While I disagree with his similar post in British Isles, I agree here. The continent colors need to be more prominent. You could water mark in the flags if you want, but right now it burns my eyes.cena-rules wrote:I really likr the map. But for god sake do something about the colours

He means that you should fill the countries with a single colour for each continent so it is easy to look at and remove the pictures or symbols.I agree with cena because at the moment your sketch is easier to read than your neat copy.

Thing is the places with coats of arms, are different to the territories filled with plain colours. So the coats of arms are there to differentiate between the territories.

sd031091 wrote:this looks like a well thought out map. I have a few ideas to possibly expand gameplay. First of all, there's the color issue. I suggest much lighter inside borders and thicker outside borders for countries. That way you could leave the flags (or make them a bit fainter) and still have the countries well defined. Also I think Venice should be able to bombard Constantinople (which Crusade was that again? 4?) Lastly I think there should be more sea routes. Other than that, I'm stumped. You seem to have it all there already.
