Default New Large Map Latus

This is a map made using mostly photoshop. It has been play tested somewhat, but it's not perfect. Unfortunately I am very lazy and I am easily distracted by other projects so it will likely never be at the level I want it. Because of the shear size I have had to split it up into different archives in order place it here on the forums and not have to go through megaupload or rapidshare. Comments are appreciated and I will try to fix things a little as they are reported.

Here is a lovely preview

All I can say is wow. This is one of the most original maps that I have seen graphically and conceptually. It is obvious that you have invested a lot of thought and creativity in this project. I look forward to exploring the world of Latus.

Again... ...wow...

Alderanas,
If you are a windows user, you can download a trial version of WinRAR from here:
http://www.rarlab.com/

(It used to be shareware with a nag screen after the trial was over. Not sure if that is still the case in newer versions or not.)

This Latus map could use that Indy Defense to catch stealthy armies trying to sneak past the guardian provinces to reach the outer worlds.

Some (all?) of the rocky "asteroid" provinces have no terrain - they look like they might want to be mountain terrain, no?

Edit: Never mind - they are mountains - I just didn't realize the forces I were moving were all mountain folk or fliers.

Apparently I was accidentally right the first time. Indepts can patrol.

There are two methods. One for getting out-of-the-castle defenders. And one for PD as far as catching scouts.
Using the #defence on indept provinces will catch stealthy units.
