Map: New Map Orbus Deus

[Aristander]

Thank you for your comments.

As far as the sea areas having to many adjacent land areas I agree. At the time I was thinking that the sea terrain should have a lot of options to keep the land player guessing. However I can see how it can be a double edged sword. I am open to suggestions on limiting Sea access. Maybe every third hex or something?

As for movement I did try to limit movement from one hex to another according to terrain for example coasts and mountains, it just is not obvious at first glance by looking at the map. I will try to make it more obvious in the next map.

It's been a while since there's been a new map. Congrats on finishing your first.

Ich and Sombre are right about too many adjacent provinces for the water provinces. I would suggest making 6 neighbors the maximum. I counted 12 on one and didn't look at them all. If you have one or two provinces with up to 8 neighbors, that would not be overwhelming, but probably would require knocking others down to 3 or 4. I'm guessing the average province has 4 to 5 neighbors in the game.

But a nice map otherwise. Congratulations and thank you.

I don't like some of the mountain province connections. For example, in the north eastern mountain range there are a number of provinces that connect to two provinces beneath them but not to each other, when it doesn't really look like they shouldn't connect. There are also several provinces that look more like border mountains than mountains from the description. This map really limits your land mobility a lot, I don't mind terrain clustering that much since it makes sense, but I have the feeling the amount of movement-limiting terrain is going to make it somewhat frustrating to play on.
