Default Re: FAERUN: Map Update

Hi Edi,

thanks so very much for your time and effort, this all looks great.
Unfortunately, I did not have a chance to do any extensive testing (our wedding anniversary and other RL stuff), but these are just some minor questions I have so far related to the Faerun SMALL map, which I like much. I just basically did a fly-by view of your work. I am going to "save" really testing it for a few games when I have a chance.
I'd like to say that it looks wonderful and I think it is as nearly error-free as any map I have seen released. Still..... do you mind me making these tiny points?
(NOTE: all that follows pertains to Faerun-Small ALONE)

- provs 41 and 68 -- are you sure these are supposed to be neighbors?

- 241 and 251 arent neighbors, why? (since 228 and 251 are...)

- Ctis starting location has only 2 land neighbors (both of which are large farm lands, which for quickstart also makes for an odd imbalance)

- Machaka still seems to have a really huge starting point advantage (everything to the west is free....) -- perhaps make them start more to the west, or make that entire area contain fewer provinces?)

- Starbursts are VERYhelpful, although often confusable with towns (little black circles), and not always readily visible -- have you thought about perhaps making the starbursts yellow, or have a pixel of red or yellow or whatever in the middle or something, could be even more helpful?

- Quickstart: some provs are really really nice starting ones with lots of income, others not (compare: Ulm to Marignon)

Thanks tons!!!
