Жұқтыру: I think what I'll do is have different colours for each of the Kievan Rus' Principalities as if they were separate nations, but also have a Bonus for Kievan Rus'. Does that sound good?

Yes, I think that would be the best course of action.

What are you going to make the Baltic region? Divided into tribes and big bonus? Or one big bonus? Or some small bonuses

I think I'll divide it into Ethnic regions, so there'll be 'Prussians,' 'Curonians,' 'Livonians,' and 'Ests.'

Just wondering, where do you get the territory names? I can imagine getting them in the actual states, but getting the names of regions of people must be more difficult.

Well, I've got some of them from maps showing the regions of the time, but I'm afraid there isn't much information that's very specific, so I've been forced to get most of them from Google Maps. I know I shouldn't really do this, but I don't have many options at the moment, and people don't really even notice the name of the territories once they're playing the map, anyway.

Put something in the gap between Alania and Rus'. I realise information may be sparse, but no excuses. I believe the Cumans were in the Northern Caucaus, along with the Kypçaks in the south.

Also, are you sure that Alania was a kingdom at this point? I don't know exactly myself; information on this is very sparse, but I'm inclined to believe no.

Also, I think that you should do something Kingdom of the Isles. The Kingdom of the Isles was a vassal state of Norway until the 1200s, so you could create a Norwegian Domain bonus.

I'm taking a break on the map for a bit at the moment, I've got behind on a few things, but when I start again, I'll see to your recommendations.

Well I think it's ready now, so assuming there are no problems Fizzer has with it, it will be public tomorrow.

Waiting for publication

It's pending public at the moment.

You decided to keep the Southern Arabian counries and Ethiopia isolated. Interesting choice but I'm not sure that is the best idea. I mean, the area you missed is very close to Mecca and Medina- pretty much the ultimate goal of the crusades and the centre of the Islam faith.

Jerusalem was the goal - Mecca and Medina weren't important for the Christian Crusaders.

Great map, invite me if you need testers

Sorry, but we've moved past the testing stages. You'll be able to use it whenever Fizzer checks the Pending Public list, hopefully that will be today.

Still pending lol

Are you sure? some maps went public yesterday, has it been declined.

It hasn't been declined, but I took it off 'pending public' a couple of times to fix some things. If they work in a queue-based system, then this is understandable.

They've finally made it public, thank you all for your suggestions.

TOP RATED MAP ON WARLIGHT!
Congrats! :)
