Here is a status update on the Rail USA map.
I will be rebuilding the entire legend to be more of an arrival/departure them. The text will be blockier and I will try to imitate the picture below. Thanks to Casper for the suggestion. Plus with this idea, the elimination of perspective and the gantry pole, The small map will have more room to move and help space out the text more.
Unfortunately for you (not me) I will be away on vacation till Sunday and will not be working on it until after that. Please feel free to give any other suggestions.
Once I return I will get these ideas implemented (along with those mentioned above) and give an update V12.

We are showing triple digits because there was a concern that when there where more than 99 armies in a box, they would start to overlap. I still do not agree with this design aspect, we should not need to make the boxes bigger for 1% of the games that will even have a single player get into triple digits once. Escalating and build up games have the best chance to get into triple digits and for escalating it only happens when the game is almost over and for build up, SO WHAT.
But it was a suggestion and CairnsWK and I decided to see what it looked like. I have only made the boxes at the stations that touch wider. I don't think the current size is a problem but if people think that they need to get bigger still, we will need to discuss it.
Thanks
