why do the south and scotia sea connect, but not baffin bay and chukchi sea?

Because there was no Northwest Passage in the 16th Century.

Pack ice prevented ships from getting through until an ice breaker did it in the 20th century, and even that took the crew three years. It is navigable now, as a result of climate change.

Here are two examples of the large map with army coordinates... small map needs larger circles, so I'll have that up shortly. Note that these are screenshots, and I don't know why the 88s happened to come out look like mud on the first one no matter though as these are for the purpose of centering only. Please tell me what you see off.

They all look centered to me. Nice work on that oaktown.

OK, small coordinates... there are a few territories that ain't perfect, kept looking a bit too far to the left or the right, so I went with what looked better to me. If anything looks way off I can recreate individual circles.

To do:
ā€¢ move the Baltic and Black Sea titles a bit on the small map to get them out from behind the numbers.
ā€¢ I'll see about darkening up the small map a bit, as Andy suggested.

My guess is because of the ice up there. Not exactly easy to sail C16 ships in that area ;)

I'm not too fond of the name Moz. Chan. ...mostly because I don't see any other abbreviations...but I do realize that it extended out is probably too big to fit the space. Perhaps if you put Mozambique roofing the army shadow, and Channel along the left side of it---that may work. But it'd look oddly arrange compared to the position of all other names, so it may not be worth it.

A tiny thing, "Sea of California" ... the final "A" is a little off the "world" if that makes sense...perhaps a slight nudge left.

small map redux

In this version:
ā€¢ darkened inset map... any darker and it weighs down that corner
ā€¢ Moz. Chan. is now spelled out; solution was to use a smaller type size
ā€¢ Sea of California nudged back into map
ā€¢ Titles that bumped into army counts readjusted

To do: adjust coordinates to match changes.

I don't like the new Mozambique Channel, but I guess there isn't really a better way to do it. The rest of the changes look good/

Oaktown there is always something about your maps that feel more complete than other maps. I live it.

But whatever is going on in north africa looks to busy to me, would it be to much to do something with it (even thou im not sure what) :P
What do you know about map making, bitch?

I'd love to do something about whatever it is that is bothering you, gim. I'm trying to read your mind to figure out what that is, but there must be something between us that is keeping me from picking up your thoughts... what could it be... Oceanus Atlanticus perhaps? ;)

Hmm... are people having trouble making out the camels? If so I should swap out that image for something completely different.

Those things are camels!? The whole picture makes a lot more sense now :P

Seriously, I had no idea what they were. I guess another image would be good, though I kind of like this one now that I know what it is.

Tell ya what I'll do - I'll lose the second camel and make it easier to make out.

If we are going to change various images on the map, what about adding a Kraken? :) (There's no room really, I just like the old sea creature. :D)

That thing between the Scotia Sea and Cape Basin looks vaguely Kraken-ish. It could pass for one ;)

It in no way resembles a Kraken. Pretty sure it's a 'seahorse.' :)

Hmm...now that you mention it, I didn't notice the right/bottom line on that thing's neck, making me think that it's whole right half was tentacles, hence the Kraken.

I think this proves that either I have worse eyesight than I thought, a more overactive imagination than I thought, or that Oaktown doesn't draw very clear mythical creatures. :lol:
