The rivers are too light in color. I wish the castles were more realistic and not so tinker-toy. It's would be nice to see some trees in there, this is a deforested land apparently.

Agreed.

Don't really agree, they look fine.

To build siege engines, one must harvest all the wood they can.

reduce the color more. It's too Caribbean and unrealistic. Add more trees too in great densities.

Personaly I think it looks fine but then again. I am just wanting to play this map so badly so i'd want get it released as soon as posibule XD

But imo if posibule something that would make it look better would be to maybe add some sort of like... small houses and such in like the castle areas if its posibule. Like outside the walls or something. To make it look like its populated aswell and not just a fortress there standing guard.

Water color. Might be made darker but tbh to me it dont matter much.

Just what I think would make it look better. Keep up the good work ^^

Darkened the trees to make them look fuller. Left the water, I don't wanna change the colour anymore. It seems to be a matter of personal taste rather than concern :)

the only colours that need changing are the text

the yellow/gold ones might be ok but the greens are not. I really need to focus to see the numbers

perhaps with the gold/yellow made the shadow darker so the numbers come out crisper

with the greens I think a different colour and/or larger text would help a lot

I am also in agreement, unfortunatly I can't find a better colour to fit with the map.

I think the shadows aren't dark enough

the problem right now is that the shadow blends in with the number especially the outside edges so you can't see the shape. you need more contrast on the outside to see the shape of the number properly

i like the eveness on the villages, b/c they all get the same bonus so why should there be more neutral armies on one than another. Refering back to Feudal War where the villages have different amounts of troops on them. So keep up the good work :D .

Agreed. Right now I find myself leaning in to get a good look at this map. Territory titles, regions names, river banks and borders lack needed definition, to the point where the fine line (creek?) through Magic 3 looked like a border at first glance.

The village names are far easier to read than the region names... Clan Rhu is especially muddled in the main map.

Any chance of the territory titles (numbers) being placed in the same location within the territory across the map? I find Warlords the easiest region to follow because most of the numbering is in the lower left corner of the territory.

Some territory like Xeu 1 and 2 will be troule with 2/3 digit army counts bumping into the territory name... you can carve out some more space for both of those terits by moving the Barb 10 border in a few pixels. There are some others like this as well - Tri 5, Feudal 1 - but those are the worst that I see.

Carry on gimster.
