Risk 2210 has a sepperate moon map. perhaps we could expand that to have more territories and use it here.

It is possible but there are copy right issues, also only an addition of the moon would not make much of a map, if you like space see here
This was in production but got recycled, it may give you ideas

I like how it's colonized, but with the Yellow city, could you make it's name a bit clearer.

Another suggestion;

Maybe make 8 cities and possibly people could start off with the cities, but it may be too much like fuedal wars, I'm not sure.

like i said it's really rough draft.

And hey its Fuedal Wars.... IN SPAAAAACCCEEEE!!!!! lol jk

but the yellow one is irouquios(spelled better though).

the reason its so big is so the names could fit in.

and i was thinking that the eighth city could be on the moon or something.

EDIT:
Territory #s:
New Russia(New Moscow):12
Tribe Lands(iroqois(SP?)):10
New Outback(New Sydney):13
4th Reich(New Berlin):11
Lands of Ra(Alexandria):14
Neo Napoleononic Empire(New Paris):11
Nuevo America(New Boston):18
Total:89

Id love to have another space map, we have to few :)

If you are going to make this yourself, then I feel obliged to direct you to the space tutorials over at Solar Voyager.

Also, your bodies of water are to large IMO. Make your planet first, then create the bodies of water according to the texture, and then make the territories. Its the best way to do it :)

I have also accumulated quite a few space tutorials, so if you require one, let me know :)

What exactly does Alpha Centuari mean?

Also, I suggest that you not have mountains as impassables, as unless you have this as a flat map, they will be harder to see as mountains.

Maybe try using GIMP. It's free and has many more tools than paint. Basically a free photoshop.

I personally would recommend Photo Impression 5, it is less complicated then GIMP but still very affective

i just don't have the time, the patience, skill, or programs requiried to see this map to quenching. So i would love to see you or someone else take this idea and run with it. i could send my thoughts about it and give my overall view of what i want it to be but i'm a dreamer and not a doer lol

I might try something, give me a few days and we might see a draft but I would let anyone else have it if they want

oh and alpha centuari is one of the most likely star system nearby that could have a habitable world
