    Phew....nearly there. I'm not sure the border works very well, and I need to do something about all that dead space in the bottom left and finish off the fortress properly. The end's in sight!

    I think the border is fine, it's simple, doesn't draw the eye, and conveys what it needs to.

    Just fill up the dead space with farmland or miscellaneous trees n rocks.

    Cheers Guys, there were a few things bugging me about the map, (hated the red district names) but I think I've sorted them now and it's finished (yay!) Final version posted in the finished maps gallery.

    I hate to say this so late in the game, but I could sack this city so easily. The north is completely exposed as it has no killing grounds.

    Were I duke of this city the walls would all have a clear killing ground out to 500 yards filled with growing straw. This would make the approach of infantry slow and hard. The fields would have random pattern 1 ft tall walls and random pitfalls to make the approach of siege engines impossible.

    Other wise the map looks nice.
