Given that both maps meet FF standards to begin with... i don't see much point in having this one stick around too long.

Oh, and we need the small and large on the first page please.

what do you think about the wood horizontal? I feel like it makes the map look less vertically long..

Yes, same as it is in the existing FNNA map.


Interesting, then there is no reason to have a canoe between Nemene and Coahuiltee

it just makes it more clear that you can cross right there. that piece is clearly Coahulitec, and it clearly can attack Natchez.

Gorgeous! I'm tempted to ask Tisha for a high resolution copy of the original file to print a real map :)

Two things spring to mind before we move this map on... possibly scoot the bird thingy close to the "one troop for every..." words. And what is the picture of the Indian on a horse from? I hope we don't have to worry about copyrighted images.

Combine and edit the XML files for First Nations of North and South America. I'm guessing the 888's fit okay since they did before, so I think it's unnecessary.

Not that easy... there are new territories... it wouldn't hurt to see how the digis will look anyways, its probably required... not just guessing that its gonna be OK.

If you move Choctaw over closer to the canoe, and then move Muscogee about 3 or 4 pixels to the left you should have room then.

The little wisp of connection is Alaska is a little lost because of the digits. And so is the little region actually.

Move the army number away from the territory, draw a small arrow or line pointing from the numbers to the territory.
