would this qualify for the larger maps size now or soon to be allowed ?

[Industrial Helix]

Wow... that is a huge map and it looks quite beautiful. I love the presentation.

I wonder if listing the impassables twice is necessary though. I mean, it fits with the two maps now equal one theme... so that excuses it in some respects.

i would leave it there twice because it is presented as 2 maps rather than 1 really big one

the small is a little larger than the limit, but In exceptionally-exceptional circumstances, there is the further potential for flexibility

agree

[Bruceswar]

Congrats and lets see this get pushed out!

[elfish_lad]

Wow. This is spectacular.

Amazing. Congrats.

[greenoaks]

will the ship to the east and west become a terit ?

I can't begin to tell you how much I crave this!

I wonder if Mar de Sur might be better connected to somewhere a little bit more south than Quito. Chimu or Inca maybe?

Also, I'd like to see the words Atlantic and Mar de Sur closer to their ships... at least inside the blue. They're kind of way out there away from things. And why not go for a similarity in naming convention. If one is in Spanish then put the other in spanish.

I'll move the names a little closer.. and try to figuer out what to call them

what about another boat where the Southern impassables are, one that connects to the Pacific boat, and to Tiwanaku?
I don't know how I feel about it yet, just an idea I'm throwing out there.

[theBastard]

beautiful

agree with Helix, the Quito has connection with Guaymi, so the connection from Mar del Sur could go more to south.
the second ship is not needed, I think, just if ship in Atlantic has three connections, also Mar del Sur could has one more. maybe to Alaska...

[Industrial Helix]

That might work... possible connect it into the Southern Andes bonus rather than the Northern. Northern Andes is a good starting bonus to aim for and it would kind of ruin that to create another connection. Plus... some of these connections might be altering bonus values. I think putting the connection into North Andes might make it worth more than it currently is. And I figure you want very little bonus alterations on this map.

[natty dread]

This is just an idea/opinion, but I think you could combine the 2 meso-americas into a single bonus... it would sort of bring the map together into a more coherent whole.

[Kabanellas]

it's looking awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MrBenn]

It's back.....

[grifftron]

It's back.....

Will this one pretty much go right thru the foundry since both maps are already out and quenched.. just the little new connectors i guess and its up? I think it would be best to have this as the first / one of the first out on the mega maps.

[esiemer]

that is a thing of beauty indeed... wow.

[Victor Sullivan]

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING TISHA!!! Hearts a-plenty for you! <3 I have some comments/suggestions:

1. The sea territories are freakin' brilliant.
2. North and South Meso America, as well as Circum-Caribbean, all need to be upped to +3, as they each have 3 borders now, as opposed to the original 2.
3. For the title, might I suggest "First Nations of the Americas"? That way it will be next to the other two First Nations maps in the game finder.
4. More of a graphics suggestion - change the red, purple, and orange on either North or South America, as those same colors appear close to the same colors in the opposite America. Though with the legends as they are, it may not be necessary. Ultimately, your choice.

P.S. OMFG THE DRAFT STAMP!!!
P.S.S. Suck this map, World 2.1!

[BlackandYellow]

Amazing
i love it
but i do agree with natty_dead
combining the meso-americas would bring the map together

[bedub1]

EDIT: Oops..this is the Gameplay Workshop and not the Graphics Workshop...my bad. I have nothing useful to add to the discussion.

if I change like Circum-Caribbean, then It seems I have to change Great Basin also, no? N Meso didn't change that much in it's connection, but I did think about upping S. Meso.

would rather keep the territory colors how they are. they seem obvious to me.. with the legends

This is just an idea/opinion, but I think you could combine the 2 meso-americas into a single bonus... it would sort of bring the map together into a more coherent whole.

I definitely don't wanna combine the edges of the map together and make one massive bonus down there

I know I need better names for the ships, but are those better connections for the west ship?

Will the boats be regular territories or killer neutrals?

I wasn't thinking of killer neutrals, I was just thinking neutrals. 74 territories, and 71 is Ideal. I was thinking neutrals on the boats and Nimiipuu.
