Re: New Map for Dom2 : Land of Shahrivar
Oooh, it's pretty, and different. I like it!
If you're making more maps, I'll add a few comments...
1) Shahrivar is at the upper end of map sizes I would ever play, though there are also many people who like larger maps.
2) Illwinter's Cradle map also has differently "themed" or "colored" nation-areas, which are largely separated from each other by geographical features (generally mountains). The way this created chokepoints was a plus, IMO. Shahrivar might possibly give an advantage to Red and disadvantage to Orange, but this is pure speculation based on the picture; I have not examined the province adjacencies.
3) Wraparound maps are not very common (and, probably, are difficult to make). I'm not sure I like full-wraparounds, but half-wraparounds (cylindrical maps) are really nice, and I can't think of any other than Ringworld. A second half-wrap map would be nice.
Thanks for your efforts; I look forward to playing on it!
