Hey Coleman....that's BAD luck eh?
I'm sorry to hear this has happened to you....I didn't know. :shock:
I can sympathise as I have had a smashed tibia, and now have a stainless steel plate in my leg with 9 pins holding it in place. I know the drama well.
May I offer you my prayers of well wishes for a quick recovery.

Gimil, below is V7 with the coloured names and dots.
Does this do anything for you? I have to find the right colours for the names and dots yet, but this will give you an idea. I don't want to move outside of the colour scheme i have going if i can get out it.

I disagree about the avatar thing.


About the map, don't you think there are way too many attack points? I count 5 territories that are not borders (not including the POW camps)

it is. you got a question. you ask the 8ball.
Edit: I realize it's your opinion cairns. I'm just being difficult. :p


About the map, since attacks can be made across the river, only

1. Ban Nong Pru, 2. Bo Phioi, 3. Nong Pru, 4. Ban Bak Dong, and 5. Tennaseri Range

do not border another continent. This excludes the POW camps of course

So edbeard....does it erally matter that they don't border another continent. they were put into those continents to beef them up and stop them from so linear, and i think it achieves that objective.

the legend doesn't say "attacks can be made across the river, only"
what it does MEAN is that if your terr borders a river section, you can attack to another terr across the other side of that section of the river.

Gimil...on a personal note....I have a scottish heritage on my mother's side of the family. For your interest is the below funeral notice of one of my clan elders (don't ask me what relation he was to me, but he was my mother's great uncle if that makes amy sense.
Today, my mother has been deceased 18 years, and I am sharing this with you ( you might like to read it later when sober :) )
(M E Toombs in the notice, was my grandmother)
Just a little bit of scottish history going down.....

Mr Craib was a native of Bankshire, Scotland, where he was born almost 71 years ago. He came to Australia over half a century ago, and finally made his home in the Herberton district, where he was engage as a cook.
Despite his age, deceased was in good physical condition. Recently his health was fairly good, and he was able to get about and enjoy life. On Wednesday he became ill and entered hospital on Saturday.
Mr Craib resided with his neice Mrs S. J. Davey, at East Innisfail. His sister, Mrs Helen Tarrant, died at Innisfail some years ago, and Mr Craib was the last member of the family, although there are a number of nephews and nieces. Mesdames S J Davey, M E Toombs (Lancelot), D O Robertson (Newcastle), H Brown (Hawthorne Brisbane) and the late Mrs J A Wolfe Snr of Mena Creek are neices. The nephews are Messrs James Forsythe (Innisfail), and James Badnock (Upper Barron).
The funeral moved from the Presbyterian Church on Sunday afternoon, being well attended by relatives and friends. The services were read by the Rev. S Dodd. The Pallbearers were Messrs A Forsythe, S J Davey, J A Wolfe Jnr, A Wardrop, W Wardrop.
The following tokens were placed on the grave:
Domes: Loving niece and nephew Jean and Jack and family, and Jim; members and staff of the Innisfail Radio Supply; Don, Maddie and children, Newcastle; J Wolfe and family.
Floral: Mr and Mrs W J Stitt and family; Mrs J McLaughlin and family; Innisfail Choral Society; loving nephew Jim Bunty and family, Upper Barron; Mr and Mrs J Waldon, South Johnston; Mr and Mrs D McGill and family; Nellie, Joss and family, Irvinbank; the Women’s Emergency War Service Committee; Jean and Jack Waldon and Toby and Elsie and Josie; Hellen and John; Jessie Howard and family, Brisbane; Mr T Carrick and Mr and Mrs A J Mazlin; F White, Gwen and Edna; the Wardrop Family; Maud and Mick and family; Mr and Mrs A Wilcox and family; the Puchard family; Mr and Mrs J Bavington, Tiny and Toby.
