Europa [Quenched]

[MrBenn]

Update

• I have adjusted the England-France route to be more vaguely like the Dover-Calais route... It doesn't quite make those points, but is more visible now.
• I have made the sea route points very slightly smaller, and slightly crisper. I prefer them now.
• You might notice some grey 3's on Kaliningrad, Belgium, Switzerland and Cyprus - these will be designated as starting neutrals... there was always going to be some anyway, and these points will alleviate sthe probability of being dropped a bonus.
• The Pyrenees Mountains have disappeared again - I have mixed views on this, but think it is clearer without them; especially as they were not serving any function.
• Consequently the Andorra name and army number have been moved

Benn, hurry up and finish the XML so this thing can be quenched!

[MrBenn]

As you asked so nicely Zeak, here it is - EuropaXML08.xml

I have moved the coordinates for Andorra to correspond with the move I made to the position of the 'circle' on the map
I have added the starting neutrals for Belgium, Switzerland, Cyprus and Kaliningrad

Yes

[tenio]

sorry if this question was asked before, but after seeing this map for the first time,

are greenland, iceland and faroe part of the scandivian territory/bonus?

and is it just me or is transcontinetal bonus too high? seems as if 4 armies with only 2 borders is pretty high...

[MrBenn]

Yes

and is it just me or is transcontinetal bonus too high? seems as if 4 armies with only 2 borders is pretty high...

The Transcontinental region also includes the Russian exclave of Kaliningrad, which is at least two territories away from Russia, and increases the number of borders to 3; one of which is separated from the rest of the region by a minimum of two territories...

[Thezzaruz]

There was some discussion a while back about whether I should use Nordics or Scandinavia as the name for that region. Technically the Scandinavian Peninsular does only include Sweden Norway and Finland; although I was under the impression that the word Scandinavia is used synonymously with Nordic Countries, the official name of the region. Personally I prefer the word Scandinavia as it has a bit more character than Nordic which is a translation of Northern...
Any other thoughts?

Nordic Region and not Countries. If you talk about the term Nordic Countries then that is referring to Nordic People and used about most anyone on mainland europe from germany and above, way old and not used nowdays.

But as I said, yes Scandinavia is often used by english speaking people even though it is wrong. In just the same way as many people outside the brittish isles doesn't make any distinction between great britain/UK/england.
I personally really don't mind scandinavia as I do live in it but to someone from greenland/iceland/the faroes (and probably most finns too) it would be the same as an irish/scottish would feel about calling the BI continent for england.

The bottom line is that it is incorrect to call it scandinavia, but if you like it to stay then I won't pester you about it anymore as I can live with it (or rather live in it ).

OK, I have renamed Scandinavia to be Nordic Region - I prefer Region to Countries for a couple of reasons and it is probably going to cause less confusion/angst in the long run

PS - do I need to re-submit the XML, as the only change I have made is to a continent name, which only appears once in the file?

[tenio]

and when holding the kgd it's plus 5...idk that's just what i see lol

Region is much better than countries here. Many thanks for taking this on board and sorry that I didn't notice it earlier in the process.

This has most likely been mentioned - so sorry, but why is greenland not in the mini map?

The minimap has been cropped slightly to fit on the legend.... but I've updated it with a slightly moved Greenland and Iceland:

i think the title shoyuld be the one with the horse on one side and the moon on the ohter but if u can it would look even better if u had the stars with that!!

Thanks for the input... While I liked the title with the moon on it, in the end I don't think it fitted with the style of the rest of the map. The title I've ended up using is a combination of the best bits that people liked the most

[AndyDufresne]

Many thanks Forza.
