Thanks for the 30%. It's definitely usable now, and I'm not straining to see the colors. Game on!

Useable, and much better than the 60%, but still a downgrade from the Classic we all know and love.

Shoddy job handling all this as well.

I can live with the new look in general but I've got to give the thumbs down on the legend, eh!

Well, to be more specific, is the color shadow under the continent names necessary?

I still think an ever better solution would be to make all the countries much lighter colors...pastels....as in the some of the other maps...then no backing circles/shadows would be needed at all :)

At least you are trying to make improvements..and we all know that no matter what you do some people will complain :lol:

I congratulate you most of all on the democratic way you handled this adjustment from white 60 to white 30 :)

I agree with everything Rozebud said.

Though I think the idea might work, I doubt the community would let it fly. Notice the outcry from the slight brightening that happened when the touchup was uploaded (not of the army circles, but of the continent colors). Think of what would happen if we tried pastels! :shock:

i just find it annoying that all these people complain, AFTER it was released, most of the complainers never once went into the foundry topic, i mean it was announced ages ago, couldn't you have at least complained before it was released?
