it may be just me but some numbers look a little bit to the right.
mainly almost all the 2 digit armies look a bit to the right. or i'm very tired and can't see clearly.
I've noticed that CC doesn't center a 2-digit number based on the center of the number, but on the location of the space between the two digits. So 25 will look centered, but 15 will look just off to the right because the 1 doesn't fill the space as the 2 would.
As such, I originally centered all numbers using a symmetrical 1 digit number, 8.
edit: This same phenomenon makes it look as if many of the lines intersecting the circles are skewed to the left, but I've gone back many times to play with them and they should be pretty close. Suffice it to say this is the last time I make a map with army circles. (Army pyramids is the way to go, just you wait and see!)

Qwert, troll somewhere else. As I've said in other topics, you must pick a 'centralizing' point, to give the effect of centralization across the board. This map has effectively done that I believe.

Qwert, I'm not going to debate you, but I will tell you what I did.
1. I chose a symmetrical one digit number to work with - "8" - because any other number would be appear off-center.
2. I had the benefit of working on a grid, so as long as one number in a row or column lines up they all do.
3. I explained my process along the way and responded to questions/concerns.
I think these look pretty good.
