Sorry to throw this in amongst other discussion topics:

Have you dropped the 'no territory bonus idea?

Looking forward to playing this one, it's been a long time and a lot of work for you MrBenn - I'm sure it will be worth it

Cheers DJ

I can't remember what happened with the "no territory bonus" idea in the end - I think I decided to leave it out while debating whether or not the gameplay would work.... I'm no longer sure whether it would be TOO confusing or not

Here's my immediate "to do" list for the XML:

1. Rename the abbreviated territories
2. Add in the starting neutral in Durham
3. Remember what was eventually decided about starting positions

Hopefully I'll find some time to make those amendments tonight

1. Check
2. Check
3. Check

I'll double-check the XML when I'm not on the verge of falling asleep.

Wonderful map MrBenn

Only 3 small things:

Coordinates to fix:

Small Version:

Notts.

Big Version:

W Sussex

888

Berkshire on the small version, it's possible to move a bit the name to the right ? (Partially covered with 888)

Everything else is ok.

I've been waiting for this map for ages! It's already lined up to be included in two of my tournaments! Well done MrBenn it looks great

Whoo! Getting some games ready now

I'd play if I didn't have this little thing called the HSC coming up.
And if there were games already up... It can't take that long can it?

Stunning map, MrBenn. You have done England proud.

And now I intend to take Worcestershire and hold it against all comers.........you have been warned

Why was this map not added when the others were?

I'm playing it now. I like the map itself. But the bonuses are not clearly stated. I have no idea what region is what.

I know it's not the most straightforward instruction, but I think there's enough on the map to make it clear. If a significant number of people raise it as an issue, I'll have a look and see if anything can be done

In the meantime, I wonder if this will help:

Each county is named in Black text.
Each region is indicated by a cluster of counties in the same shade, with the name ghosted onto the region.
The legend is divided into areas, and depicts the bonuses for each region under an area heading (North, Midlands, South).

So... the county of East Sussex is in the SOUTH EAST region, and in The SOUTH area.

On my way to xmap on it and I have no issues. It's a great map, no problems figuring out the bonuses. Great job!
