I went to go edit things with the legend and didn't have the font on this computer I used in the legend with it being new, so I did a new legend. I think it looks better. What do you guys think. It's all lined up and reordered now too.


I also darkened the buildings.. is it a new xml check away from quench?

The map is very nice but something I don't understand is why territories' names (most of them) are in french and "continents" names are in english :p

I didn't really know the continents name in french, and when I had some in french I got told I should anglicize them, it was one of the very first things. It didn't happen that way with the countries.

No, not French.. Well, maybe it is French, but I still don't know what the right word would be.

Not romantic either. Oh well, C is the best out of them all.
