My favorite too, although somehow feels like a lot less potential work than the others.
Any suggestions for the next few steps with that one?

I feel like you will have to ask for supersized map permissions.

Yeah, trying to fit to normal size makes it all a bit squashed, so licence to have a little more width would be cool, maybe not that much extra room needed to reduce the crowded areas though?

Merging? You mean merging the inset and main map? See below if that is what you mean.

Sorry, what I meant was that you merge territories together. For instance if Australia ever got too crowded you could always merge those 3 into 1(hypothetical example).
And by expanding the map's width I was referring to you asking for supersized map permissions.
I dont feel there is any leeway to remove any regions where things are a touch crowded (i.e. a West African region) as this would unbalance that starting position: Each starting position (blue 7s) has 3 local regions (including a +1 'centre') for players to get going before they travel to the central mediterranean area through a 3-neutral, or risk trying to hit another starting area though a 7 killer neutral (red 7).

Anyway, I think we are probably agreeing that the first step is to reduce size, then ask for supersize if still over the 600x630 limit?

Don't ask me that question. Everybody has their own methods and way of ordering tasks. Just do what you feel you got to do.

I voted for the Age of Man map and suggest you lobby around this map (and other ideas), Bring them to the bargaining table with BigvWham. Consumer surveys show the people like this model, bring the product to market.
and the players should back the producers.
Appreciate all that you have done are doing and will do.

I really don't like Age of Man. It's basically another World 2.1, except as hard to understand as Dawn of Ages. Would soon become just another farming map -- the normal player wouldn't take the time to figure it out.
Typically, software goes through two stages of testing before it is considered finished. The first stage, called alpha testing, is often performed only by users within the organization developing the software. The second stage, called beta testing , generally involves a limited number of external users.
