Andy...just do it (tm)! :)

P.S. - Yes...pity about the Italian. RJ is that no order necessary though? Other maps have the city bonus and it's pretty understood that it's a no order bonus although I don't think it harms to have it there either.


It might be clearer to remove the "No order" but change it to "Any 2", "Any 3", "Any 4", and "All 5" (like the king of the mountain map).


This is the first time I've looked at this map and I think it would be helpful to do the "Any 2", "Any 3", etc,etc.

Which?


Page 22. Plain and simple. It does hot have the 'no order' text and it does not have the unnecessary cluttering of the city names. As I said it is pretty straightforward already without those changes. By adding the city names we created the need for the additional text, et cetera...

What's the decision RJ? How about we see the large and small images, along with links and the XML.

It's looking good RJ, I'd maybe consider moving the 'Citta Bonus' (and everything beneath it that goes along with it) to the left, to give a little more space for both it and the Territorio parts of the legend. But if you think it's fine the way it is, that's dandy too. ;)

Word. I did it & just uploaded overtop of the previous files. Hit refresh on your browser & you should see the map image above change. It looks better evenly spaced like it is now - good call Andy.

I've been slowly working on a Charleston, SC map. It's the perfect area for a map - a few islands all close together, each with their own civil / revolutionary war history. It's coming along but slowly! I'll start a thread eventually.

I could not get the text clear enough with the outline so I just removed it.

Could you possibly move the Molise label to the left a little bit on the large map to give it more room.
