haven't talked to gimil but I'm guessing he's just busy/without internet access
Oak, if you could add this
<neutral>3</neutral>
to the MS (Mediterranean Sea) territory, I'd appreciate that immensely. If necessary, I can add it and upload it to sendspace. Thanks again for hosting the XML, btw.

If that doesn't satisfy everything I don't know what will. Good job, Gimil!

if oak could host that again, it fixes the starting neutral and the new coordinate for AT1 on the small map.
apologies for the image quality. I just posted to paint and did it really quick

Re: Land And Sea p25
gimil and edbeard....just two things i wish to comment on...
1.some of the arrows look lesser quality that others and aren't totally consistent both sides, is this because you have them transparent?
2. is it possible to see the maps for reference to centering using the 88s please.

2. is it possible to see the maps for reference to centering using the 88s please.

small (note that one circle here was moved but in my updated xml ( http://www.sendspace.com/file/uffstt ) it is centered. just needs hosting from someone kind.

Re: Land And Sea p28
Quick question,
Is it possible to have the same army number show up twice on the map? Im asking this because of the territories on both sides of the map (that go around the globe). I dont know whether that would solve some (if there are any) confusion issues, but perhaps its some food for thought, not only for this map.
Sorry for being slightly offtopic here

Nope - this isn't available I'm afraid... plus it might actually cause more confusion.

Re: Land And Sea p28
I have some little nitpicks that can be done in the Forge:
in the legend you use a period after the second chunk of text, but not the first two. You could go either way and call it style, but be consistent.
circles look much better. you may want to swap the EU3 circle and title, so long counts/counts with color codes won't hit the title.
---The Land & Sea Map has reached the ‘Final Forge’ Stage. The map has passed rigorous gameplay and graphics examinations, and major concerns have been addressed. If you have any other concerns, please make your voice heard. If after a reasonable amount of time there has not been any objection or protest, the map will be deemed finished with the 'Foundry Brand' of approval and will be submitted for live play. As long as there is still discussion or posts that have yet to be commented on, the map will remain in Final Forge until said discussion has reached the conclusion that the map has reached its final and polished version.
Post questions and concerns if any.

Re: Land And Sea p28
great map. The only thing I dont really like is that antarctica seems a bit blocky. I think if you made the borders wavy then Im fine, looks wicked

thanks for the post but if you look at the territorial claims images on wiki, they have straight lines

Nice job on FF, and I although I agree it'd look better in Antarctica for the borders to be wavy, like in 2.1 they have to be straight.
