the map looks better without army shadows. plus you don't have to do all that crappy tinkering to the circles, move 1 px left and 2 px up stuff.

so all in all it a great map. both graphics wise and gameplay wise.

It basically boils down to this. The army shadows make the numbers more legible.

However if you can play a bit with the background colours you can do without them and get rid of the tedious centring stuff.

But in the current state of the map the numbers are not legible enough on some backgrounds without the army shadows, so you either put back the army shadows or work on that issue.

Edit: Listen to a person who has been to the Benelux countries and loved them all. ;)

the numbers are just as visible without the numbers as with--
no army circles!

Oké, I see postive things about the map without shadowscircles.

I will work on the suggestions of the backgrounds.
Then I will place the next update and hopefully everybody can live with it.
Second of all, its off course a new format without shadowcirlces and its a challenge to make it possible.
