    Superb work, Ascension.....a real beauty! You missed a trick with the Besmellah font though.....could have typed in something like, 'May your hair be infested by the fleas of a thousand camels'!!!

    Excellent job Ascension it is a very attractive map. I'm off to go check out the book information now.

    Yeah, we just couldn't come up with anything. Oh well, maybe next time.

    Come to think of it, this map is very different to your normal Ascension style, which makes it doubly impressive!
