Re: 1588 Spanish Armada [17.2.13] V37-L&S

There are only 10 areas that really stick out:

Isaiah40.
I've looked at all those.
the borders are 2 pixels wide on soft line vectors...and these somewhat pixelated edges are the result of the angles that the lines run at.
I have been around all the entire lot and checked that they all met where they're supposed to i.e. all lines sit over the top of the bordering line and are not 1/2 pixels off,
and the corners are all grided. i have corrected where necessary, but the jaggered obscure angled lines are not going to go away completely.

SS David looks like SS Davio. Not a big deal and the text on the single ships looks a bit light. Other than that looks good.

nolefan5311...i have question...
if i am awaiting xml to be written, under the new foundry policy if i don't do a graphics update for a month, does the map still get thrown in the recycling bin?

You've already received the graphics stamp, so you don't need to do anymore updates graphically. This is a beast of an xml file, so I imagine some leeway will be given.

Hey,

I was looking at Armada XML and was wondering if the losing condition has changed. Is it now ONLY failing to hold a non-treasury region will get you eliminated.

Yes. you no longer have to hold the Monarch, since that was outside of what the Armada was.
The Monarach and Treasury facilitate the Armamda.
They are not critical to its existance.
And this helps keep the main battle on the geographic section.
