36 territories (capital starts neutral)
? Bonus
No unique gameplay (yet...)
Peon's Questions:
1. How do I make the river fit into the land more? (I am using photoshop and the stuff I know ain't workin')
2. Could someone, perhaps AndrewB send me a link to a map with proper Ukrainian names? I was born in Ukraine, but being a Russian I prefer to spell Kyiv as Kiev and will probably make some other mistakes.

Questions:
1. I played around a bit with the title and could not find any way I can make it look good. Any suggestions?
2. I am planning a 1 troop per territory bonus with each player starting with 1-2 territories. What do you think?
3. Any naming problems that you see?

How about an outside glow - not too much - to make the title *pop* off the page?2. I am planning a 1 troop per territory bonus with each player starting with 1-2 territories. What do you think?
Will they be starting with 1 or 2 territories or will it be randomly assigned? Are you planning any bonuses say like minerals from the mountains, fish from the sea, grain from the plains? Holding let's say any combination has a bonus of 3 (just throwing out a number here)?3. Any naming problems that you see?
Change Kiev to Kyiv. Other than that I don't see any other problems.
Suggestions:
- Remove the inner glow and leave the outer glow.
- Maybe you could put in a couple of railroads (to add to the game)
Are your territories marking the major cities? Because I don't see where your territory borders match up with a map of the Ukraine.
Until the next post.

Each player will start out with 1-2 territories, I was thinking of having no other bonuses other than the 1 troop per territory for the unique gameplay it would give. However, I am open to other ideas, the railroads are a good one.
Will change Kiev to Kyiv in next update.
My territories take the provinces and several of them are split up into 2-3 territories for gameplay. This way, I have 36 territories instead of 24. I admit that I took some of the major cities that had 12-20 character names and replaced them with smaller cities nearby. Is this allowed in maps? I was just thinking that
1. 15 character names for half the cities won't fit on the map
2. I don't think names like that for half the territories will make people want to play this

Changes:
- outline of the map changed
- glow around title
- title font changed
- reduced opacity of parts of the river
- Tirastopol name moved
As for the 36 territories, I had been planning to make Kyiv start as neutral, although I probably should have posted it in a better spot. I don't think anyone noticed it in the first post.
