Asia Map - names not the same

Post by OwlLawyer »

On the map it says "SZECHUAN" but on the pull down for attacks and fortification, it reads "SZECHWAN". Not a huge deal, just thought I would mention it.

Yeah, it's been noticed before, but the cartographer doesn't seem to be around.

And why is the map named Asia, if on the actual map it says "Far East"? and also the key is not colour coordinated.

I could help change it, or would that be not allowed?

Really, this map have some problems...
But the worst one is corrected already... Do you remember the invisible borders in Siam continent?? :) Oh, and the invisible route between USSR and Japan!! :lol:

Sincerely, someone should correct these problems. About the name, whats the correct form?
