl thing i'd like to adjust is that Johannesburg be moved slightly inland off the coast. Any chance of that happening, if you8've got to adjust for NZ?

Perhaps this is a potential copyright obstacle and was deliberately avoided?

That map is a beautiful deviation of the old "Middle Earth" map because it uses political borderlines instead of these ugly connect-the-dots style maps. The more I look at this new map, the more it reminds me of the ungodly "classic shapes". Another example of a good "classic" deviation using political borderlines is the "classic art" map. If you ask me, it's perfect besides the names being ungeographical in nature (using capital cities instead of artist's names for example).
Political borderlines pleaaaaase! Lines are ugggly and lack awesomeness.

I would absolutely hate to see that happen. It would destroy conquer club as we know it. I don't want some marketing director from Hasbro come and decide what kind of maps CC should have. The site would all too fast degenerate into a mindless, dumbed-down-for-the-masses-of-teenagers piece of crap...

Looking forward to what, the Classic Revamp, or a Hasbro takeover of Conquer Club?

Only thing I have to say is - remove the "Anchorage and Magadan are connected" bit at the top - because it's completely out of place...

I completely disagree with this...
How else do you think Cities are going to border each other?!
Having Cities that span a 42nd of the globe is an absolutely preposterous idea... wait - your from America - I bet you think that everyone in the UK lives in London.
C.Yes I know you're from Canada - it was an ironic joke...
