I disagree, the strong bold colors are perfect for what the community want outside the foundry. :)
What do you know about map making, bitch?

Really? I went on Photoshop, and the army number colors are just the same as in a game. Some were a letter or two off (in Hex RGB code, like for the player colors here: http://www.conquerclub.com/mapmaker/), but this color difference is too small for the eye to detect.
So either you've got really good eyes, Wisse, or really bad eyes :P

i can clearly see the difference between the colour of the map of the ones with xml and the ones without, (i think it is because i have a really good monitor ;) )
but it doesn't matter because the one without xml seems great :D

-The thing you said about the optical illusion gave me an idea... I faded out the black line around the lake as it gets closer to the river: "feathering" in Photoshop terms. This helps a lot, I think, because you were right, in reality the lake and the river are really the same color.

perfect.

Basically, we want to know if the bonus for European Russia overrides the bonus for Moscow or is added to it. Or maybe you already understand that. Just checking to see if it matters or not :)

---The Final Forge period has concluded for the Soviet Union Map. All objections have had their time. The Foundry and I hereby brand this map with the Foundry Brand. Let it be known that this map is now ready for live play (barring any Lack vetoes).

Conquer Club, enjoy!
