New map - Aventurien

It's the most illogical and made-up conglomerate of nations, tech levels, map snippets from "real world" regions, topped off by it's unwieldy and unconsistent simulation rules.
I really appreciate (nearly) every effort to contribute something to this great game and it's community .. but why must it be a map of "Aventurien"?

Why can't you (and others) come up with something new and creative, instead of rehashing old crap?

Uh, I can't tell whether this is an attempt at humor or you're just being an ***?

Thanks to everyone else for the suggestions. Mixing terrain types is not a good idea in my opinion, but I will see about adding more forests. The color saturation level could easily be lowered, but I wanted to avoid too much of a pastel effect where the colors are washed out.

Structure and chokepoints are one of the things I thought about right after posting this thread, and would indeed be nice. I have a dislike for impassable borders that aren't clearly marked (as in, a huge honking ocean), but I'll see about making some of the mountain ranges impassable.
