that stick is a bow and that funny map is an archer. it looks like a philistine archer to me but keyogi says is parthian so i'll trust him
a camel looks like a cliche so i like the archer better.

i wonder how far he can throw those arrows since his bow has no string on it.

Keyogi posted the original picture of the archer on page 22. You can see the string in that picture.

I'm not suggesting either. All I'm saying is your monitor must be set up signifcantly different to mine.
And this one's for you mibi, one lady in place of the other.

Oh wow this map looks awesome... keep up the great work
I actually like the colours.. it seems to fit a certain theme. However, some thicker lines for the continent might help distinguish a little bit

How are you meant to know without screwing your eyes up where the continents ends and start in Iran???
Well I'm with KEYOGI- I have no problem distinguishing any of the continent divisions. But I guess your eyesight problem cleared up if you're seeing it better now too
I really like the texture and coloring of the first gradient map you posted KEYOGI. A very nice blend of colors distinct enough to tell them apart, yet similar enough to all look like parchment.

Just a suggestion, I don't know if this has been discussed before, but could you make the borders between a continent and another bolder that the rest of the territory borders?

original + thick borders. those gradients draw the eye all over the place.
and i like that arabic snake charmer you put next to the legend.

I dont think gradient and thick borders are needed. So either original and thick borders or just gradient.
I prefer the gradient.

I cannot see any difference between #1 and #2. What are these gradients exactly?

#3 but if you can make the border a bit less thick it will be perfect

In each continent, the colour starts darker at one end and gradually gets lighter across the continent. I have a feeling you have some colour blindness, is this correct Ruben? Do you have a preference between the three?

Hmm... the original borders are drawn with a 1 pixel pen and the thicker ones are drawn with a 2 pixel pen. Pretty sure there aren't any 1.5 pixel pen options.

Hmm yes I am mild colour blind but to be honest I cannot see this gradient thing in #2 so I guess it's worse than I thought. Hehe.
I think #3 is best for me then.
