Iberia [Quenched]

[Bad Speler]

good point, but i think i will instead move the bridge from La Rjoja to Zaragoza

[Marvaddin]

Is really there a country called Gibraltar?

Well, I still think Portugal area is very crowded... and the west area is too powerfull with 4 small countries. I strongly suggest you remove some more countries in Portugal (13 is too much, isnt it??) and merge 2 continents to create a medium one in North and central area of Portugal.

Spain looks well for now, although we dont know how it will fit once you put another font for names. I would just remove Gibraltar and La Rioja for now, since looks like these territories are too tiny to be used... and maybe same to Andorra, I dont know if I would put that minor country in the map.

[Bad Speler]

yes theres a country called gibriltar its a british territory. I think you are right that i shouldnt put such minor countries on the map, i will make the changes you suggested.

[boberz]

a suggestion to try and solve portugal issue and many people may think this is terrible and say so if you do but you could try:

merging beirus and alentejo continents then merging territories beja and faro

and/or

put asturias in galicia then merge la coruna and ponteredra

(bonuses may need adjusting.

[Bad Speler]

Galicia isnt part of portugal, and i would like to keep Galicia the way it is, but i like your other suggestions.

[boberz]

i did know that but i thought it might lower the importance of the west but yeah as i said u know more about this region than me

[Ruben Cassar]

Just a thought...maybe you could use Madrid, Lisbon, Barcelona, Valencia and Seville as major cities and use those instead of Andorra and Gibraltar for the bonus?

[Bad Speler]

Here's the next update.



Changes:

Merged Berius and Alentejo and called it Portuguesa Sul.
Experimented with thinner borders
Got rid of Andorra and Gibraltar
Changed a few colours
Merged Beja and Faro
Merged La Rioja and Navarre
Moved a bridge from La Rioja to Zargoza

I agree with this, not only Valencia, because its near Madrid... But we would need adjust bonuses of the regions.

Do you know that Portuguesa Sul and Portuguesa Norte are like South Portugal and North Portugal? The other names, like Alentejo, would be more interesting, I think. Anyway, i would again mention I would move the little continent of Portugal to the Southern area, so its not near to Galicia (another minor continent). Hmmm, are you sure that "Catalonia" is spelled correctly??

Some minor things to change: colours of Catalonia and La Mancha are very alike. There is a gray line near Valencia name in the legend. Is there a sentence in the map? "Porto Real Bragança Zamora Valladolid", lol. Need replace some names

For now, I like the title, but dislike the textures of both land (it looks like paper, looking at France it becomes clear) and sea (it looks like fire, but blue, I think... when I see the area near Portuguese coast, it remembers me fire...)

About playability, Im most worried about the excess of borders of some areas, mainly Aragon, La Mancha and Leon.

Keep the good work, friend

Heres the ironic bit. I used a texture under the category paper because i thought it looked like a good enough texture. I guess that means I need to change it.

[boberz]

thanx for experimenting with my idea and i like it a lot. THis map is lookin good now and the playability is a lot better in my opinion.

[Ruben Cassar]

I am not 100% sure but I think that should be Catalunya in Spanish...or is that Catalan? Any Spanish members to confirm please?

[Bad Speler]

you guys are right, it seems to be spelt cataluña. And it turns out i've been using some other English names thinking they were Spanish.

[Bad Speler]

Here's the next update, to many changes to list:

[reverend_kyle]

I sort of dont like the bright colors, I think a nice pastel set would go better with the texture you have.

[capwiz]

I don't really like the fount for the continent.

But thats just meh

[dafranca]

Once again, the gameability rocks in this map! My sugestion is to decrease the font of the bonus legend, and add a table and try to fit the bonus legend. Also the font of the legend of "Important Cities" should be smaller them the others legends

[Wisse]

decreese the legend font, make the picture a little bit bigger so that the name doesn't go away in the corner

[Bad Speler]

Ive tried darkening it a bit, and ive adjusted the legend. Im not sure how putting a frame around this one would be practical.

[happysadfun]

It makes me think of the light in the book of lost things. too dark. maybe just reform the textures altogether. If you're gonna have important cities, have one per continent, and you have yo include porto. Are they a part of ther logical continents?

[AndyDufresne]

I don't really see the need for important cities. Interesting idea, but I'm not a big fan of it for this map.

[zyxaz]

Hmm Porto is too close to Lisboa and in the same continent...maybe La Coruna would be better...

[Bad Speler]

I agree with you, but everyone else seems to want them. If it were up to me id just keep lisboa and madrid.

[Bad Speler]

Ive put a poll up on the city bonuses.
