    It looks fantastic Greg! I like the overall composition with the insets for the battles and the main map is a really great example for a neat and "well-readable" b/w piece. Looking forward to see the finished map!

    I really love the overall organization here. Reminds me of what some professional fantasy cartographer living in your world would produce for a world atlas.

    I'd say that you nailed it but you did so much more than that

    This is quite nice. I do have a couple of notes to give on the boxed text. If you aren't going to add a decoration to the right of it, "The War for the Isles" would probably be better off centered than left-justified. You also do have a slight error with "Two huges battles" instead of "Two huge battles".

    Is that border design an original? If not, where did you pick it up? It's quite a nice match to this map, but doesn't call anything to mind I've previously seen.

    Thanks, rdan, well spotted with the typo. Fixed it now! Border design is original, inspired by some of the maps on here, particularly Max's and Tainotim's.

    Okie doke, Mouse, if you insist...

    Not 100% sure on the colouring, it's a little rushed, a little bit different palette than I sometimes work with, and I'm just a little tired, but that's these challenges are for.

    I really like the color palette. It's beautiful and works well with the map.
