Thanks

How many neutrals do the Shields start with?

Does Venezia connect to both Lissa and Marche?

[Industrial Helix]

Shields neutral start 3 and auto-deploy 1.
Hungary on the Germany map has a neutral of 1, your choice of which territory though.

Lissa, Venezia and Marche all connect. Likewise for Cagliari, Calatafimi and Roma.

Here's the blank maps with adjusted signatures:

[Gilligan]

So Catalfimi connects to Roma? Just want to make sure so it doesn't get screwed up in Beta

PS - Which is Hungary? I don't know what it is in German

Looks like the top of the map is cut off (at least on my screen) for this one:

Small 88

The top part of "Tyrol" and the 88 beside it are cut off at the top. Not sure if that's an image issue or an XML issue.

[Gilligan]

That's image error... I'll get a new one up

[Industrial Helix]

I think its an image error... I'll take a look when i get a chance.

Calatafimi connects tot Roma

On the German map, Hungary is the brownish color with two territories. A Kiralysag Magyarorsag. Just pick a territory to make neutral 3.

It's my end, I cropped it too low when I tested the coordinates

Ok cool, its not a problem then. The image doesn't have to be perfect for the test, right?

You don't have to post all the images.
The links are enough, but if you feel friendly you can also add the link to the xml checker.

[Gilligan]

Forza AZ has okayed the Italian Unification XML! Now onto the German Unification... be back in a few days

[Industrial Helix]

Awesome news! Perhaps I'm gonna have three maps in Beta at the same time?

I wouldn't doubt it! 13 Colonies won't be out of Beta for a little while, and I'm halfway done with XMLs, then quench should be in a week or two?

[Gilligan]

Alright I have a nitpick - Does Ober. connect to Konigg.? It looks like a mountain but it it could be the border.

[Industrial Helix]

No it does not... I'll see if I can add a little mountain in there for further clarification.

EDIT: All better,

Much better

[AndyDufresne]

These are terrific maps Industrial Helix. And I really appreciate the clear objective rules you have set out. Glad to have you in the Foundry making maps, sincerely.

[MrBenn]

Belated congratulations on making it to the final forge!

[natty dread]

I can see a ton of coords that are off-center...

[Gilligan]

I can see a ton of coords that are off-center...

I know... I'm not sure that all of the circles on Italy are 22 px circles.

[natty dread]

Why would the circles be different sizes?

[Gilligan]

Look at Trieste. If you move it one px left, it will be too far left.

[natty dread]

Yeah, but usually the army circles are the same size, they're just copypasted from one circle... Though, here it seems to be the case that all the circles are the wrong size.

I'd suggest resizing the army circles, so that the numbers can be centered.

But now that I think of it... I don't see why these maps should even have army circles. All of the land area in the Italy map is quite light, so it'd probably do just as well without circles. Might be worth a shot?

Germany could scrap army circles as well, if it wasn't for east prussia... it's the only area that's too dark for numbers. Maybe if that area was made lighter, then remove circles?

[Industrial Helix]

Yeah... I'm looking into this... I did a quick check on germany and it looked like the circles were 22 px, I dunno about the Italian map...
