I believe that my initial concern with the colors was that I couldn't tell the region borders from the territory borders (or was that another map?). That problem was solved. As for whether or not I can match the regions with the colors... well, not exactly, but I can live with it as is. With ten regions and a soft color scheme, I don't think you're going to find ten colors that I can tell apart. The ideal solutions for me would be either adding either region names to the map or the creation of a small map, but even without that I will be able to work things out based on my limited knowledge of the region (I assume the Syria region is the one that includes the Syria territory, Italian probably includes Italian, etc.) and a little help from BoB.
I'm looking over the gameplay stuff, and I'm not seeing anything obviously in need of fixing. Giving a few more pixels to the Yerevan-Bitlies border (and other border in that area) would still be a good thing.
Is the Edirne/Constantinople arrow necessary?
How are we on bonuses?? Any other concerns from the Foundry?
And visually I agree with that bit about the star not suggesting ports... maybe instead of making it port-like, you came up with something entirely British looking, since they are British ports? Some kind of British naval insignia? Crown?

Couple things:
on the small map, the army looks a pixel too high in british kuwait.
Also, I'm wondering if perhaps there isn't a more elegant solution to having the "port" icon so far away from the name and army circle for anglo-egyptian sudan. Does the port really need to be there in the first place? That area's already pretty lousy with ports.

yes the pixel is 1 too high.
i'd like to leave the tert name where it is as it fills that real estate.
Port Sudan was important to the British Government delegates in Khartoum during the period, as well as being an arrival/destination point for T E Lawrence reporting from Jiddah. I would imagine it would also be a destination for shipping between Alexandria and Port Aden, so i'd like to leave it there.

The Akbah port symbol looks significantly smaller than all the other port symbols on the large. The Anglo-Egyptian Sudan one looks too small on the small.

Akbah was OK. It was Port Sudan that was smaller and missing it's drop shadow. Fixed. Please F5

Are you sure Akbah is okay on the large? It looks so much smaller than the others...

Must be some kind of illusion...or I'm going crazy...
Oh well, nice job on the crowns. I much prefer them to the stars.

Mmmmm, you are changing you're mind lately.
Crowns are a lot nicer now IMHO.

Since there doesn't seem to be any outstanding gameplay concerns being discussed, and mine have all been addressed, I guess there's nothing left for me to do here.
British Kuwait is really busy - you can't even see the land under there anymore. Maybe pull the army circle off the land entirely and just float it over the territory name?
I like the crowns, but the color doesn't seem to fit the map's overall palette. (Says the colorblind gameplay guy!)

If we are keeping the crowns, could you change the constrast between the colors of the crowns slightly to make it a little more? The orange-yellow blends in with the red.
Also, they seem rather jagged round the edges. Possibly smooth them out a little?
Two other points, all the lines between the territories in Mesopotamia are different. The line between Bitlis and Van does not extend far enough by 1 or two pixels.

Contrast given at 36.

They look fine to me.

Mesopotamia lines are fine, they are consistent and all the same.
The pixelation issue resolved - caused by using more blur rather than gaussian blur.
