Digging this map hard.

It might just be my old eyes, but in several places it's difficult to tell where an impassable river ends and a passable border begins. Is there any way to increase the contrast between the two?

I'm okay with it, but it does get a tad hard to tell around Tupinamba (excuse me if it's misspelled).

I agree--I keep misplacing armies because the borders around Payagua/Charrua are unclear.

Blue is water, black is border.
Don't see a problem here guy's. :-s

Well obviously some people do. Not everyone's eyes see things the same way and I'm telling you it's very unclear in places.

I am having no problem distinguishing borders from impassable.

This would be the most kick ass map imaginable :shock:

I agree! Though there are two Meso-Americas...

More on topic: Maybe it's just me, but if you look at the southern portion, if you manage to get Patagonia, South Andes, and Chilean, that's a rock solid 12 troops for a mere 4 borders. I mean, I can understand why the bonuses are what they are, but this seems a tad absurd. This has happened to me once in game and they easily swept the board once they got that southern third. I'll see if that happens in more games I play, but it's just a concern of mine. Nice work, Tish.

by **ScavengerType** on Fri Oct 22, 2010 11:23 pm

that would be an crazy map.

However I think everyone is wrong about the bonuses being a problem. In actuality this map is ridiculously like the NA map in it's architecture A lot of the mass in the greater Brazilian area is nearly totally undefendable (too many borders). In actuality the winner is almost always going to be someone who fights to gain the northern or southern tip. That is assuming a non escalating game. Don't forget that the bonus for taking the greater arctic area (including north east) in the North America map you can get a bonus of 16 on 4 borders. It's not as easy perhaps as in this map but nor is the bonus so great here.
