Should I make the Goldmines worth +1? If I did, I'd probably put a 1 way passage from Sunnysido to it.

this still needs a lot of graphics work, we're making leaps and strides, but we're not there yet. I'd like to see some alternate color schemes as well as some options with the rivers

The first CC board that gives you aids!

Any suggestions on color schemes? I can try a few different possibilities and will experiment over the next few days, but if anyone has any killer ideas, I'd be glad to try if they want to give me a color pallatte (remember - 9 continents).

Also - if you could weigh in:

1. Should Goldmines be worth +1? (possibly reducing the total continent value by 1)?

2. What do you think of the rivers? (A few people have complained but I really like them)

3. Any other suggestions/additions/formatting concerns/playability issues?

Finally (if you know): What are the next steps? How does this actually become a map? (beyond what is in the FAQs)

Hrm...on the small map the text is a little small..my eyes water.

Titles are nice and straight.

I know you probably don't want to move borders much probably, but it is crowded in kroonstadt. That area is much less crowded as a whole now, however.

I would like to see another option on the rivers. And the colours.

Keep it up!

Take out the new SA flag.
Our current flag is only 13 years old AND you have other Southern African states in your map - This flag can't be the only flag on the map.

OK - You guys suggested I explore alternate color schemes. I have also increased foilage and sharpened the legend. I have three colors schemes to try out:

5.1a

5.1b

5.1c

Please give me feedback. I hope this can become a board in the game.

I can't find it, but I swear that there was a good looking, simple version without all the clutter. Has the consensus been to go with all the crazy jungles and rivers and stuff? I'd like to see an advancement of the cleaner, neater version myself.

I prefer the colours in a. But I don't like the blue of the southern continent, looks too close too water. Maybe use one of the darker greens from b.

I do not care for c.

Legend is a lot more clear.

Cheers,
