i really like this map. it's fresh clean and crisp. also the colour palette is very well chosen.

however i have 2 minor nitpicks. as far as i'm concerned you can ignore both as it's something most people will not even notice, but if you feel like solving them and it doesn't take long then it will all look just a tad closer to perfection.

1. river-sea blending. right now the river ends abruptly as it hits the sea:

i believe it should be a smooth transition like so:

2. border pressure points. in some areas you have pressure points in the borders where it appears like there's a thicker blacker spot. if you used a stylus to draw them, then you must have had the pressure option turned on. if you drew them by mouse then you probably didn't have a smooth move in that area and hence it registered a thicker spot.

I can fix the first one easy... The 2nd looks like it will not be needed, though I do agree with you. Also I hand drew these lines with my finger on my touch screen, so I can see where they could be slightly off. Good Eye!

Beta - Quenching

---The development period has concluded for the Baltic States Map. All objections have had their time. The Foundry and I hereby brand this map with the Foundry Beta Brand. Let it be known that this map is now ready for BETA Play. After an extended period of time in BETA and once all quirks and issues have been resolved, the map will be put into Full Play (barring any Admins or Foundry Foreman vetoes).

Conquer Club, enjoy!

While the map is in BETA Play, there are a couple of administrative tasks that are required of the mapmaker(s) in addition to the initial gameplay testing:

a timely and constructive manner.

Hey! Region "Ogre" appears in the game log as "Orge".

Kind regards, cool map!

Just wanted to say I really like the map. Basic game play is nice with enough small bonuses that it offers a lot of play options. Very visually appealing as well. Congrats

I will get it fixed soon.

Thanks all!

it looks as if, in well over half of 1v1 games, the first bonus to pay out is one of the 2-region or 3-region bonuses. u can fix this by reducing the two latvian 3-region bonuses to +1, since these are the biggest culprits. kaunas is misspelled as kaunus in the xml.

Yeah, just noticed this. The map and XML are different. Loving the map though.

Nice map.
Appearance: handsome.
Gameplay: offering the challenges.-in-miniature of bonuses and connectivity that the best small maps have.
A bit weighted to the south, perhaps, if there is any downside.
