Alright for 2v2s. Imbalanced (Scotland > England > Ireland). 2/5 for strategy, 5/5 for beauty.

Review by BearsBeetsBattlestarGalactica on 3/18/2012.
A very good map. One of the "hidden gems" of Warlight. Should be used more than it is. Great for medium length games of 30-45 minutes. Some of the bonuses (especially the Scotland bonus) are worth more than they should be, and some (like Ireland) worth less than they should be. A great map for 2v2 or 3v3 team games. Not so great for large Free-for-Alls or for games with auto-distribute territories. Overall, very well done, historically accurate. 4/5

Review by Gordo on 4/1/2012.
Good Map, but controlling Scotland makes victory almost inevitable due to its defensibility and the number of reinforcements it grants you. This is slightly unbalanced, due to it consisting of a mere 14 territories. Its worth adjusting down the number of reinforcements it grants.

Really like this map though as pointed out by others it is very unbalanced. I started in Scotland and had double the incom of the other players by turn 6.

Review by Akhoya on 11/1/2012.
Great map! It's balanced well. The only criticism I have is that Kildare is connected to Westmeath, which should not be the case according to the map.

Great map to play on. My only criticism is that the bonuses for Ulster and especially Leinster are disproportionately low.

Nice map, but the isles and cities bonus is pretty hard to get and/or useless :-/

A nice map, although the territories in England/Scotland are too small in comparison to the territories in Ireland.

One of my favourite maps. Sometimes I wonder wether it's balanced enough, but all locations make for interesting strategy.

Review by mhc4444 on 8/21/2013.
im very pleased with the structure of this map, it provides the oppotunity to play both on fairly simple areas, with territories touching only 1 or 2 others, as well as complicated areas with territories touching multiple others. and its one of the map this neewbie have actually won a game on. hehe

Review by Seleukos on 5/9/2017.
Nice, detailed map of Great Britain and Ireland, but there's a connection between Kildare and Westmeath, in Leinster, that's not at all apparent from their (lack of) border on the map.

Review by JustAGoose on 4/2/2021.
Territories are completely unbalanced. Absolutely terrible game when you win because you started in a place with a 5 territories for 5 bonus and your opponent has 12 for 6.

Review by Keith on 6/2/2021.
Awesome smaller map with lots of armies. high territory numbers makes it a high numbers game, but it plays rather fast. I played with 6 players and it ran smooth. I enjoyed it. Could be played if you have limited time... a game only took me about 20 mins.
Overall, a great quick map if you're short on time.
A++++++

Review by LeChevalier on 3/8/2014.
That's an amazingly unbalanced map. Bonuses in England give same number of armies as territories they have, whilst in Ireland a bonus like Leinster gives only 6 armies for 12 territories ! In addition, the Big cities bonus is quite meaningless.
