I like the continents' colors.

But - I cannot help finding Switzerland, Italy and Spain to be a bit annoying graphically. The bright colors/patterns gets to much attention from my brain. Perhaps making those no-go areas less visiable / more neutral?

It's just that there are no such things on the East Front map. So it also looks a bit awkward having it on the West Fron one? Or?

Anyways, it was just something I thought of. It's up to you.

I think the flags there keeping his style alive and the theme of the 2 maps will compliment each other.

This is just an idea, but I think it would be really cool to put Switzerland in and give it a decent bonus to occupy it, with only one or two borders tops.

But the trick would be that when it starts off, Switzerland has like 12 neutral armies or something similar. I mean that is what the neutral player color is there for right?

This would accomplisht two things,
1- It would include Switzerland in the map

2- It could possibly stay neutral the whole game just like in the war. It would be kind of historical in a way.

What do you guys think?

Switzerland is staying the way it is. qwerts want the map to historically accurate of the wests front line. Adding Switzerland would push away the reality hes going for.

We could put Switzerland with 50 neutrals and no bonus. Then it would be historically accurate because probably nobody would attack it.

Sorry, that's a joke. People from that country are almost more full of themselves then us Americans, I don't want it on the map.

hes no worring he had problems with his last map so he's rather get it sorted just now rather than having this map run into 150 pages like his last one.

personally i think map is fine now, the colours are better than before, the swiss should not be a part of the map since they werent a part of the western front to begin with, adn im really excited for when this comes out.

to be honest, the eastern front map is kinda dull after playing 2 games on it. the western front looks to be a lot more interesting like it was in the real war.

If you think the Swiss did nothing on the western front you are wrong.

Because in Eastern front you have two side Russian And Germans,and you dont have neutral terittory.

I dont want to someon after 20 pages say"you colours is not good"

Switzerland stay neutral,and he will not be in play,end of discusion.

As concern of bonuses,first i must creat bonus box with helmets,then we can go discus of bonus value.

If you are having the 3 stars, you are better off having 39 territories, not the 42 that keyogi suggested.

Qwert. hi.
are you going to style this map like your eastern front map? It would look really good to have the pair.
and also if you did a map of the mediterranean, you could almost have a triptych....you know a three panel art piece. :)
