Help with world map

[hohum]

Nice Map. I agree with Steel General, the transitions between terrain type are a bit jarring, especially the desert. Your labeling looks fine. Try adding an outline to the text over the lightest part of the desert. The drop shadow is not enough to keep it from washing out. I use a different font for cities vs. features vs. political, but that's just a personal preference. The river violation that jwbjerk is talking about is the Mere Aeturnum. It has an outlet at Pallas and another through Gloomwood. In nature you would not have both.

What if the rivers were far enough apart?

[Gamerprinter]

It doesn't matter how far apart the rivers are - only one will exit from the lake (notice our River Police badges) - this is geology and physics, that's how rivers work. The surface of water is one extended body of itself. As soon as a weak point along the shore allows the water to escape, all the water goes that way. If two exits exist, the one that allows the most outflow will be the one that eventually succeeds while the other one closes up - its all physics.

- its all physics.

And, "you canna change the laws of physics!"


except for magic.


or good engineering, which often seems like magic.
