This map looks nice and finished to me and ready to be released, unless there are complaints/ suggestions (?)

Dima this map is amazing - my highest compliments to you on a visually beautiful, strategically interesting, and intuitive map! One question for you: If you hold a naval fleet territory and 2 adjacent regions, do you still gain only +2, or do you gain +4? Oh, and another: With the Imperial Japanese flag and the Russian naval flag in use for the sea territories, is this map set in a certain time period? If so, I would add "circa 1900" (adjust date accordingly) somewhere on the map.

So they are present day flags.

Now that Virtuosity has highlighted the problem of the borders on the River Basins map, I see this one also has a similar problem. The coast line of the Kamchatka Peninsula is less black (or less dark) than the rest, especially the northern and western parts of Kamchatka. Perhaps it's just a light effect or some image in transparency, but as it looks now it doesn't look correct. Please Dima, try to make all lines the same black.

Yes, it looks perfect now! I'm going to load the new retouched version in 30 minutes or so. Edit: Either igmur website is overloaded or the computer I'm using has some bug. I'll try again later.

Wait, it is not perfect... There is still some impurity near Evenskiy and also near Bilibino. Dima, scan the whole map looking for any possible flaws please. I mean, overall it's a piece of art for me, just fix some the details. We don't need quickness, we need graphic quality. Take all the time you want until you are sure nobody can have anything to say about your map. For example, those black lines in the upper mini-map dividing the sectors aren't exactly great in my opinion. They should cover the entire border, or they should be removed; as they are now, they look like they're broken off in the middle... I don't know if it is clear what I mean. P.S. Still I cannot open igmur, sorry.

The "fog" on the lines is gone.

IBB works, that's nice,.. but you just sent a 1365 px version, if I scale it down to 1024 using Gimp3 then I lose a lot of the the image quality. Can you please sent a version 1024 px wide?
