	Lack of England! Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

Geezus...


We all know that the 'hug'e world map has England merely as a few tiles... but hey, take a look at the 'regular' sized one... ENGLAND IS NOT EVEN INCLUDED!!!

We definately need more maps.

	Cartography.... Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

What you see there, is the southern tip of Scandinavia, and pretty much all of France and the low countries. See that curve there to the left with all the forest.?....Bay of Biscay. That small patch in the lower left is the Canary islands... and that big mass of water... is England!

You mean that Norway is the tile in the top?

	to clear it up... Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

Here is another shot of Europe...

What you see here is France, Low countries, Western Germany, Spain, Italy, bits of the Adriatic Sea. You can see the tip of Africa near Gibraltar. I would say that about 1 tile north of where it says 'player start' is where Paris should be located. It really isn't pretty.

It's probably Madeira, but it could also be Madeira + the Canaries melted together. But I wouldn't be surprised if it's supposed to be Cuba

This map is quite amusing

I hope that's only the south island of New Zealand!

And as for Australia, my place of birth is designated, not as flat desert, but as a mountain!!! The only river worth mentioning is non-existent, Firaxis has shocked both the palaeontological world with the discovery of horses in Australia and the geological world with the "Tasmanian shift", and i won't even mention the continental shelf reaching all the way to New Zealand!

I suppose with England not actually having any land mass, Australia is populated with once-marine colonists who still show their underwater roots by drinking copious amounts of beer

Actually, the patch in the southwest corner, near Spain, that people are calling the Canaries is six tiles. I'm pretty sure that's supposed to be Britain...small, mis-shaped, out-of-place...but Britain nonetheless. Aside from this, the smaller map is slightly less bad than the "huge" map, IMHO.

It doesn't look that out of place on the mini-map, am I right?

At least the huge world map's mini-map looks almost normal opposed to the "play-map" which looks like ****.

Is it just me or is the second image posted by FMK completely off base.....not just because England's not there, but because the entire European continent is out of proportion, tilted falsely, and just skewed to some really odd degree
