New Map - HOI2 based Europe map, 700+ provinces

Now includes a second .map file europespecstart.map that gives every nation in the game a special start location. For MOST nations it is historically or thematically based, however, for some nations, such as Early/Middle Age Ti'en Chi, Jomon, Bandar Log, + others, it was done just to fill out the map, as these nations are traditionally from other parts of the world. See the .map file for specifics about where each nation was placed.

You work fast, thanks

This would be great for one of those all age games, now.

You know what's mind numbing? typing out 600 some province names.

#landname ... over and over again... You know what's more mind numbing? Looking up names for all those provinces/locations in on-line atlases and such. I'm up to province 353 so far... I was hoping to have this done before I went to bed tonight, don't think I'll be that lucky though.

Ouch. I know your pain, I have to hand-set 130 province garrisons for a dom3k map. And I wanted to organize somewhat based on planet what creatures were where. So yeah it's somewhat painful. At least I don't have to consult an atlas though. On the bright side, you're brushing up on your geography?
