I created a large map based off of Europa Barbarorum, which is set in 272 BC. I added some new territories and some are rather small. Who wants to be invited to a test game of my new map?
Not for me... the blockiness of it bothers my eyes or something.
I take it the random black spots are supposed to be lakes or something similar?
Also, one recommendation is to make sure the bonus borders don't overlap. I can see from that map that Sarmatia overlaps Scythia so that only one color is visible at any given time. Easy enough tweak with inkscape though.
Sorry if that's the case. The original map was done just like that: blocky. Yes, the black spots are supposed to be lakes, and I can probably fix the borders easily.
Well lerizzle, you put the map version to testing on the Design Maps page and then simply create a game with it. I suggest using a multiplayer game because other people can catch design errors you might have missed.
Perrin3088 is right, lerizzle. You might also want to show oversea connections with a line so people don't get confused about which territories that one island connects to.
