I don't really see the need for the border between Gros Morne and Cartwright. Newfoundland is currently only worth 2 as a bonus, adding another border seems silly. All the rest of the bonuses seem good to me; I would have made them the same if i had been making it I think. Except for maybe the one with 3 territories (Duplessis, Gaspesie, Anticisti). It's worth 3 right now and only has three territories. Is there a way to add another territory somewhere... maybe cut up Duplessis into two? The rest of the borders look fair to me.

The colors in New Brunswick and the main part of Quebec are a little tricky, they look pretty similar.

you need to add continent names on the legend.

The Family Guy monkey will most likely come under copywrite, so using it as your sig is probably a no-no.

instead of redrawing it i'd say it's best to just put your name on the map instead of a monkey. :wink:

Theres alot of dead space on your map. You could probably cut the size down by taking cutting the top and right hand side. and you could cover some dead space with a title aswell :)

I was thinking about this guys and i think a connection from "Nain" to "Nunavik" would make the bonuses worth more and make better game play, what do you think?

Sorry but i'm going to have to with L.P. on this one too... I don't really think there's any need.
The colors look really good now, great job!

How's it going with Continent names? And the title?

It doesn't matter that he hasn't asked for them yet... Here are my suggestions.

Nova Scotia & PEI: 4
New Brunswick: 2
Newfoundland: 2
Labrador: 2
Quebec: 5
Ungava Peninsula: 4
Gaspe: 3

So, if there are people who think the map is too big and space isn't being used... what about making the mini-map smaller and move up and to the right. Then the map can be cut-off just under Evangeline Trail. Then there's still lots of room for the title and Continent/ Province names in the upper right corner. And of course, the smaller cuter little lone.prophet monkey can still fit.
