no, I fairly sure cause of the grey walls, and I'm sure this has been answered before, but is it +3 or +5 for a single castle/village, or an entire region would make more sense to me :?

sorry to say this: but it seems a bit green to me, maybe a bit more variation? (if you want it green because of the grass, then make different colors of green)

what are the grey boundires?.... they look like cliffs or something...

also i think you have enough room to put territory NAMES.... but probably not on the small map tho.

Gimil...nice going on this one....

Spelling - a little indulgence here if i may -
"Castle can bombard territories within their kingdom"

There are several things that I noticed CC posters never get correct, and i have several typos frequently also....but
1. "to many noobs" should be "too many noobs"
2. "it is there map" should be "it is their map"
3. "your going to do that" should be "you're going to do that"
4. "there going to town" should be "they're going to town"

Size
Is this the large or small version, I think large correct?
Whichever way, size restrictions still apply at this time unless you have special dispensation or are going to wait until the size restrictions maybe change, for this map to be FFed. As i am not going to read all 24 pages of postings, please advise me your intentions on this for this map.

XML
Are you planning something like:
Feudal Empire 2
Feudal Empire 3
Feudal Empire 4
Feudal Empire 5

Geography
The map appears very flat at present....are u planning some updates to give the land some undulation i.e. rise and fall topography.


I can see you're not quite finished so that's all i'll comment on for now.

Good work!

Yeah, you are going to need to shave at least 5 px off the width. Possibly 45.

5px is easily possible

45px is probably do-able

Yeah, 840 is the very max we can allow right now. 800 is much preferred, but if you are running into space issues 840 can be tolerated.

Alrighty. As much as I love green, just not that much on a map.

Keep up the good work gimil :D

not as good as the last castle suggestion, but if your looking for ideas (and constrained for space latter on), check out the castle in the Malta Map that's currently in the final forge for another possibility.
