I think that he can't do something about the borders, are he has to redraw the whole map.

Looks much better now

On pixel level of your graphic editor you can erase some of the pixels so the borders look better. All borders the same size.

What can you do about the fonts

Then you maybe have to do that

And I liked the 3D effect you used on your earlier post.

Waddeneilanden: 5 territories, 2 incomming attack routes, 2 defending territories, bonus of 2
Noord-Nederland: 3 territories, 3 incomming attack routes, 3 defending territories, bonus of 3
Midden-Nederland: 6 territories, 4 incomming attack routes, 3 defending territories, bonus of 4
Holland: 7 territories, 5 incomming attack routes, 4 defending territories, bonus of 5
Utrecht: 2 territories, 7 incomming attack routes, 2 defending territories, bonus of 3
Zeeland: 5 territories, 2 incomming attack routes, 2 defending territories, bonus of 3
Zuid-Nederland: 7 territories, 4 incomming attack routes, 3 defending territories, bonus of 4

Total territories: 35

Some seem very nice already, but not many territories, see other people's posts where there may be added (if they post such info)

An attack route from Flevoland to Amsterdam would be nice, making Holland a 6 bonus continent
Zeeland perhaps a bonus of 2?

also, make the list in the order I gave them

Utrecht should have more than two territories...and perhaps less borders...

Change font colour in blue region to white for better visibility.
