Qwert...here is a solution to the bonuses....are you happy with these?

I think it all looks scrumptious. The bonuses seem good to me.
There are some minor positional tweaks (an Ankh crowding an "e" here, Amente sitting a bit close to a divider there) but I'm sure those are last-minute adjustments, waiting for all of the changes to be locked down.

Sparqs...those little adjustments as above are made in the map below:

Ah. Hey. Wow, great! If you are making little tweaks:
How about moving the Amente in the right-side cartouche up 1 pixel?
Perhaps shift "Afterlife held" so that it is centered under "Ankh - for each"?
Maybe give a tiny bit more horizontal space to the Scarabs and Credits sections of the center cartouche?
It certainly looks fine the way it is, but someone here will point out that the appearance of the D:Amente on the map is further outside the norm than that of its cousins.
But when I get down to that kind of nit-picky, its time to be done. Next I'll be advising you to drop the transparency on that star pixel by 2%, and then where will we be?

Sorry if I have overlook this discussion (I didn't read the complete thread), but isn't the extra bonus for Afterlife a bit big with 2. You only have to take 1 extra territory without having an extra border.
Same for Eternal Life, but then you have to take a territory that other players also need to have an extra bonus. So maybe you should reverse the bonusses: 1 for Afterlife and 2 for Eternal Life (?)
i dunno about other people only i serious dislike the robber e1 or robber d1 names its really annoying in the namelist if you play games like chinese chekers i suggest maybe give some nice names.

dunno about other people's thought though
Thanks Lone.Prophet for your comments.
Do you have suggestions as to what to call them that would be nice that includes the term ROBBER, as this is part of this map concept?
Also, if you find E1 or E2 annoying in Chinese Checkers, please get used to it, as there is the Battle of Actium coming that uses Ca for tert names and you will find that really annoying.
Sorry.

instead of robbers you could use names of famous pyramid explorers

OK, sorry for that. I already thought it must have been discussed before.
