The changes are nice. I have to say that I have just re-read the thread and noticed that Matty's suggestion was not only to remove the ports but also to reduce the connectivity. I will think about it, but let me say that it is absolutely not a map that you can reach every territory in 4 hops, that wouldn't be great for deathmatch games in my opinion, but still I need to have regions not too much apart in order to have fair capital games... A middle way. I will provide an accurate game-play description as soon as the first basic version will be ready.
@Aeronautic - Changes are nice but I fear there is not enough place for texts and circles. For examples where the tag 'Mantova' is, a bridge should be there, also I think Bergamo will be probably a capital so with a white ring around that would cover the tag... I think we need to work on 1200 size as a HD map. I guess circles are always the same size in a HD map, only the map is bigger, so that it can grant us to have more place. (I guess but I'm not sure, because if the map is bigger and the circles too, so doesn't change anything, it would be just a matter of resolution and nothing else). Or if you want to fit it in a 1024 size I think the work will be hard to do.
@Urgul - I have a hunch why you wouldn't want to do it like a board on a table. But consider the map you wanted to do, it was almost upside-down. This is only a little rotation, plus with a table background giving the idea of a perspective image.
