ORIGINAL: Shannon V. OKeets Here are the revised straits icons. In the upper left you can see that the sea area boundary and straits icons now have zero overlap. Well, there is no more overlap, but now that the graphic is offset on one side, it gives the false impression that the strait from Frederikshavn to the southwest hex only crosses the Baltic Sea Area, while it also cross the North Sea. This gives the false impression to the player observing the map that he can cut the supply between both hexes through the strait by cutting the supply throught the Baltic Sea alone, while he will have to also cut it in the North Sea. Missleading, isn't it ? I've tried a mock up with a wider centered double arrow for the strait hexside double arrow, but this is not very pretty. What about putting the present double arrow one time on each side of the sea area boundary ? What about also, having this double arrow a bit shorter ? Say, 30% shorter, with maybe a head 50% larger ? Here is an attempt at showing an alternative idea. [image]local://upfiles/10447/0DB2176798E04E83925993754AC5B9F9.jpg[/image]
