I think the swords might need some sort of dark backdrop to make them stand out more.
I don't really care for the ship wheel in a circle for the naval battle site. Perhaps two ships or something would be cooler?
Move the swords in Rumelia south so they don't conflict with the words of Ottoman Empire.
Where's Orient for the Ottoman Empire?
Gibraltar's one way attack of Malta and Corse -> Aboukir should use the same graphical scheme.
I like how the sea battles are a start neutral, as if you have to do something to earn the use of the sea passage.
I think it would be appropriate to add a capital for Spain.
Ok, I saw the Dardenelles in the Black Sea and did some quick reading on the Dardenelles during the war. Looks like there was in fact a battle there and the Dardenelles played their historic and timeless role of whether or not to keep them shut or open and to whom should they be open. I highly recommend and request that a sea route through the Dardenelles to connect with the battle site, it would not be true to the wars if it wasn't there.

I'll say more later, but I think it looks a little smushed and crowded. I liked .44's better, but that is neither here nor there.

I think this would add to both the accuracy of the map and enjoyment of the game. What does everyone think about this?

I don't suppose your at this point yet but I hope you look hard at the values you have on the caps. Since they are the victory objective I would not think a simple 3 would suffice. 6 sounds good. Especially with those killer russian winter terts. Maybe make Moscow at 10. The most powerful armies in the world failed to conquer it. A London high value would be appropriate also. Napoleon & Hitler invaded Russia because they saw the near impossibility of a successful invasion of Britain. Make it hard.
