read the legend

I meant visually. It's hard to actually see the difference.

Speaking of the legend though, what do you mean by "can be countered"? You still need to clarify.

The border between the ice and the grass feels too abrupt. I'm not too sure how to fix that though. Maybe making the grass right above the ice something more bleak? Like a plain or tundra?

But I like the direction this is going.

how about some grass spots in the ice? and extend it out a little?

the boat numbers are random

It might work. Whatever looks good.

oops, forgot to change the names so that it goes with the lowest at the lowest part of the map and the highest at the highest part

ok to do list

extend ice area a big and add some grass spots
work on the ice a little
make the boat numbers not random

is that all?

Something minor: have those little streams widen a little when they meet that river/bay/whatever it's supposed to be. Looks more natural that way.

bryguy · Post by **bryguy** » Wed Feb 27, 2008 9:34 pm

changes

made the grass-to-snow a little more gradual and added grass splotches
widened the rivers out at ends
replaced scorpion pass with a gate

looks cool, although can you try to darkin the frozen river? its kinda hard to see with the snow next to it and wiht color blind people around here it might be a problem.

InkL0sed · Post by **InkL0sed** » Thu Feb 28, 2008 12:50 am

Very well done. I'm impressed.

bryguy · Post by **bryguy** » Thu Feb 28, 2008 7:52 am

What are the dotted lines running through the big river? Why are they so angular? why do some of them cut into (or very close to) army circles and others come nowhere near them?

Sorry if this has been discussed, but I've read a good part of this thread over the last several weeks, but may have missed it somewhere.

thats how you get from the land territories to the ships, cause only some ships can get to the land, some cant

V.9 Small and Large (only difference is a darker frozen river)

Small

Large

amazingly, the text being kinda/sorta bolded green makes it easier to read in the small

I think there should be a second gate in the wall at Fedira
