I think the Crowns clash a bit - and in Cyprus it almost disappears.

I am not doing a poll for this one.
Final. The crowns stay.
I believe they are perfectly clear.

Why is the land on the far side of the Caspian sea not greyed out as non-playable?
Also, is the sea route from Alexandria one way?

1. Because that piece of land doesn't matter to this particular gameplay and i thought it looked better with the orange, but i have changed it just for you because i was feeling nice this morning, please refresh your browser.
2. i don't mean to be offensive, but do you need glasses, can't you see that is a one-way arrow?

So I know you've gotten your gameplay stamp, thus you can tell me to take a long walk off a short pier if you don't like the following, but here it is: why not combine the italians and french into one 2-terit +1 bonus?

Incandenza...normally you know that i am quite receptive to most things offered to me...but this time that pier is looking very good for you...and i'll be running behind you chasing you with a baseball bat.
NB....on a more serious note, because this is more historical, i would prefer to keep them apart...they normally are quite challenging together.

Sorry for the delay cairns, just finished my last exam no more than 20 minutes ago studying has took much of my attention.
A few things look a little out of synch on this computer, but it may be that this computer im on just now (on in my university) hasn't got very good resolution on a large minitor. If I remeber correctly it wasn't anything like what I am seeing just now on another monitor. So for the time being I will stamp it and check it again later on a better computer when i get the chance!

Well done old buddy.
What do you know about map making, bitch?

The city shown in the map "Constantinople" is NOT correct. It is "Istanbul"!
You need to correct this mistake!

no, but i will....
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Istanbul
Republic of Turkey
Main article: Turkey
When the Republic of Turkey was founded by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk on October 29, 1923, the capital was moved from Istanbul to Ankara.
The city's Turkish name İstanbul was already in popular use among the local population, but the international name Constantinople also remained in use until the Turkish Postal Services Law of March 28, 1930, according to which all foreign countries were asked to solely use the name Istanbul also in their languages and their postal service networks.
Therefore, on the basis of this quote above and the maps, i would be inclined to stick with Constantinople
