Crusader Rex - New Map

[linlin]

Hello!
Here is my project of redo the map of the wargame Crusader Rex (http://www.columbiagames.com/cgi-bin/query/cfg/zoom.cfg?product_id=3226)

this was the included map:

it is quite well done, but i disliked the use of too colorfull palette here.. so i tried to make a more "medieval" looking map:
it's still a WIP, but it's getting close too be finished..
i'm curious of what you think about it!

[Ascension]

I like this very much. I can't think of anything that I'd change - great job, man.

[Immolate]

Agreed, very appealing. The 3d text doesn't really flow though. Small thing though.

[Jaxilon]

That's really nice. I like it better than the original one.

[jbgibson]

I like it, that's what I think :-). A lot.

[Clercon]

Really nice done and much better then the original in my opinion. Now I have yet another reason to buy that game (good looking map). I've had my eyes on it for a long time and it seems to be a lot of fun.

[Steel General]

Nicely done...

Fantastic work. You nailed that early 20th century look. It could have been torn out of a textbook from 1920!

Makes me want to play the game too. I even own it, but havent played it yet. There never seems to be enough time to play war-games these days. Instead I just seem to buy them and read the rules.

[Greenhorn]

Should be Aleppo instead of "Allepo".
You may also push "Qaddas(h?)" away from the frame.

I would make the "ends" of the rivers more tapering.
