you're right, I think I'll just do cities for UK, that's probably easier. Although for some countries like Afghanistan I have almost exclusively used county names, which I think is too much trouble to change.

Oh, I also changed Eastern Russia, good you catched that.

Another thing I've noticed was Basrah, in Eastern Iraq, isn't included in the Iraq super bonus.

I feel uncomfortable that some island territories of home country were trimmed from the map :(

A bigger question related to this is what's the general rule to decide on which island to include or not. Currently the criterion looks not consistent to me: I saw Ireland, but no Taiwan. There are Corsica of France, Sicily of Italy, and Crete of Greece, but not Jeju of Korea, Okinawa of Japan, and Hainan of China.

A simplest rule coming to my mind is throwing off all islands to make the map "pure continental".

Also
Northern Wales -> Wrexham
Derry -> Derry/Londonderry (best keep both sides happy in that naming dispute)

I'll fix the names as you suggested. As for islands I did plan on adding them, but I haven't had the time yet :). I probably won't add Faroe Islands, because they're too far north.

Also about Indonesia and Philippines, should I add the or not? I will have to add Malaysia as it has quite a bit in mainland Eurasia, but I'm not too sure about Indonesia and Philippines.

Who is up for a test game? Multi-day FFA, 5 random spots, 0% luck, light fog. I will probably start it somewhere around next week.

Me too.

Also, I would add Indonesia and Philippines, but only if you can and/or have enough space.

I have just seen that you put all Kashmir in India. Be careful, as it's a disputed land, and most maps agree in this division: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Kashmir_region_2004.jpg

So, I would let Chinese borders as they are now, and I would give the four northwestern territories in Jammu and Kashmir to Pakistan.

It seems I don't have enough room for the bottom part of Indonesia, but I could fit Philippines. So I probably won't be adding them, I'll just add Malaysia and the outlines for Africa/Oceania.

Right now everything has been finished and I've tried to get it published but it has been rejected two times now due to missing connections although I made a test game and went over all of the territories twice to check missing connections. Does anyone have a clue what's missing?

Most likely because you drew many borders wrong and skipped some countries.

Abkhazia is not drawn
South Ossetia is not drawn
Artsakh is not drawn
Levant is not drawn
Donetsk is not drawn
Luhansk is not drawn
Kosova is not drawn

Crimea to Russia

Note: Many territories look like they come from the Lazy World school of naming; almost never begin a territory with a cardinal direction.

My advice for the Netherlands; name the regions, not the cities
Actual --> should be
Rotterdam --> Southern Netherlands
Amsterdam --> Holland (you might consider to keep the name Amsterdam, because you named all the capitals)
Enschede --> Eastern Netherlands
Leeuwarden --> Fryslân (or Friesland)
Groningen --> Groningen (it is a city and a region)

My advice for India
- Divide territory Mizopram into Mizopram and Tripura
- Consider Assam, Assam has more territories than the actual Assam province (Meghalaya is a seperate province)
- Eastern Megahalya should be Eastern Megahalaya
- Port Blair should be Andaman and Nicobar Islands (you could make another territories for the Nicobar Islands.
- Himachai Pradesh bonus contains the Himachai Pradesh and Indian Punjab. My suggestion would be to make 2 seperate bonusses.
- I miss the Lakshadweep Islands! They should be in the sea on the West side of India (somewere in the neabourhood of kerala)


Pakistan
- Eastern Pakistan --> Northern Punjab

Mongolia
- Darchan Uul should be a inside territory in Selenge
- Ulan Bator should be an insider territory in Tov (the actual Ulan Bator = Tov)

Others
- Northern Cyprus (you called it Nicosia) belongs to Turkey
- Crimea belongs to Russia (since last year)
- Vatican is missing
- I miss the Faroe Islands (north of Scotland)
- I miss the bonus for the COUNTRY Moldova
- Petropavlovsk-Kamchatskly, should be divided. The Islands you could call Kuril Islands

Furthermore
I like your style of drawing, keeping territories in a bonus together and seperate them from other bonusses
I would like to test your map if possible
