Done.

AndyDufresne wrote:Also, it seems a few of the country division lines aren't quite the same, thickness or boldness wise. Take for instance, Victoria and New South Wales, compared to Queensland. If possible, make all the lines across the map around the same boldness or such.


Done.

And done.

Could the Adeleide-Mt. Gambier river crossing be moved down a tiny bit?

Looks a little off to me because of the way the river turns right beside it.

Other than that this map looks perfect, and interesting too. All those 3 border continents... shall be interesting to see how it plays out.

No, the latest update was on Jan 7. Those problems have been resolved.

I'll consider moving the river crossing if it causes a problems for others. The main problem with moving the crossing is I don't want it too close to the coast. That's the reason for its current placement.

Update

- Fixed Mt. Gambier/Eureka border.
- Left Adelaide/Mt. Gambier river crossing as is, it is too close to the coast to move any further south.

Fair enough, I can live with that.

The only thing which still looks wrong to me is the river sticking into the middle of Tamworth. Do you not think it might me less intrusive if it finished nearer the border?

Lake Eyre is a one-step territory to cross from one side of the map to the other. South Australia is also the only state to border all others. That's why there's the extra army bonus. :)
