These are both gorgeous. I have to admit it's just a wee bit odd that all the kingdoms seem to have cleared the majority of their land of trees, but that's just a technicality. And of course it could be entirely due to a personal weirdness for forests I suppose ^.^ No matter what the reason is (and you don't need one) these are some fantastic maps. I just slightly (and only slightly) prefer the second one because it clearly indicates borders - and even indicates maritime control! - but the first one is really just as amazing. You've got me hooked; definitely looking forward to those other continents. Saved and repped ^.^

haha Alizarine, the only excuse I can give you is, the forests have a tendency to "lash back" most of the ruins were once part of the kingdoms now shown, so as the forest reclaimed land the kingdoms got pushed inward to their central location (of the most cleared portion of woods) If that makes sense.... Needless to say the people underestimated the woods and fear them...

Katto Thanks for the comments, and the symbols are a as you said "not very intuitive" but it was a lack of creativity on my part, and laziness =D haha plus I wanted something I could replicate and fast, to place all the icons (once I got the combo I liked) it took like 5 mins so yeah.... Thanks though!

Great stuff. I love a map that not only looks good but has you wanting to explore right away. I'm duley impressed, have a rep-whack.
