I just wanted to mention that, from an artwork standpoint, I really like the game map. It has the right period "feel." The shading and hatching of the provinces and state borders really works and looks great, I REALLY like the way the state name will blend depending how much of the state each side has. Well Done Guys!

Have you had much dealing with the "River Provinces" yet? They're an interesting idea, and work well enough---but the "crowding" and "unit locations" can get to be a real mess during play...

Well that was a problem, I am slowly learning to where I need to click for the river provinces (it is frustrating though) the unit stacking is a real problem though, but as I said from an artwork standpoint, I like the map.
