I still think you need to work on ISTANBUl abit more...Maybe make the river abit smaller and the land more visablly touching with the adjacent Land...

Ive already asked about it and you didnt Reply Keyogi.

Ps Also nice Snake lol

I Love this map. Clean lines, simple but good graphics. Armies will be easy to see... Excellent job.

The only thing that i would change is the drop shadow on all sides of the land masses. makes the oceans look beveled or raised. Just a personal opinion - however not something that fret over. I can't wait to play !!

Congratulations. In keeping with the Parchment theme, you have (re)made a fine map and given it a distinct personality which was the only thing that was lacking, for its one of the best playable ones around!
Exaltations.

April 20
- Moved Arabia label

Comments
I couldn't find a better position for Egypt. All the continent labels are roughly centred, so having Egypt all the way down the bottom looked odd. I chose the new Arabia position based on the fact every other continent label was interesected by borders. I originally moved the Arabia label West but it stood out, so I moved it South-East instead.

Is Istanbul satisfactory or does it still need more work?

Hmm I don't know if this has been discussed before, but for a new player on this map it might not seem clear that you cannot attack from Syria to Taurus. Perhaps the mountain range needs to be a bit clearer on the Western side.

the continent colours have been discussed extensively and everybody agreed the current ones are perfect.
