Seeking map or need advice on making it

BTW, this is a horizontal wrap-around map.

Best looking map I've every seen pratically. Very realistic on the "natural" feel.

I found that making the provinces bigger worked fine as they are about 2x bigger than "standard" on my map, but it plays great (I actually prefer a more spacious feel).

I don't personally like wrap-around, but obviously that is nothing more than preference. In some ways it is more fair, but it seems unrealistic (be a pretty small planet to be able to walk across it in a year or two ) and it is nice to have edges as defensive strategies become more viable.

I love the idea of sea races to be able to make it up into the fresh water. Were you planning on supporting that?
