I hope you were serious when you thanked me for 'keeping at it' - because I intend to
First, I'd like to thank you right back for taking my concerns into consideration!

Riskismy wrote:I think there would be more to the idea if they were all contested. Whether there's 4, 8 or just a single support territory, the tension of the map would increase manifold if they were somehow all contested.
In the legend, we state that "HCMT x one-way assaults HCMT x+2".
It is only necessary to state this, as HCMT x and x+1 would be adjacent.I.e Quang Binh is 1, Khammouane is 2, Xepon is 3, Quang Tri and Attapeu are 4...

MarshalNey wrote:(4) The phrase "Territory they assault and are assaulted by" isn't attached to anything at the moment. I think it might work nicely to just put an arrow on either side of that instruction pointing to the 'US Advisors" and 'US Public' boxes to give a couple of examples.

I THINK the key would be fine, we didnt have huge keys on this one anyways... and i had them all blown up on that supersized map, i was just worried about fitting the 888's + the tert names + any symbols we have on some of those little terts.

Might be nice to see anyhow. Gameplay clarity is part of the requirements for the stamp, so I figure it's best to be safe.

yea just dont want to resize everything until i know those terts would be accepted by these mods, if its not maybe they will want us to upsize, then i get er done.

this was the 630x600 small size, it is looking pretty small! some of those terts are at least... anyone have any suggestions? dont want to move on until i can make sure these 888's fit in the size we are keeping on the small size.

Numbers fit here, but when you add territory labels... maybe not.
My advice is, before you go for supersize, maybe you can try to fudge up the borders of the smallest territories just slightly so that both the label & number fit in them. Don't worry about coastal territories, for those you can always put the label on the side of the territory.

I think use "LT" for "Long Tieng" as well.
"1st Cavalry" looks ok but I think it's generally referred to as "1st Cav Div" for short.
