Re: A Real Map of France Please
in a 500 by 500 map i had no prob with the territories at 10 point font. you might need to put them in non-italic double or triple line format, like
'Loire-
et-
Marne' ....
'Loire-
et-
Marne' ....
Re: A Real Map of France Please
My dear theallnewbatman
I already asked twice a France map revamp. And if you read the actual map thread it has been asked even more. The problem is to have an authorisation from CC to override the veto from rev_kyle. Then we can dream of a new France map. Btw this is the reason I did an 18th century version.
So if you can gather enough interest around it I'm ready to work on graphics.
About gameplay maybe instead of the département names can we put the préfecture (main city) names

Conquer Club can use a map image for as long as it sees fit---so theoretically we could abandon a map in favor of another.
If there is interest in a real France Map REVAMP, get in touch with the C.A.'s.

Re: A Real Map of France Please
i only put an accent if there's no capital letter I in the île-de-france 
et merci for the input pomona!! I had thought of the préfectures/capitals of each region but i think that is another map...
i would also like to see an 1848 paris map of the revoloution and/or storming of the bastille!!
ciao ciao

Re: A Real Map of France Please
on my map it's easy to fit region names in they fit perfectly 2.5mm size and seem easy to see but might just be that it's to big but it seemed smaller than led's map

Re: A Real Map of France Please
Soo is this project dead? What is the status? I was looking around and I would like to try my hand at making a map. I have a nice image to start with. Anyhow I am not gonna step on toes if someone has this project already. If not I want it .
