The maps here look awesome. I especially love how the Cold War map looks. The b&w tv, especially the frame is extremely clever and cool.

Whether you want to or not, this game site has the potential to be more than just fun & recreational, but also educational, which parents may encourage their children to play. Besides sharpening tactical skills, it's also a great way for children and teens, and even adults to get much better in Geography. That's why I think it's very important to correct the spelling mistakes on the maps, cards, and briefs, as not giving it importance has the opposite effect, and instead of being educational, the more people will play and see things spelled the wrong way, consciously and subconsciously it will impair their spelling.

Here are some mistakes which me and Sebrim pointed out in the past, and they remain uncorrected:

Yeah, I changed the name of the region you mentioned in the other post. Hopefully it will be reflected throughout the map, including the record tab.

Awesome.

When I first started this thread I was looking at the Cold War map, and how pretty it is, and I wanted to express that here, and then I remembered the needed corrections. Now that it's fixed, let's praise the maps for their beauty.

I mean, regardless of the map you prefer for whatever playability reason, let's have a beauty pageant contest for the maps.

Which map do you find most attractive?

My vote goes to the Cold War map.

Far east Asia is so vibrant. It definitely gets my vote.

Seconded.

I also think South America deserves mention. I really like the backdrop. Everything pulls together nicely.

I like the "fútbol" in the colors, and how it fits the flags, it's pretty, very creative, and suited to the theme.

I personally love the look and feel of the UK map (and the fact that I'm British makes no difference!). Someone seems to have got a good handle on the British colour schemes!
