The basic idea is a map of Western Europe and Great Britain, in which the only playable territories are the traditional Celtic 7 nations. Until the 2nd century BC The Celts lived across the whole of central and western Europe. Around the reign of Julius Caeser the Romans began to push the Celts out of mainland Europe, until they were limited to the fringes of western Europe and the Islands of Great Britain and Ireland. Later in AD times the Normans invaded great Britain and pushed the Celts out of the heart of the Island. The only areas left with a Celtic cultural presence became known as the Celtic 7 Nations. Ireland, Scotland, Wales, The Isle of Man, Brittany, Cornwall, and Galicia. Now a days the only real "Nation" amongst them is Ireland, however the Celtic languages in those regions are still spoken and modern nationalist movements are reviving the culture in some areas.

Territories: currently 30
Bonuses: 7, with 2 territories that belong to no bonus (Celtic sea and London)

The Celtic sea diminishes by one each turn
London auto deploys +1

I'm a bit worried... when you reduce the size to fit the limits, some territories may be too small to fit the army numbers... especially in the small version...

Other than that, it seems interesting, but... I'd recommend focusing on your first project and seeing it through first. You'll learn lots of stuff in the process, so afterwards it will be easier to work on your second map.

Yeah I figure that that's a good idea, I just wanted to throw this out there since I already had the map. Since there are so many things I haven't worked out yet I figure it'll just give me more time to take in feedback and tweak things before, it's ready for actual submission.

I'd say keep working. You should call it as The Celtic Battle. I'd like to play it.

natty will be right, but the exact island size does not have to be proportional.. i like the idea man
