I think the addition of the dots makes a big difference...

So lets see the small map with army coordinates (and link to regular)

The large map with army coordinates (and link to regular)

Along with a link to the XML.

The Final Forge period has concluded for the Fight for Alexander III's Empire map. All objections have had their time. The Foundry and I hereby brand this map with the Foundry Brand. Let it be known that this map is now ready for live play (barring any Lack vetoes).

Conquer Club, enjoy!

Here is the xml
http://www34.homepage.villanova.edu/dim ... mpire3.xml

Here is the report from the XML checker
Test results:

Warning: Country Aegean Sea does not appear in any continent

Warning: Country Mediterranean Sea does not appear in any continent

Warning: Country Caspian Sea does not appear in any continent

Summary: 3 warnings and 0 errors detected

Note that those warnings are what they are supposed to be. The seas aren't supposed to appear on any continent.

I'm playing a game with it right now, and I have to say it's incredibly fun. The mountain ranges are placed perfectly, and the seas really do add a nice element of strategy to the game.

Well done mate. I love it. :)

I've completed 4 realtime games on it and no complaints (I won 3). Very nice addition to the map arsenal. =D>

Where does everyone get this BIZANTIUM word spelt with an I from.
Are we too lazy to move our fingers to the Y on the keyboard? :wink:

And of course darkmagus is correct according to Wikipedia.

Byzantium is the latinization of Byzantion - the original Greek word.

Well researched!

Is anyone else confused as to why Lydia doesn't connect with Thrace?
Byzanitium is connect to Thrace, even though there is a little bit of water in between the country, so what isn't Lydia connected, seeing as there is a little but of yellow land connected to Thrace?
lol, i'm always trying to attack from one to the other, gaah!

He last played in December last year...
