Well, yes, only the rail lines at present, but if there is other things that need attending to i could be up for the challenge if they are given to me quickly.

Back to topic...
While i contemplate my navel...and the changes i have to make...i have addressed iancanton's issues in this latest update

in the +11 bonus description, it's a monarch's commander. in the losing conditions text, it's a commander's monarch. which is it meant to be?

iancanton is one word!

I have changed this to read...makes much more sense to me the way i read it.
Conditional Borders: * A Monarch position (M) can be assaulted only if one region of the same Monarch Commander's Vessel is held

I've had a think about sizes...

Small - 1023W x 864H
Large - 1200W x 1110H

Suitable???... too big????

Mmmm, seems no-one is interested in giving feedback on the size...
anyway, we'll push on.

Version 26

I've downsized the bottom corners to normal border size...which enables me to move the Treasury section down...thus giving more space to the map itself.
So i moved things around (mainly down) so that the top of the map wasn't so cramped.
Hope this is an improvement.
I've also decided not to put this through PS, as i've redone all the major straight lines so they are good and shouldn't have the blur issue.

cairns, why do some of the territ lines have different opacity? Bridgewater to Bristol looks different to Bridgewater to Poole Land and again different from some of the others. The same goes for the beacon paths. Left side of the board looks lighter than the right side. Is their a reason for this that I missed?

Either way, all looks rather splendid to me.

[koontz1973]

Better thanks, but some of the attack lines for the beacons now show in the boxes.
Thuro land base, black line at the to middle. I know it is for the sea but my eye is now drawn to it.
