arrange the legend by colour, so it flows, at the moment its too random

Hi guys.

I've been waiting for this map for a good while and now I find it in the discarded heap?! :( I sincerely hope it will be completed, quenched and made available.

I agree that we should maybe change the wording from "continents" to "provinces". Furthermore, the landlocked countries are independent from South Africa, so I'm not exactly sure why (was it Oak?) asks for port access to Lesotho through the Freestate - which is part of South Africa.

Anyway, please release this one as soon as possible!!!

Cheers

I think the map looks cool. Good colour and art work. I can't see any problems witht he bonuses. To see if it really works though, I guess you would have to play it.

I'd really like to finish this map, but I got a little irritated with the slow 'foundry process' after I took a time out to get married, honeymoon and then a baby a 11 months later.

What do I need to do to get this back on track?

if the original mapmaker wants to resume work on a map, the original mapmaker may contact a CA to have their map moved out of the Scrap Heap and placed back in the appropriate forum (based on stamps).

Ask to Mr.Benn ;)

It's always good to see maps coming back into development. As it's been some time since the map was put to one side, the best thing to do is to get an update, and then we'll put you back into the foundry.

Let's get the boat back on the road ;-)

Maybe someone else can finish it if that brings the map back on track.

Is there someone who wants to do that.

Which would be mine... though I think its significantly different from this one and that the two could live side by side.
