The underlying map is very pretty, but the borders are so thick and harsh that they are very distracting. If the provincial boreders could be... hmmm... thinner (much thinner, even), or softer, or thinner and light grey, or... just generally much less imposing, the map would look overall much more like it was originally intended, I imagine. Did you draw it all yourself?

-Cherry

P.S. I don't really see a reason not to add a couple ocean provinces, but it's your map...=)
You mean the board that the map rests on? Yeah I could just delete that if that is what you mean.

I'm a big fan of dark wood which is why it is in

Thanks for saying you like it, I'm testing it ins a network game right now and am having a bLast!

Kris said he'd post it at Illwinter too, so, hopefully it won't have to clutter up teh forum here.

edit: oh the PROVINCE boarder... yup, they are thicker than I'd likem... good point. I'm liking them more as I play the map. They are easy to see, that is for sure! I might thin them out but that is a lot of work at this point

I could try light gray and see how that looks, one tends to play this map very zoomed out due to how large the provinces are and that help them seem less thick.

No, I got the graphic from a fan D&D posting, the link to it is in the other thread where I asked for help in makign it.

You can download the map there and make your own lines

I've been using this map for network games and it is great too!

You're very welcome and perhaps we'll meet on the battlefield soon

Let me know what you think of the balance and also of the Grand Wizard!
