    I agree with timallen, it looks great just the lines could be brought out.

    That's a really nice Risk-type map. I agree with Timallen and Heintzer about making the contiguous lines more prominent, so that they stand out with more visual impact.

    The map, itself, features subdued colors, and the new province names provide a fresh departure from the standard fare Risk map. Imagination in the form of unique province names is always a plus, I think.

    The key, itself, doesn't distinguish the map much, in terms of how many armies does control of each respective continent provide. But, that's a relatively minor nitpick, since emulating Risk is a basic goal.

    The oceans provide a nice visual touch, enhancing the overall look of the map. The border works well with the map, also.

    Slylok I do love this map and the idea. I'm a big fan of Risk though not so much the new board so drawing your own is a great idea. Do you have any ideas for how you're going to print it out and mount it for play?

    I've also had the dream of drawing a big risk map on a wall and painting over it with Idea Paint Clear Dry Erase Whiteboard Paint for Home, School, and Work | IdeaPaint so it's then possible to play a game of Risk using white board pens.

    This looks awesome! I wish I could learn more about the world behind it.

    Thanks a lot everyone! I'm glad you like this one.

    Do you have any ideas for how you're going to print it out and mount it for play?
    I had planned on taking it down to the print shop and then gluing it to a board made of three sections of hard cardboard, fabric, and glue. Your idea sounds a lot more fun. I may do that when I get my own man cave.
    I dream of a world where chickens can cross the road without their motives being questioned...
